ya its pretty sad to be honest!! this is going to be my last week with elder torres! he and i have literally worked out butts off this change, and its going tobe pretty hard to say goodbye to him, but changes are always super cool! there is some gossip going around the mission, so we are going to see where i get put next!!
but this past week, we were able to baptize three more souls!! i had the opportunity and the blessing to baptize manuel, and it was my first time ever baptizing someone! i wasliterally scared out of my mind becuase sometimes chilenos have like 7 names that you have to pronounce correctly, but luckily he only had 4 names, so i was ok. he left the water literally so happy! we also had the opportunity to baptize gabriela and matilda, who are a mom and a daughter. they decided to come to church and be part of the path of god! gabriela stopped smoking by her self, and put so much strength in order to obey the word of wisdom. so many members showed up and supported our converts as well! too good too grand. other than that, we have been helping our next converts get ready for their baptisms. rosie, jean paul, and paulette are going to get baptized this upcoming sunday. we have been passing by trying to finish the lessons with them and trying to help them out with some of the bigger lessons. a really cool experience though! so we were teaching rosita about eternal families and the power of the temple. she has a kid with no husband or boy friend to help her out, and she had vowed that she was never oing to date again, nor find anyone else to share her life with. after we taught the lesson on eternal families, she kind of realized how important it is to have a family and get sealed in the temple! she then made the decision that she is going to find someone worthy to get married to, and then ask us for help so we can teach this guy and help them get sealed! hahahaha #obramisionalconinvestigadores. gotta scram....but i will see you guys next week with a new compy!
