The Call to Serve: Week 23 ALREADY!

Dear Family,

Yesterday I hit month 5! Wow time passes quickly, truly this time to serve the Lord is so short,

So lots happened this week. This Wednesday we did some service for the familia Rincon. Hermano Rincon got robbed the other day, he was unharmed but decided to take some precautions. We cleared his yard and his field of shrubbery and trees so no ladrones (thieves) can sneak up on him again. Wielding a machete, I was very cautious, I felt of bit like Clayton from Tarzan. It was awesome to serve and afterward we shared a brief message with the family. The whole family is members menos Hermano Rincon. He´s had multiple baptismal dates but struggles with his addiction to alcohol and smoking. His family wants him to be baptized badly, We have faith that in time his heart will soften.

This Friday we had an intercambio, Elder Dias went to Los palmares and our district leader Elder Rivero spent the next twenty four hours in la Victoria. It was awesome, Elder Rivero and I had an awesome lesson with this new family Elder Dias and I have been teaching. We shared a message about the Book of Mormon and its importance and the spirit was super strong. Elder Rivero and I testified of the importance of the Book of Mormon and then invited them to be baptized, and they accepted! Now we just have to get them to come to church! The rest of the day was super busy but great!
