Most of our investigators this week have been progressing pretty well! Magela is already so prepared so we changed her date to a week earlier, so that she can be baptized with Gonzalo, who we are teaching separetly on the other side of our area, but it turns out they are cousins! They are planned to be baptized this weekend. The flia Villegas came to church again, so they are progressing to their date May 12th! Honestly, we have quite a few people we are currently teaching and so we havent had all that much time this week for finding.
I had a meaningful experience this week! So three months ago we had something called a `choca de fuerza` where a bunch of missionaries all go to work in one area. I remember that I went with Elder Donati out to contact in Barrio Artigas. Well, we found someone named Anthony, and for the last three months, he has been listening to the missionaries there. Well, I went back over there for divisions this week with Elder Ellis. Well, we met with Anthony, and he told us about a miracle answer that he had to his prayers, and how he knew Jospeh Smith was really a prophet of God. So he decided he wanted to get baptized, even though he has been a member of another church his whole life. We had his baptismal interview with him right then, and he was seriously so happy. After the interview, he gave me a big hug, held on, and told me,`Thank you so much for finding me`
Anyways, the mission is amazing. Miracles occur every day. Love you guys so much!!!
