Manuel is getting baptized this sunday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! we found out he hadn't been drinking recently and decided to ask him about baptism and what would be stopping him from taking that step..he said he wanted more knowledge of the church first...Emilia (his wife) told us to ask him the baptismal interview questions so we dropped everything and whipped out the questions. He knew and bore powerful testimony of every single point! at the end we invited him to be baptized this next sunday and he pauses for a second...then looks me straight in the eyes and says, "Si, Voy a hacerlo!!" (Yes, Im going to do it!) YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It took everything in my power not to tackle that man in a bear hug!!! i am so so SOOO happy for him and for his family and how its going to bless their lives and others lives for years to come!!!! AND THE BEST PART IS: Manuel (his son) is going to get the priesthood this sunday and be able to BAPTIZE HIS DAD!!!! the church is so true...its unreal..i love this..MIRACLES STILL HAPPEN!!
okay..so
now that im not exploding with that amazing news...remember Irvin? the less active that wants to be president of the united
states?? so we go to meet with him at
the bench like we always do..and he takes out his backpack..and proceeds
to whip out a bi-lingual bible (nice), the Book of Mormon we gave him
(sweet), and then....an 800 page autobiography of Abraham
Lincoln...you could tell which one he read the
most ;) but it doesnt stop there! he then asks us to interpret his
dream...i politely told him that Heavenly Father
doesnt always communicate to us through dreams, although we talked about Lehi's dream for a while, which he liked. he DID come to church this sunday and absolutely LOVED the testimony meeting and is committed to bear his testimony next month! vamos a ver!
oh..i
learned how to crochet. and the lady teaching me (who we were
going to extend a baptismal date to) doesn't seem very interested in the gospel right now, but we'll see! you never
know!
read helaman 16 about Samuel the Lamanite!!! God isn't asking US to go stand on a wall and call people to
repentance..he just wants us to live what we know and share it when we
can...and he will protect us!!
hope yall had a HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!!! love you all bunches!
paz y bendiciones,
hermana hull
