¡Otro Bautismo!

What a week! It went by much too quickly.
Some highlights from this week: we met a super neat guy called Emeterio. He's awesome and he's totally prepared to receive the Gospel! He told us he loves reading his Book of Mormon (given to him from another set of missionaries) and basically as soon as he can figure out his work schedule so he doesn't have to work on Sunday, he'll be ready. :) super cool! Tuesday we found Girl Scout cookies! Always a plus ;) Then Wednesday was our weekly service (love it!!) and my 6 month mark (???? Where did the time even go???) and Moises had his baptismal interview! Moises is a 14-year-old kid whose mom was less active for quite a few years. He's incredibly shy, but he's great :) and he and his mom have been coming to church ever since we started teaching him. It's awesome!
On Friday Hna Wells felt super nasty so we had to stay in for a while which was a bummer, but I had a few extra hours to just study the scriptures :) my goodness there's so much to learn! I LOVE the scriptures <3 we also got to drive over a cool old bridge that's apparently fairly famous and was used in the Batman movies (!!!)

Saturday Moises was baptized!!! Ah it was so great. His uncle got to baptize him and it was so awesome. We're so proud of Moises for choosing to take this step :) Right after his baptism we had to book it to a meeting for the whole mission at the office in Arcadia, and then we squished weekly planning in after that. So it was a good start to the day, but then a reeeeeaaaaaally slow end to it. Oh whale. But Sunday Moises was confirmed and now he's a member! Woohoo!! :)
It was such a good week :) I love love LOVE being a part of this work and being able to see the light of the Gospel fill peoples' lives. It's truly a blessing for me to be an instrument in the Lord's hands in bringing about this great work.
