This week passed by quickly because we worked hard. We found lots of amazing people to teach this week. We found a family with a 7 year-old and two adorable 1 year-old twin boys. We were able to bring them to church yesterday. We haven´t started teaching anything to them, yet; we just focused on getting them to church. We will start teaching them this week!

We also found two sisters who live together. They are 15 and 24 years old. The older one has three young boys. They had a baptism date set for this next weekend, but we had to move it to the following week because they couldn´t make it to church.

We also found a single mom with a 3 year-old daughter last night. We entered just to do a prayer, but ended up teaching the Restoration lesson and leaving a Book of Mormon with her. She is very excited to read and find out it´s true for herself!

We were blessed with a baptism yesterday. His name is Samuel. He was actually baptized a long time ago, but never received the gift of the Holy Ghost, making the baptism incomplete. We had to baptize him again to set things straight, being that it wasn´t done correctly the first time. Lot´s of people don´t know that baptism has two parts: baptism by water AND by the Holy Ghost. In John 3:5, it says:

“Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.”  The water cleanses and the spirit sanctifies and the Holy Ghost is our constant companion.

Have a great week everyone!

Love,
