Thanks for the email. Sounds like things seem to be going pretty good back home there. Our old house actually looks pretty good with a red Garage, ha ha. Not to bad.
Sounds like you ll have a pretty interesting week moving and everything. I Hope it all goes well.
We had a pretty good week this week. Lots of things to do.
Julia, is progressing super well. We had a few good lessons. We should know TODAY, when they are getting married. They wanted to get married this week. So if that happens we will have a baptism this week. That would be fantastic. So we are pretty happy with what is going on there.
Juan and Alberto, the two older guys are doing well as well. They went to church and really enjoyed it. They have read and prayed and felt the spirit. So we are working towards baptism on the 27th of Oct. If all goes well it will happen. Really good guys.
Fransico should have gotten baptized this week, but he didn't go to church Sunday. We have a lesson at 7 tonight with him, I guess we will see what happens. He knows what he should do, but he is scared to do it.
Lucas dropped us, it was sad cause he was progressing really good. He wouldn't tell us why either. Said it was cause he didn't have time. But we think otherwise.
We had zone conference on Friday. That was really good. We almost have 1000 baptisms in the mission. If every companionship baptizes 3 before the end of the year we will get 1000. That would be great. It would be the best year in like 20 years or so. I sent a picture of our zone.
We did service on Saturday for Ezekiel. He has a Lot and tons of brick on it. We helped him organize the brick for his house for a few hours. That was good.
Some bad news, one of the few Priesthood holders we have here died today at 6 in the morning. He was hospitalized for internal blocking Wednesday and after the operation they didn't give him very long to live. He was a good guy. We went to his funeral. They had it today. They had it fast.
We had 5 investigators go to church, ha ha. One was a surprise. We passed by a less active member Saturday night, and while we were talking one of their family friends came in, so we talked a bit with her, and invited them all to go to church. Well the surprise was they all came together. When they walked in I almost went in shock. But it was good anyway.
We have lots of work to do here. But all in all the area is doing really good.
Yesterday a group of 14 year olds called us over. Which isn't really uncommon, ha ha. Since they are bored and want to chat and laugh at something right? Ha ha. So we talked to them for a bit. We had actually taught one of them and his mom before. He really liked the messages but never went to church. Invited all of them to church and to get baptized. They said yes, and we fixed to pass by tomorrow. I guess we will see what happens. Could be good. Cause we really need some youth here.
Anyway that's more or less what happened over here this week. Went pretty well. And I think it will continue going pretty well.
Anyway have a good week. I Hope moving and such goes well. I'm excited to be able to see the new house.
Love ya
Elder Obray
