Anyway, we had the baptism of Fernando. I'm going to send the picture. Went well. I hope you get these. I'm doing fine.
We had a pretty good week last week with the baptism. And another pretty good week this week. Honestly I don't have much time, but I'll tell you what I can.
On Tuesday we found two old guys, 70 years old the two of them. Usually we teach older people and they just don't care, or they don't want to change cause they are old. But these two were very interested to talk to us. The 1st lesson we didn't teach the Restoration, we taught the 3rd or the Gospel of Jesus Christ. It went really well, they liked it. Then the next time we passed by we taught the Restoration and the spirit was really strong. They promised to read and pray, and go to General Conference. And they did all of the 3. That was pretty fantastic. We were pretty excited. They felt the spirit during the conference. One of them told us, ¨the difference between you guys and the others, is that your not lying.¨ I thought that was pretty funny. We talk to them tomorrow. Should be good.
We had a really good lesson with Julia and Ezekiel. We started the lesson but Ezekiel had left cause he wanted to do something else I guess, so it was us and Julia and the grandpa. But during the lesson we felt we had to talk to Ezekiel.
We have been trying to get them married. They want to, but Ezekiel wants to wait till like April. Whew. So we wanted to see if we could help him to see why its important to do it now.
So we called him back, and had a great lesson. He felt the spirit and said that Julia could go get the date from the city for the marriage. We were pretty stoked. But worried as well cause they didn't go to conference. We have a cita right now with them. So that should be good.
Lucas, we are worried about. He hasn't dropped us, but we couldn't have a single lesson and he didn't go to church..... we will see what happens this week.
Fransico is doing great. He went to conference and When Jeffery R. Holland was talking he couldn't break away. He was super absorbed. Which is good, ha ha. He really felt the spirit there. We have a baptismal date for the 20th of October. This one should happen.
Conference was great. We start at 1 and then at 5, little different. Kills most of out work day. But its always good to hear the prophet and such. I was pretty stoked to hear about change in missionaries. That will be great. I think they want more sisters to go, ha ha. Which is great since they are better then the Elders, ha ha.
I hope Mitt Wins. I think ill hear about it from someone here, ha ha. I guess we will see
If you get pictures of our house you should send it to me and and new house as well.
Oh, and I have to start to collect information, the office sent me a paper that I have to fill out, but I forgot it at our house. But its all our house phone and direction information. Then as well the bishops name, stakes name, and that stuff, then where you want me to fly into. So think about that stuff.
I won ice cream today. A kid in our branch challenged me to a 100m race today for p-day. Just so you know, ha ha.
Anyway I hope you get this email.
Love ya,
Elder Obray
