Baptism

What's up, everyone! Pretty good week. Man, is the time flying past? Every week seems shorter than the last.


Had a few exchanges. We went to another city in the Chaco, and they gave no AC. We literally died that day, haha. Also, our ZLs came, and I got to be with my MTC comp for the day. Pretty much everything fell through, but we found a great family, so that was good.


Jisel, Karina, and Gisella got baptized. Not gonna lie, it was one of the best baptisms I've had in the mission so far. They literally don't understand anything we say, but they're very dedicated to following Christ. We taught them about temples the day before their baptism, and we showed them a picture, and they were just absolutely mesmerized. They told us that they want to go really bad. It was so cool and made me realize that we often take the temples for granted.


Cool experience. Yesterday we went pretty far, like 3 hours of walking but on bikes. We found some really good people. But our tire popped, and then our backup tire as well. There was nobody around, and it was like 115 degrees outside. We had drunk all of our water, and there was nobody around, so we were basically going to die. So we prayed. We had the impression to try to pump up the tire. So we did, and it filled up. And we rode, and it didn't deflate. We made it home just fine. It was a big miracle. God is really looking after us, and I'm glad that happened.


That's about it. Next week, we'll have heard about transfers, so we'll see what happens. See you next week!

Hello everyone! How's it going? I hope you all had a great week this week. I had a really great week. Nothing too crazy or out of the norm, just working like crazy as usual. This week I got to do 2 exchanges which was awesome. I love doing exchanges because I learn so much and I build relationships with other missionaries. We had an exchange with a companionship called Yvy ja'u which means we eat dirt in guarani. I stayed here in pjc but Saturday morning I had to leave at like 4 in the morning to go pick up my companion and then come back. That took like 8 hours in total and I was completely dead the whole day haha. So basically all of our friends that were progressing are now not progressing, and so we had to drop like 15 people at the start of this week. That was kind of discouraging but we kept working and man did the Lord bless us. We contacted a guy in the street and he told us that he had never heard of the missionaries before but his cousin is a member and he had interes...
