Oh, man, I feel like I hardly know where I'm at these days. 😵💫😵
We had some strange and unfortunate things happen this week:
First, one guy we had found who wanted to be baptized randomly left for a job he heard about in Chicago. We figured out when we passed by his house and found his drunk buddy on a video call with him. That's just how it goes sometimes.
Secondly, the grandparents of that family we found, Ana and Jose, were going to be baptized this past Sunday, but we came by to see how things were going Saturday night and they said they weren't going to be baptized anymore. 😀🤪
But Ana still came to church with her daughter and some of the grandkids, so we're kinda thinking it's mostly Jose that's getting cold feet. We'll see if we can keep teaching them.
Other than that, we're still doing good, the work is proceeding, and I see every day ways how the Lord is helping us and helping His lost sheep.
I as well feel evermore confident and comfortable in my Spanish speaking and teaching ability, which maybe isn't a good thing; nothing good every comes from being complacent...
Anyways, I read a really awesome talk by Dallen H. Oaks from October 2021 called The Need for a Church.
I love the way he explains how necessary it is to attend church, I would like to invite anyone who maybe doesn't quite understand why they go to church, or would just like to understand better the purpose of a church to read this talk and sincerely seek what more you can do to make Sabbath worship more personally meaningful to you. I promise it will give you a renewed desire to follow Jesus Christ!
If you don't wanna read all that, we also provide a comic version:
Love you all, I'd love to hear from some of you soon! Byeee!
