Good Week (Week 74)

Elder Call, Yael, Elder Herman

      Good week! We got to see the baptism of Yael Santillan Solano! It was a very good experience. We sang some great primary hymns and his mom also was able to be there! Yael is awesome and said an amazing closing prayer! He is a good example to others as well and is always wanting to do the right. I gave him the famous HLJ (CTR) ring and explained it to him and he says he is never going to take it off! He is now part of the squad, haha. We also went with an investigator named Hugo. Freddy talked to him about the church when he was putting in a new tv network and he is golden! We taught him about baptism and he was really excited, but he's not married. So we talked to him about that and he said it was in his plans, but he wants his wedding to be like a movie. So we got really excited telling him that after he gets married by the law, and 1 year after their baptisms, he will be able to get married in a castle for time and all eternity! I love temples! So he is really excited and has been coming to church the last 3 weeks! Man I love this gospel so much! I love helping other people know of the amazing blessings that God has given us!

Spiritual Thought Of The Week

      Well this week as a mission we fasted. I have a lot of trust in the power of fasting and I know it works! We also went with Omar last night and we are going to fast so that he can receive an answer for when he should be baptized. I know that God will see his effort and bless him with an answer. Fasting is something we can do when we need something specific. We ask for specific things, put in our part, and then we see miracles! It is something simple but that is hard enough to be worth it! Geez, God is good! I love being a missionary and helping others come to Christ! I hope we can all call on the powers of Heaven and receive the blessings we need and that God wants to give us!
