Opening The Windows Of Heaven
Hey guys!
What a great past few weeks it has been! I guess I will start off with some of the funny and cool news first. First off, you know what I found out? The main facility for the company "La Costeña" is right here in my zone across the canal from my area! Cool stuff. We always buy their salsas in the markets when we decide to make some tacos for dinner. Second thing. You won`t believe what I ate! I ate elote! That is the corn on a stick thing that Nacho`s sidekick eats and loves in the movie Nacho Libre. It`s pretty good, and simple! Boiled corn on a stick with mayonaise, cheese, and chili powder! Yum.
Well, now time for the even greater news! I finally bought a new camera! Yay! Ok, now for even greater news! Elder Lozano and I baptized and confirmed 7 people in the month of January! Yaaay! I think you already know about Guadalupe being baptized, so I will skip on that. We baptized this cool guy named Pablo, who before was an atheist but some event in his life led him recently to start believing in God again and looking for truth. That`s when we came! Yeah! Isn`t it so neat how God prepares people to receive the gospel? So we baptized him and now he even has the Aaronic Priesthood! Wow. Next, we baptized two little twins who just completed 8 years. They are grandkids of a recent convert grandmother so it was great having that gospel base already started there. Their names are Juan and Charly. Then, we baptized two other kids of a member. They are really cool and buena onda (this just means basically the same thing as really cool, but in Spanish. I just felt like doing that). Their names are Ismael and Zac-qui. Then! Later we baptized a guy named Jorge! He is a cool guy and is the brother of one of our current investigators who is getting baptized soon too. Yay for families! Yesterday, we also had another baptism for a kid named Alfredo. He was a blessing from God to us. He is a son of a member famiy who got baptized back in August or something like that. But, he was rebelious and didn`t follow the others in being baptized. Ever since Elder Lozano had baptized that family, he always said no, but one evening this past week we were walking and didn`t have any appointments, so we decided to stop by and visit the family and maybe see if he wanted to be baptized. Well, we went and then he told us he wanted to be baptized! Yay for revelation and guidance!
Well, that`s all for this week. I`m doing great and hope you all are doing great too! I love you all!
¡Ten fe y se obediente!
Todo mi amor,
Elder San Diego
