This Week Was Just Electric!
Hola amigos!!!
It’s been
another good week out here in Alex.
Unfortunately,
Jordan has been out of town and a lot of the people we found a few weeks ago
haven’t been able to meet. But we’ve still had some good successes this
week!
We found
this awesome young Hispanic guy from Texas while tracting the other day. He
came to church on Sunday to check it out! So, we had something super bizarre happen
yesterday. Someone was up at the stand, speaking as normal when the microphone
cut out all of a sudden. A few seconds later it started making this loud
buzzing noise. All the counselors tried to fix it, but the noise just got
louder! Then after about 4 minutes, it sounded like something was going to
explode! Haha. So, everyone evacuated the room, and the bishop was trying to
pull any plug he could find to the microphone. We stood out in the hall for
about 10 minutes, and it finally stopped. Turns out, the electric organ short
circuited!! Hahaha. Something was frying up inside, and when we got back inside
you could smell it. Never had that happen before hahaha. Definitely an
interesting first visit for Ruben!
We had an
amazing exchange on Tuesday. We had 4 lessons and gave away 6 copies of the Book
of Mormon that day!
We’ve been
having some success with our Spanish group too. One of the highlights of the
week was that we had the baptism of Milo’s boys, Reyes and Mariano!! It was so
amazing to see the joy on Milo’s face being able to baptize his own sons. And
he was baptized just two months ago! It was a sweet experience, and now our Spanish
families are getting excited about sharing the gospel and inviting others too.
So hopefully we can kindle some member missionary fire here to help the Spanish
group!
It’s been
such a privilege and blessing to be able to serve the people here - Spanish
speaking or non-Spanish speaking. And above all, it has been a life-changing
experience to serve my Savior Jesus Christ. I love Him so much!
Hope you
all have a fantastic week! Love ya
