SQUAD!!!!!!!!!!!!! It was crazy! This last week, things just kinda worked out, and we had a baptism!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!
So you know how a few weeks ago we baptized a little girl named Mia? Well Saturday we baptized her mom too!!!!! Go team. You know a lot of stuff was goin on, things that were pretty difficult, but you know what happens when we endure through tough times? God blesses us, and that is what happened. We are so darn happy. Soooo it was a weird week, we went on exchanges for 3 straight days, it was nuts, and it was raining every single day. It was sick, I was with Elder Botehlo, and we had pretty good success. One day we found 7 new people and set 4 new baptismal dates. It was pretty sick.
Ohhhh also when we were on exchanges, we were all in one area, and someone came and knocked on our door, and the four of us went to answer the door, and we opened it, there were 2 Jehovah Witness missionaries standing there, and this young man with a look of fear on his face, said " Ohhhh you´re Mormons" then he said sorry to bother you and they left. It was a pretty funny experience.
To end I just wanna share a scripture from D&C 97:
7 The ax is laid at the root of the trees; and every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit shall be hewn down and cast into the fire. I, the Lord, have spoken it.
8 Verily I say unto you, all among them who know their hearts are honest, and are broken, and their spirits contrite, and are willing to observe their covenants by sacrifice— yea,every sacrifice which I, the Lord, shall command—they are accepted of me.
9 For I, the Lord, will cause them to bring forth as a very fruitful tree which is planted in a goodly land, by a pure stream that yieldeth much precious fruit.
I know that if we are willing to keep our covenants with God, with whatever sacrifice he requires, he will make us a fruitful tree. We will bring to pass much good in the world. I have experienced this more times than I can count during my mission.
