Tuesday the 3rd:
We had a cita with Carlos and TWO of his sisters!! Okay okay so this night at about 8:30 our obispo texted us and said.......he had the permission from Carlos's mom to get baptized AND (!!!!!) IT WAS GOING TO BE THIS SATURDAY!! Um yes. We had 4 days to plan a baptism! haha! It was the biggest miracle because before I got here, they could never find Carlos, and then as soon as we were able to start teaching him, his mom said he needed 5 more months of going to church before he could be baptized. We have fasted and prayed A LOT for Carlos because he has such a special testimony. We cried, we couldn't believe it!!!
Wednesday the 4th:
We were able to talk one of our less active members of our ward through a drinking problem. The gospel of Jesus Christ can heal any wound. I testify of that!! We had divisions with the hermana caps and we love them so much!!
Thursday the 5th:
We had an entrevista for Carlos with the Zone leader and our District leader! He PASSED!!!! Then we headed to my medical appointment! Adjusting to Peru is fun my friends!! I got put on a really fun diet hahaha I haven't been able to have any colors in the food! no fruits, no veggies! No seasonings on my chicken or anything haha! Esta bien! I am a happy camper!! The doctor laughed when we told him what part of Lima we lived in hahaha. He asked us why we lived in such a ghetto place and then laughed again haha! I love San German SO MUCH haha so we told the doctor exactly that haha!
Friday the 6th:
We had a cita with Jorge and we gave him a practice baptismal interview and he passed it!!! YAY!! He has a fecha for the 20th of march!!!
Saturday the 7th:
BAPTISM DAY!!! But firstttttttt President called us in the morning to let us know about changes....my cute, cute compy is going to be an hermana cap!!!! I literally am so proud of her!! I am going to miss her like crazy but wow I am so jealous of those hermanas she'll be over!! I am staying here in San German!! My new cute compy is from Mexico, and her name is Hermana Lopez!! I get her on Tuesday!! I am going to be leading this sector which is CRAZY!!! THEN we headed and cleaned the capilla for the baptism. We had the baptism and wow. It was so special. We sang and spoke a little bit. I have never seen so many people come together so fast! Almost the WHOLE ward was there. SO CRAZY!!! It is such a special experience and opportunity to be apart of this work. WOW. I am so grateful for everyday I get to be here!! WOW!! ALSO Jorge came and was telling everyone to come to his in 2 weeks hahaha!! YES! Animos!!
Sunday the 8th:
Wow! What a good Sunday. We were able to get around to saying goodbye to people that Hna Luke is so close to! We had such a fun NDH this night with Familia Montero and some other members! Carlos was also confirmed!! YES!!!
Alright my friends!!! My spiritual thought is this:
"Charity isn't an act(actions), it's a condition."I love this because the CONDITION is how we convert. It is so cool that we have Jesus Christ to look up to and to RELY on. He is our PERFECT example. Trusting in something so consistent is the best!
My challenge!!
Read "The Challenge to Become" and then make a list of every time it talks or mentions charity. Study charity this week and find one way to incorporate charity in your everyday life!!!
I love you all so much!! Thank you for your prayers and your love!!!!
Love,
Hna King :)
