Missionary Moment - Puerto Rico San Jose & Dominican Republic Santo Domingo West









What a week! By the way I hope everyone's doing good and everyone's happy

 

Basically it comes down to the fact that we didn't have anything else to do this week but work, but our member support went down because of an activity there, or some family members sick there, or there's school work to be done there... but don't worry as we ALMOST hit all our goals for the week.. how?? Because we prayed. And He didn't let us down.

 

We spoke to tons of people this week, lots of members and friends and many inactives. The majority had told us that church was on the table but come Saturday night to call and remind everyone it was looking way to hairy for me... and everyone knows I hate hairy situations and that's where the prayer flood came in. 

 

I testify that as you leave your desires in the hands of a perfect loving Father, it's hard to be let down... how can He? Although we didn't get everyone we were hoping for, many who came were those whose faith physically radiated off of them. 

 

Mella (Meya) got baptized like a beast. Not many people came to the baptism unexpectedly but she was very much tested over this weekend to not get baptized but she tackled through! It got a little scary as she hadn't shown up for the first hour of church to get confirmed but turns out she was forced to walk yet again several several miles to get there, making her a confirmed member of the church of Jesus Christ that second hour. 

 

All of that and I'm sick haha...yeah I couldn't get out of bed till about 10:30 but a couple shots of ibuprofen and mucus control and coach takes me right off the benches batting home-runs all day long

 

Shout out to Michel! She also got baptized on Saturday! (Member of a family in my last area) 

 

Too much love
