Hey fam! So this week not too much
happened for two causes. The first, I wasn’t allowed to walk distances this
week, and second we haven’t finished the week yet because it’s Saturday... we
are here in Mérida in the Family Search Center writing.
Anyways, some good highlights this
week was my feet feel pretty good! I took one of the medications that they gave
me and I felt awful! I thought I was going to pass out. I felt loopy and like I
was going to crash land on the floor. I went and slept for a good 3 hours. Then
we had a lesson we had to go to so I went all loopy and I’m pretty sure they
thought I was going to pass out, ha-ha! They were members so it was okay. Their
dad is listening to the lessons right now. I think I talked about him before;
Ricardo, the one who had a heart attack. We invited him to be baptized and he
rejected it because he doesn’t feel ready, but he likes going to church. He
says he will get baptized one day, and I totally believe it, because he’s
great! He just faults to pray for an answer. I know once he starts to pray and
really read in the Book of Mormon he will feel ready.
The other night we left with our
mission leader to go teach some lessons. We´ve been trying to find some part-member
families this week, but lots of them have changed houses and live in another
area. We had some really good luck the other night. We were almost done for the
night and almost went home, but I was looking through the lists and I found one
that lived close to where we were, so we went. We were looking for this little
boy that still needs to be baptized; he’s 9 or 10 years old. Anyways, we went
to the house and found his mother. She’s like 28 or so. But she let us in and
we were able to talk with her. The house where we were at was the house of her
mom and nobody was living there before her. She had just moved into that house
in the morning and we found her that night. She said that she was just thinking
how she wanted to start going back to church and baptize her little boy and
bless her baby. It was really cool to see how we were sent there by the Lord in
that exact time. I love moments like this. When you can just see how the Lord
is directing you so perfectly to where you need to be! It just makes me love
this work more and more every day!
It’s been a slow week, but we still
have success and saw blessings in our lives!
I love you all and hope you have a
great Saturday!
les quiero mucho,
Hermana Velasquez
