Dear Mom, and everyone else,
Everything is going good here. We had another baptism this Saturday. He is a 31-year-old guy from Uruguay named Ruben. He got divorced not long ago (in November) and that made him really want to change his life. He is really humble and was ready for his baptism.
Other than that we had Zone Conference this week on Tuesday, which was edifying. The theme scripture was 2 Nephi 2:26 and we talked about agency and how the investigators need to act and exercise their agency through doing things and keeping commitments like reading the Book of Mormon, coming to church, and praying.
On Monday and Tuesday we slept over at the Zone Leader's house because the pump in our landlord's well blew out and we didn't have a drop of running water, so we needed somewhere to shower, brush our teeth and use the bathroom. We even had to get buckets from a neighbor and take them over to the house so that the family could flush their toilets! But we got water back on Wednesday night, and were able to do our laundry and everything. On Saturday we went to the stake center to play basketball as a district, but they were doing a stake basketball game and didn't have enough people so they let us play with them and it was pretty fun.
We had a great FHE in Monday night with a family that we are teaching in the home of the bishop, who gave a great lesson on priesthood authority.
I wish everyone the best this week and hope that each of you can work on making your relationship with Christ even closer.
Love,
Ruben
Ariana and her family at her baptism
