"testimony"

My least favorite people to visit in the entire world are people who leave the church because of others. If they are weak enough to do that their "testimony" needs a lot of work.  There is literally nothing, NOTHING more important than taking the sacrament every week.  Our first district counselor is a police officer, and when he has to work Sundays he comes to the church building in his uniform, on-duty, and waits outside to take the sacrament before he returns back to work.  It´s that important.

This week we had the opportunity to baptize his Nephew- Braian.  We started teaching him and the first time he went to church we realized that his uncle is 1st district counselor!  They are part of a huge family- and are the only two members out of more than 30.  It was one of the most spiritual baptisms I´ve ever had.  

After his confirmation, Braian´s uncle bore his testimony.  It was so powerful.  He has always been praying and hoping and working to help his family accept the gospel.

There is nothing that God wants more than eternal families, and we should be willing to do everything possible to reach this.  

I love you all so much, and hope that we can all return back to our Heavenly Father together, and help others do the same.

 Nehemías! He also looks a lot happier in the photos after his baptism.

 Braian y su tío. The best part is how much happier they look after the baptism!

 We couldn´t sleep because there was a giant fiesta the whole night (For teachers day all the teachers dressed up and had a parade with EXTREMELY loud music in the middle of the night).  The only part that we got to see was the trash the next day.

 We traded name tags and accessories,  And, My daughter has 3 months in the mission!  I´m old.
