Hey Gang!
Carnaval was good, thanks for asking! We made fruit smoothies, ate
achachairu, (the most beautiful fruit on the face of the planet) and read A LOT
of scriptures. It was a good break, but we were really happy to be working again
on Wednesday!
Maribel and Estefani's baptism was great and they were both very happy! Maribel felt the Spirit stronger than she ever had which was a huge blessing! She said that she felt something marvillous and indescribable and I was so happy she could feel AND recognize the Spirit that night!
One family we are working with is Familia Ibarra Martinez! Their three
young children were baptized about a year ago and go every week, but the parents
weren't baptized because the Dad has to be divorced from a previous wife before
they can get married! But they fasted with us as a family last Sunday and we are
working with the Branch to help raise money for the divorce and subsequent
marriage! They have very little, but are so dedicated and excited to make their
family eternal!
Other than that, we are working with a few great young people, one who is named
Julian. We found him this Thursday and he is just awesome! You feel so happy and
positive when you are around him and he learns the gospel with a thirst and
excitement that I have never seen before! He went to church on Sunday and had
accepted to be baptized on March 3rd, but sadly, yesterday he left for Peru to run
track! We will miss him and it was a very short lived friendship, but we at least
planted a seed with him!
Oh and transfers! Elder Perriton is leaving and going to Villamontes.
Picking up investigators for church just got 10 X better! |
A picture of "the Crew" before our transfer. I will miss Elder Perriton! |
I am pumped for a great transfer, Yacuiba
is the best and it looks like March will be a great month for us!
Love,
Elder Harris
