Super Exited for Marlie and Parker! Can't wait to see the pictures!
Busy week as always!! We had two baptisms this Saturday! Baptism of Kauane and Samuel!
They are both awesome. Kauane is an ancient investigator of missionaries. It's always a challenge on getting the transportation right for our investigators. After everything fell through, we ended up calling an Uber to get our investigators from their houses to the Church.
Our ward did a ward fast. It was so cool to see a little ward work together. After Church, we had lunch together. It turned out great, and the investigators that we brought loved it.
This week is Saint week. So there are lots of crazy traditions here. Like one day you can't eat meat, another day you can't spend money, and some other cool things. Yesterday was the first day. Every corner had a pastor with his loudspeaker.
The Zone is doing great. One of the awesome parts of being a leader is watching others grow and develop. Watching and helping others gain a love for the Savior, and understanding their purpose as a missionary.
I was talking with Renato this week. He's a recent convert of ours. He is 62 years old. He was addicted to alcohol, cigars, and coffee. He was able to put these addictions away in 2 weeks. I asked him how. He just pointed to The Book of Mormon in his hands with tears in his eyes. We made a promise to him when we meet him, that if he reads the Book of Mormon with faith every day, he will find the strength to stop. He took that promise to heart.
I hope that we all are reading the Book of Mormon daily. Gain a testimony. Ask God if it's true.
Later today, Elder Groom and I will get our toe-nails done. We are pumped.
Love you all so much! Have a great week!
Elder Hillam
