Hey April 9, 2018

Woohoo! This week we fasted and let me explain all the legit blessings He gave us. 

First, Ana was baptized. It was a great time, she was happy, we didn't mess up on our special musical number and even her mom gave a small testimony. We are going to baptize her next. She's just a little stubborn is all. 

Second, Jhadys was confirmed! She is officially a member of the best and most true church there is. 

We finally found Elias and Fani, and to my surprise? Fani, who said no no no the whole time, suddenly said yes. and not just a yes in general. A yes to next week. So we will also be baptizing them this Saturday. Which means another special musical number haha! I am so pumped for them! 
Side note: We had companion exchanges on Wednesday, and I went to Santo Tomas Ajusco. Elder Eastmond went to visit Elias and Fani but couldn't go in because their parents weren't around. I guess Elias asked if I was gone for good, and Elder Trasviña said yes! Elias took it a little too seriously and started crying, threw his Book of Mormon on the ground and screamed "IF WILSON WON'T BAPTIZE ME, THEN NO ONE CAN!" Maybe he didn't scream it, that was just to make the story better. but he was definitely heart broken. and was happy again when he saw me the next day haha. I am super surprised at Fani because she just started crying in the middle of the lesson and explained how she was scared of water. So we took her to the baptismal font and she went inside and everything went just great. She is excited to get baptized this Saturday :)

We visited Mireya again, she's just super. I told my old companion we were gonna baptize her and he said "No manche ella es la que menos pense que se iba a bautizar!" My testimony from last weeks message has once again been affirmed. Jesus Christ can trulychange anyone. Just let him in! I love the Hymn "Abide with me, 'tis eventide". He truly will abide with us if we let him in. Oh, Savior, stay this night with me. 

We received transfers this week, I am staying! I begged President to let me stay. I'm so glad he did. 

There is an awesome family out here too. We swing by and clean their kitchen every morning. We also found an 18 year old girl who hasn't been baptized and her mom is super faithful and everything and she said she doesn't really have a reason to why she isn't baptized. Pray that we can help Monica!  

Spiritual thought: Mosiah 2:41. We really are happy if we keep the commandments. We really are blessed if we keep the commandments. And I testify that one day if we keep the commandments we will be accepted into His prescence again. 

Other than that we are just happy to be working and having a good time! Thanks for all the prayers and support! Have a good week!
