Week 65: Baptism Baptism BAPTISM

THIS WEEK WAS THE COOLEST WEEK EVER

first of all, FRANCISCA got BAPTIZED! It was seriously such a great day. She is so awesome, she is really sassy and told us that she didn't want us to invite anyone to her baptism and she didn't want us to do a special musical number. We did both. :)

it was a crazy day, everyone told me that Satan works really hard on baptism days... and now I am able to add my personal testimony. We had to wake up and travel to Arauco in the morning, and my blowdryer broke. So I had to travel with wet hair. Then I couldn't find my cardagain or my tights, and just everything was a mess. Then, while we were filling up the baptismal font, we discovered that the hot water wasn't working... SO. We had to boil lots and lots of water and fill up the font and it took about six hours but we did it! It was great. 

The best part was when she was in the bathroom, after her baptism, and we asked her how she felt, and she paused for a minute, and then said, "like a whole new person."

It really is true, what it says in D&C, about how great our joy will be if we can bring one soul unto Christ. I have loved being able to watch Francisca progress and grow this testimony of hers, she really is converted and has changed soooo much. 

Also this week was great because our other investigator, Raul, proposed to Rachel! We helped him set up this huge romantic dinner and we even picked out their wedding rings. They are going to get married on the 13th of June, and he HOPEFULLY will get baptized on the 17th of June. Fingers crossed! 

On Saturday after our Baptism, we recieved our cambios! I am going to be staying here in Curanilahue, and Hermana Guibarra is heading to Los Angeles! My companion is Hermana Curtis, she is from Utah, and she also has about 16 months in the mission! We were in The CCM together, so we are already really good friends. I am excited and i know this next transfer has lots of changes and exciting things that are going to be happening, miracles and stuff!

thats about it! :) my camera is struggling again but I'll try to send pictures later. 

I LOVE BEING A SISTER MISSIONARY.

THE MISSION IS SO GREAT AND SO FUN.

I LOVE YOU ALL.

BYE!
