Welcome to Valenzuela!!...
This
are going great here! My companion is Sister Mole, she is 23 and from
Devo Philippines! She goes home in October, and is only like 4'11" I
think she said! It is way wird being the taller one! The work is slow
and we only have 2 investigators that I am aware of... There are more on
the list but we haven't been able to teach them! BUT We met a really
cool investigator the other day! They are way prepared.
The man has prostate cancer, and his live in partners family are
members. And the man is way humble (of course he isn't expected to live
much longer) and they have come to church 2 times on their own!... But
the problem... they aren't married (and they probably don't have to
money to get married) and they don't know how to read or
write, which means they cant read any assignments! So we are trying to
get someone to go over there and read with them!... But If they can get
married than they will be ready for baptism with in 2-3 weeks!! So cross
your fingers and say your prayers!... We taught them how to pray the
other day... and Brother was so funny, but it really displays his desire
to live... He opened the prayer, asked Heavenly Father to heal him and
than closed it!... Poor guy, I feel so bad for him! But Im exercising my
faith that all will work out!...
There is another recent
convert in the area (the fellowshipper for the investigators) who has a
pretty interesting story... her daughter I think it is is only 18... she
is married... to a 14 year old!! Can you believe it!! I was shocked!!
At 14 I was going to dances, and expirementing with make-up! Nt trying
to be a married person!! I was shocked! But... I guess... more power to
them!...
I was able to see Brother Esquerra from Marulas ward at church on
Sunday! That was way cool! He took a picture so that he could show the
ward!! :)
