translator x2, missionary (of course), and one of those kids that is
way to big to be using that playground.
So it's been another good week. As usual, ups and downs, but good
overall. We had another wedding and they asked me to be the
photographer so that was fun. As usual we had a ton of food and it was
delicious. I love Hispanics so much haha.
Super cool experience, Sunday I was sitting in sacrament meeting (the
first hour of church), and this African man walks in who very
obviously does not speak Spanish and sits down by me. I ask him what
brought him there and he said he was looking for the French branch
(the group that meets right after us). So he asked me to translate for
him, and I did! Simultaneous translation on a fast and testimony
meeting is definitely not one of the easiest tasks, but I definitely
saw the truthfulness of the gift of tongues. Every time I realized I
hadn't quite caught what the speaker had said, a sentence just came
into my mind. It was such an amazing experience, I knew exactly what
to say every time. The spirit really does fill our mouths with the
words we need in the moment we need them.
Most exciting news!! Balmore chose to follow the example of Jesus
Christ and be baptized this Sunday!! It's so great the see the baptism
of someone I have actually spent some time teaching and helping. I
know we didn't do anything, the Spirit was the teacher from day one.
Awesome miracles, he only had to baptized once! (YES) and he bore the
greatest testimony afterwards. I feel so blessed to have been a first
hand witness to his conversion to this gospel and more importantly to
Jesus Christ. Man this guy has the strongest testimony and he barely
has been learning about this. I'm so excited for him in the future.
But that's about all the big news for this week! I hope you all do
amazing things wherever you are and siguen adelante!
