Good week! Herly was baptized by his friend Ronald this last Saturday! Very stressful at first cause we filled up the font a day before but got halfway cause the water ran out. I don't know how water just runs out but that's Peru for ya. So we went back the next morning and of course there still wasn't water haha. So Ronald had to lower him to the ground onto his butt and then have him go all the way under haha, ALSO there wasn't warm water:) But hey he was baptized and it all worked out in the end. After the baptism he bore his testimony and it was awesome, we felt the spirit so strong and we're super excited for our amigo Herly. Herly has knee problems so it's really hard for him to get around, he can't go down stairs or run, which is super hard for him because he used to play soccer a ton, and he was super good I guess. But he was able to go down the stairs to the font cause the stairs were small enough so that was perfect:)
The rest of the week went really well, we're making progress with Gabriela's family, slowly, but her mom is now convinced!...Dad's turn. Gabriela is awesome, she comes to church EVERY sunday and she's so ready to take that step in her life so we just have to keep praying and have faith.
So we were walking to Totorani one morning and Elder Letham found a huge spider (I don't like spiders, at all) and he was playing with it with his shoes and this dang spider climbed up his leg so fast it was insane, SO I was laughing so hard because Elder Letham screamed like a girl and while I was laughing he kicked his leg and the little devil flew onto MY leg and then I screamed like a little girl. Good learning experience, we're not playing with any spider again:) Today was transfers but Elder Letham and I are staying!! Hope you all had a good week! thanks for always reading my lame emails! LOVE YOU ALL!!!!! HAPPY JULY 28th!!!;)
Moroni 7.48
48 Wherefore, my beloved brethren, pray unto the Father with all the energy of heart, that ye may be filled with this love, which he hath bestowed upon all who are true followers of his Son, Jesus Christ; that ye may become the sons of God; that when he shall appear we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is; that we may have this hope; that we may be purified even as he is pure. Amen.
