Dear Family,
This week has been a great week of miracles.
The first miracle is that our President let us go to the
other temple here in Guatemala. This
has NEVER been done before. We were the
very first ones. So that was just awesome. We also took some converts with us which was
even cooler. But it was super weird
because only the first councilor which has is only 21 years old
came with us with a bunch of women because it was a Relief Society
activity. We had to guide and plan a lot
of this activity in Santiago. We are a
part of the Presidency which just puts a lot more stress on us. You learn a lot and you get close with the members. I can't
send the pictures this week becuase I am using a bad computer that is super
old!! But next week I'll do it.
This week we are
going to be having a baptism again!!! The sister of the girl that we baptized
will be baptized this Saturday and confirmed with her sister the next day which
is Sunday. At first she didn't want to
do it becuase she felt alone. Her mom won't
be able to get baptized until the 28. While
we were listening to her concerns an impression came to me to just be bold and say
that she can be baptized this Saturday and confirmed this Sunday and I did and
she accepted!! I can't say how many times the Sprit has
helped in my lesson every time really, and its always the best. So were looking forward to that this week.
Some weird stuff that is happening is that I am doing splits with one of the guys
that entered with me and is now my zone leader.
That's pretty weird haha .
And who knows what we are going to do if
I have to teach in Tzutujil. They haven't
done splits here for over a year so it's really weird that we are doing them
this time. But it will be fun. Also a funny thing that happened
my companion and I were asked to bless a car haha. That was a first for the both of us. We didn't even know how to do it haha. So we just offered a pray and stuff like that
haha. The things people will ask you to
do here.
It's crazy how fast changes are starting to go. I don't know if my companion has changes, will have to see. It's possible but I don't think it will
happen. Its Santiago you have to change
your mind to accept that you will be here for the minimum of 5 changes. It's a
crazy assignment but I am happy that I am here and I have changed and grown a lot
from it. Thank you mom and dad for your
letters and stories to help me and guide me.
I love you and I hope everything is going good back home.
Until next week
Love
Elder Toma
