First of all. 18 months isn´t long enough. Second of all...how is it almost December? That means I have been out almost 4 months....and that is a crazy scary thought. Also, its not cold here. Its a very odd thing.
So yesterday was incredible. We hit 51 in assistencia in Sacrament Meeting yesterday! We just keep growing! Also...my companion and I are looking forward to this Saturday...along with several others...because there will be two baptisms. Two very precious souls are going to have one of the best experiences of their lives. We have had such an incredible experience teaching both of them...I know that they are ready. I have learned so much about the love that Heavenly Father and the Savior has for their family...I can feel it too. When we had an activity on Saturday, listening to one of them talk about how ¨This church answers all the questions that no other church could.¨ And that's true! It was such a beautiful thing to hear, because every day, that is something I am learning more and more about for myself. So, I will have the best birthday ever, because after the baptism, there is going to be a big, ¨Welcome Home!¨ for the first returned missionary of Las Tablas, Hna. Lanza! There will be music, comida, and lots of happy things. I am so excited about the work here...We are doing so much with the members, and its making an incredible difference.
Also, Hna. Rodas, Hna. Holland, Hna. Maldonado and I are got to meet the sister of Maria, a friend of my aunt and uncle. We have missionary district meetings every Tuesday morning in Chitre, at the church. We called Maria´s sister Sunday, to say we had a book and some pictures for her, and she was excited to meet us. We asked her where we could meet with her, and it turns out, she lives really close to the church! She came, and we showed her the church, asked a little bit about her family, and later went to her house and taught a lesson. The Spirit was so strong in the lesson...I am not sure how things are going with her right now, because she is in Hna. Holland and Hna. Maldonado´s area...but I will hear more tomorrow! The work is great, and I love that I have the opportunity to do all that I can to invite others to come unto Christ.
Well, I am running out of time...but I hope every one is doing well. Eat lots of food for me!
I say it every week, but I truly love this work. I love my Savior and my Heavenly Father, and I am grateful for the opportunity to bare my testimony of this each and every day.
Hna. Scott
