Well this week was really awesome actually. We worked pretty darn hard, and we found an awesome miracle. her name is Griselda. She got here about 6 months ago from Texas. Her mother and all of her kids are members there in texas. But sadly as happens to some mexicans. She got deported to here, so she can`t see them much for a bit. But she has known the church for a long time and has worked with lots of missionaries, but said that she never really took them seriously. She almost got baptized, but wasn`t married to her husband so couldn`t. But now she`s here, alone. And really wants to change. ITS AWESOME!! We had an awesome first lesson with us and she told us she`s gonna do everything. We passed by to get her sunday and she was all ready and super duper excited to go to church again, because she went a lot in the US, and on the way there announced that she`s going to get baptized, but she wants us to prepare her good!!
Blessings come from God I know. She needed us in the moment we found her. Actually, we were looking for some inactive members that live in a part of our area that we never go, and we asked her cousin if she knew where they lived and she said behind her house, so as we were leaving, griselda caught up to us and started talking to us in perfect english. haha, slight accent, but still. much much better than most people. p.s. the inactive member came to church too!! he seems pretty exctied to reactivate after like 6 years of inactivity. haha
But yes. Church was awesome for that. But sadly our awesome family that came to church last week didn`t come this week. We don`t know why. We had an awesome lesson with them on friday and taught the dad for the first time. they all seemed really excited to come to church again, and the daughters went to mutual on saturday. After church we passed by and the youngest daughter said that her mom was sleeping and that something had happened. But yeah. We`re not sure, we`re going back tomorrow for an appointment so we`ll see what happens.
There`s lots more thats going on here in the Garden of Acapulco, but it would take too long to write it all. We went to the beach again today. I love it. its just kinda stinky. but thats how they are sometimes. haha
We `re coming on the last week of the change. The other two elders in my ward are going home. Elders Woolsey (my zone leader in Chilpancingo) and Elder Martinez (he was in my first district in Atoyac) 2 elders that i`ve known for quite some time. I`m gonna miss them lots. But that always has to happen. And theres a good change that my companion Elder Payne is going too. But we`ll see what happens on Saturday.
I also made some phone calls to some converts last night and talked to some of my favortite converts from Cuautla. Narciso and his family. I love them. it pumped me up a lot and really got me excited to baptize more ready people like they are.
WEll i love life, the mission, the Lord, and ALL OF YOU!!!
Love
Elder Summers
