Then unfortunately one of our investigators, Laersio, dropped
us, always a bummer, but I am grateful for the area book and someday he
will be ready to receive the gospel. He actually loves our visits and
loves to talk to us, but isnt interested in changing and making
commitments.
Then we almost had Natalia´s baptismal interview on
tuesday, but her sister in law had a crisis with lots of not so good
substances and was freaking out at her house so they had to go help her,
then on wednesday she couldnt, then on thursday we were there ready but
we found out she had stepped on glass and cut her foot pretty bad and
went to the hospital, and so finally Friday, yesterday, we were
seriously praying SO hard that nothing would happen and we would be able
to have the interview with her. Thank goodness it worked out and we
were finally able to have it, she passed, and she is super excited to be
baptized!!! It went well and we are so grateful, so she is getting
baptized tonight at 7 pm! Woo!!! Haha it just felt like there were a lot
of trials and difficulties this week, but something that I was able to
practice was not get bummed out or discouraged, always have to look to
the brightside and with everything we have to have the faith to see the
blessings and tender mercies that happen in our lives. So it was a good
week, just with lots of little bumps and trials.
But we are also super psyched because now we
can officially tell everyone... on May 21st we are having a special
devotional next to the temple, and the person who will be speaking with
us missionaries is... ELDER RUSSELL M
NELSON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So. Today baptism. Tomorrow talk with you all.
Tuesday we get to go to the temple. The next week devotional with an
apostle. The next week transfers. then the World Cup starts. Then
President Farnes gets here. Basically this next month and a half is
going to FLY by becaues of all the crazy aewsome things that are going
to happen. So yeah! Woo, super excited.
We also were able to find webcams to do the skype,
super psyched about that! So yes, I will actually be online just a
little before 6 pm my time, or 3 pm in Colorado. Also we were able to
test skype and gmail today, and it looks like the quality on skype is
actually better, but we can go ahead with whatever you all think is
best! I will check this before to see which one you all prefer. My gmail
account will be the one I always use, So search for me on both (although
should already have me on gmail) and be ready a little before 6! Ok??
Ok. Woo, super excited! Also, sorry mom, but I dont know which number
you would be able to call, if it comes to that (which it wont) then I
will be able to ask Elder Irineu. But anyways, it has been a great week,
hard at times, but still great! I am loving it here as always and so
grateful to have this opportunity to serve my Savior. Love you all and
talk to you tomorrow!!!!!!!!!
Elder Carney
