This week started off well with a zone conference! These are always fun because we get great
food (J),
see old friends, and learn quite a bit too.
This conference was centered mostly around reading the Book of Mormon
and then asking questions about the passage.
We call this a mini-bloque here in Veracraz, and we practiced this
mini-bloques quite a bit. And then we
ate a ton of pizza … it was a good day!

Wednesday was fun too because we had our weekly
activity. We had another Family Home
Evening, however we weren’t able to plan it super well, or announce it, because
we were in Tierra Blanca the whole day Tuesday for the zone conference. Luckily, we still had a fair amount show up
.. around 40 came. We shared a message,
ate food, then played charades for the adults and had a soccer game outside for
the kids. It went pretty well!!
Thursday and Friday were rough days because it was raining a
ton. We got thoroughly soaked despite
our rain jackets and umbrellas.
Thankfully, we didn’t get sick.

Saturday was awesome because Iris got baptized!! It was an awesome experience! I was blessed with the opportunity to baptize her and it went great!
This week were
also able to talk with Hermana Flor and Jose about baptism as well. They wanted to talk and pray about it a
little more. Jose just had his stitches
removed from when he broke his arm so they also wanted to make sure he’ll be
ready physically too. We’re going to
see what they think tomorrow! We also
had a great lesson with Hermana Ausencia.
The Spirit was super strong and she looks like she might be ready this
week as well!! We’ll see what
happens!! But yeah, that’s all I’ve got
for you all this week!! Have a great
week!!
