I Hope all are well.
Well let's see, where to begin. I really really enjoyed this week. It was super awesome for me. Part of that being the interview I had with my mission president; President Galvez on Friday. Interviews are such an awesome oppurunity to talk to the President one on one. I had been looking forward to meeting with him for months. We just talked about everything for a good half hour. I felt amazing because he gave me great advice and helped me set awesome goals. That really set a nice tone for the week.
This fast Sunday as well turned out to be amazing. One of the best in my mission. All three of our progressing investigators came and really enjoyed church. Fasting has a new meaning for me now. My comp and I shared our testimonies and Gilbert (investigator) almost made it up but the meeting had gone over time already. However lot's of members gave encouragement to him and others. I don't remember if I told you this but Heredia is a giant ward (compared to the rest of CR) and it continues to grow. We had 175 in chruch which is the most in a long while. They're making plans to split it, and we went to a group meeting they had afterwards which will be a new branch. Everyone is really excited about it. Oh yeah, we also found a new family of 4 last week and they showed up to church by suprise. We couldn't get a hold of them sat. night so I wasn't expecting to see them but they made it! Overall we had 7 in church which I think is pretty good.
Our challenge for the week upcoming will be to put baptism goals with Gilbert, Carlos, and Carolina. We've decided it will be a week of big baptism goals!
On Friday we also met a new investigator named Paulina. She's a single mom with 2 kids. Times have been very hard for her of late, but I think we met her at the ideal point in her life in order to help her realize the power of the atonement. I'm sure the gospel will be able to improve her situation.
I´m really glad everyone got home safe from Powell even if there was one casualty.(Dad) haha Get well. Love you all.
Thank you to those who sent me letters!!! It made my day. Ciao
Pura Vida
