This last week was awesome! We had the great blessing of baptizing five people! On Saturday, we baptized four and on Sunday, one. It was such a great experience and they were all excited to be baptized that they wanted to stay in the water. The next day they were saying that they wanted to be baptized again! haha
This next week we are preparing three people to be baptized. But it will take some work. Kayla is 11. Her mom, Alejandra, is a member but was baptized as a kid and never went again, so she doesn't remember much. Alejandra just needs to come to church. We are also helping her to quit smoking, which is her addiction.
We are also teaching Ana. She is the mom of two of the kids that we baptized this past week. We are helping her to receive all the lessons and to continue with her desire to be baptized. Javier and Rocio are great. They are still working towards marriage and are planning to be baptized on the 22nd of this month! Pray that all these people can progress and that we can help them through the help of the Lord.
We have transfers this week--actually tomorrow. I will be staying here in Lujan. My companion will be leaving and will be going to an area in Moreno. He is excited but doesn't want to leave. He was a great companion. I will receive a new companion, Elder Rivera from Peru. He has about 11 months on the mission. Pray that the Lord will help us in the months of September and October!
Love you all! Have a great week!
Elder Jones
