This week has been a crazy one: I cut my head open, I went to Walmart, we had a baptism, 3 other baptisms fell through, and an hermana in our district went home because she hurt her arm in the beginning of the transfer and, because it is still healing and needed to go to the clinic so much, she went home, (but she only had 2 weeks left in the mission).
This week we baptized Rocio! She was married on Friday and was baptized on Sunday. But Javier, her husband, is still having a difficult time accepting the word of wisdom, but we will be helping him. It was funny because when Rocio was baptized and went under the water, her two year old daughter started crying. When Rocio was confirmed and received the holy Ghost afterwards, her daughter started clapping! haha
We found a part member family this week. We are working with their three children. The hardest part is getting them to come to church. Pray that they will come.
Other than that, everything is great! It is starting to get hotter because summer is just around the corner, which is better than the rain and cold!
This week I studied President Nelson's April 2018 General Conference talk. He taught us the way that we can receive Personal Revelation.
1. Find a quiet place where we can always go, where we can feel the spirit.
2. Humble ourselves before God. Know that he can help us with everything and anything.
3.Pray with our heart and our mind. Pray with faith for His help.
4. Listen. We should wait after the pray and listen. Sometimes we can receive answer immediately if we just wait and are patient.
5. Write down our thoughts and feelings to show the Lord that we are grateful for those answers.
I know that everyone of us can receive answers and receive this help from our Father in Heaven. Revelation can bless our lives personally, our families, and the lives of others!
Have a great week!

About my wound: So we were walking and I was thinking and was kinda looking at the ground. The garbage cans are metal and some are connected to telephone poles. People come in the garbage trucks and remove the trash. Anyways, I wasn't looking and ran right into one! haha I cut myself, as you can tell, but didn't need to go to the clinic. It is healing well, just a mark now! haha
