This week was crazy...we had such an awesome week. The weather is getting
so cold again!!!! We haven't had electricity for 2 days now so we opened up our
wanna be balcony thing and opened to windows....so we just froze everything
haha. The guy came to day to fix FINALLY and said that the problem was a super
easy fix...of course it was. We lived to days by flashlight....it was terrible,
but an adventure. I'll keep this one short b/c i'll "see" you all soon. But I
had such an awesome week. I was privileged to have the opportunity to baptize a
brother from Cameroon. I didn't teach him the lessons but he always came to our
branch b/c we translated for all of the brothas. I did the baptismal interview
with him and we got pretty close. there were 2 baptisms at the same time and I
knew both of the guys getting baptized really well, so i was really fun to
watch them go through the process of faith unto repentance and baptism, and to
watch their lives turn around. Then the next day at church, I was pulled into a
room by the other brotha who was baptized on Saturday and he just spilled out
all of his fears and nerves and it was a huge privilege to be able to use the
scriptures to comfort him...them only minutes later, I confirmed him a member
of the church being that our branch president doesn't speak any English. I was
so blessed to be worthy to give counsel when needed and to be able to perform
the ordinances. honestly, it was one of the happiest days on my mission. Ok
cool, so I'll see you soon and we'll all catch up a bit ok :)? Love you
guys!
Merry Christmas
