Never postpone a prompting!
Hola Larsen Tribe!
Woohooo! Reunited at long last!!! Haha so glad to hear everything is going weell! Even though there are a few sleeping on the floor :) Love that story of faith, Dad! Wow, JJ and Ez! Mom got you guys good! Haha glad Jarrad survived being alone, and Moana the super cool ROPES course!
It's been a great week here in Bonanza! It started off a little slow with Hermana Gomez recovering from her surgery, but picked up when we could get working again. We had a cool miracle this week! We were walking in a part of the selva (jungle) that we always pass, enjoying the sweltering sun and sweat dripping down our face, when we passed by this house we always see. Now all of the houses here have bars on their doors and windows for security (major fire hazard if you ask me), but this day there was something tucked in between the bars and the window. A RESTORATION PAMPHLET - whaaaat?
If that's not a sign to go and knock a door, I don't know what is! But we were running late for our next appointment, so we decided to knock when we passed in return. We come back about an hour later to knock the door, but nothing. No one answers. We left and I was really sad that we hadn't knocked when we first felt the impression. Three days go by and we're in the selva again. While passing the same house we see that there's a woman sitting outside in front. We weren't going to miss the opportunity to talk to her again! So we start talking.
Her name is Ir_ and turns out she's the sister of one of the investigators we dropped a couple of weeks ago. She accepted a return appointment, and let us know that she doesn't normally accept visits from churches, but that she had seen us singing hymns to her sick mother and out working and visiting all day and she really admired what she had seen of us. She was very open with us, and I really think she's going to progress! I'm so grateful for a Heavenly Father that gives us second chances, and gave us another opportunity to talk to Hermana Ir_! But lesson learned, never postpone a prompting!
And better yet, Jo_, An_, and Li_ were all finally baptized! Wooohoo!! It was honestly a miracle for An_ and Jo_. Their grandpa passed away Friday morning, which was super sad for them. We thought they were going to put off the baptism, but in the end they decided to go ahead and do it. We were super busy trying to get everything ready because our ward mission leader went out of town, but all the stress was waaay worth it to see them all in white! It was a super special experience!
Love you guys! Read the Book of Mormon, keep the commandments, and be examples!
