Anyways this week was great as usual, more working and more learning. I figured I should tell you guys a little bit about the people we're teaching right now. My favorite fam is a woman and her kids. She's 25 and has I think 4 kids. We've been teaching her and she's so receptive to everything, and loves the Church. Her son is planning on getting baptized with her later this month! She has another son that's 11, and he is in a wheelchair with some physical and mental handicaps, but he's so funny and such a great kid. We've been figuring out with the bishop whether or not he needs the ordinance of baptism, because of his disabilities, and right now it's looking like he will be baptized as well, because he wants to with his family. How sweet.
We're also teaching a guy who's around 30 years old. He's way receptive also, working on giving up alcohol and drugs. He came to church with us and really enjoyed it, so we're hoping he follows through with his baptismal date later this month as well! We also are teaching a 19 year old with a little girl and another child on the way. Her sister and mom are members already, and that family is honestly the greatest. They help out the missionaries so much and have been the most kind to me ever since I came to Catamarca. She has a baptismal date for later this month as well, and she's made a lot of progress recently in wanting to come to church and read scriptures.
Those are our main progressing people we're teaching so if you could pray for them that they'll continue to accept the truths of the Gospel and be baptized that would be awesome! Because God answers prayers. He really does. If you're in need of something, God and Jesus Christ are standing ready to help us, we just need to demonstrate faith first. Read Ether 12:12, it's one of my favorites. That whole chapter is amazing.
Love you all, not much else to report this week, stay sweet
