Hey! Glad to hear you’ve had a great week!
We had a bit of a slower week this week. Lots of rain so the
days went by longer when we didn’t’ get invited into homes. But, we had the
wonderful blessing to be able to help a woman named Ana with her groceries! The way it works here, is when the market
comes into town, you buy on that day. Well, the market came to town on the
worst rainy day of the week. We were walking down the big flight of stairs and
we saw this woman waiting on someone’s porch. We asked her if she needed help
and she said, "no, I’ll just wait until the rain stops." We quickly pointed out that the rain wasn’t
going to stop anytime soon! So, we
picked up her bags, which were like 50 lbs each, and carried her groceries up
the stairs. When Ana walked, she had a limp. We asked her what happened. She had 4 strokes in her 50 years of life. She was actually waiting on her brother in
law to come help her with the groceries, She had been waiting for almost an
hour in the pouring rain. It feels wonderful to be able to help someone in such
a simple way but have a really big impact.
Our investigators were all no más this week. Pamela and
Gonzalo took the family to Chillan for winter break. and Sergio and Andrea had
to work a fundraiser for the foundation where they receive help with son, León.
Yes, his name means LION! It’s awesome, but anyways, they didn’t have the
energy to get up in the morning, so her baptism will be pushed back a week for
the 25th of July! Please keep her in your prayers so that she can be baptized
on the 25th!
Other than that we found a couple new people. We will see if they want to learn more or if
they were being polite to get us out of the rain
Al righty. That’s about it. Hope you have a fantastic week
and keep on keeping on.
Much love,
Elder Watts
