More pics, I guess, and stuff. . .
This p-day was rather relaxing. there weren't any activities, so there was nowhere to rush to this morning. :) We enjoyed studying for an extra hour, had a great discussion on the Atonement, and afterwards I had more time to get little things done. A lot of stuff gets left behind when you have a tight schedule. We got some food at the store, some long awaited applesauce, and had fun talking on the way home. We talk about fun stuff all the time, Hna Carlsen is a real cutie, makes me laugh a lot!. hehe.
Last night we had an awesome talk (and a great lesson on Missionary work!) with our new member Ernesto. He was looking back at those first days that we had found him on the street... everything that happened after that: teaching him, helping him, through good and bad... and where he is now. He thanked us for everything we had done to bring him to the gospel. Really it was the Spirit that has changed him... just reminded him of his own devine potential. Now his eyes are opened, his concience enlightened, and his Spirit filled. He's a different person, though still has a lot to learn. He was signed to play for the Yankees. But even though his biggest passion is baseball... he's thinking about going to school... ?!? We never even suggested that for him, but new that it was a decision made with the Spirit. All by himself! Wow.
He said if he wasn't married he would go on a mission... :D But not here in the DR he says. He said it would be easy to convert his mom, and we will also concentrate on his wife. Though she lives in Boston, he will be an example to her.
Well, we've got another baptism this Saturday. Yay! Katerine, a little jovensita, she has been so eager to ba apart of the church, meetings and activities, to meet new friends and be apart of the Spirit of teh Gospel. We feel she is ready, she feel she´s ready, so let the games begin.
