BAPTISM!

Chinese food for the first time in 8 months!  (In a bigger, little colony in Mexico ☺). 

Hola Todos!

This week has been an interesting one! I'm still trying to adjust to the style of life here in the colonies, and it's still feeling slow compared to Ciudad Juarez, but I like it. It's a bit harder to find people to teach, but it makes you appreciate the miracles more. And speaking of miracles....

Cecilia's Baptism!!

This week la Hermana Cecilia got baptized!! She lives in a little town called Pacheco where there is no reception, and she only comes here to the colony once every two weeks. So two weeks ago we saw her and she told us she wanted to get baptized, but then we did not see or hear from her for two weeks, so we were unsure if it would happen. 

Friday night we called her, and the call actually went through! (which means that she was here in Colonia Juarez). She answered and we asked if she was here and if she still wanted to be baptized the next day, and she responded saying that she already told us she wanted to be baptized. We ran around trying to organize everything, and after a few mix ups, and some confusion on the date and time of the baptism, she was baptized. Cecilia was super excited and happy. 

It is always amazing to see changes like these in people's lives. I will forever be grateful for this opportunity that I have to watch these miraculous changes in the lives of people.

Have a great week!

Chinese food continued... (4$ for a giant plate that I could not finish, as hungry as I was)
