2 Years Missing...

Hey everyone!!!

My week was good. I've met many new people who are ready for the gospel. Like Paola and Erick. They're getting married and hopefully baptized on the 12th. Favorite dessert would be 3 leches. its cake haha. 

So, WE BAPTIZED! His name is Antony Gabriel Gonzalez Gonzalez. He was the most prepared person I have ever baptized I'm sure haha. He's 17 years old and is extremely wise in the ways of God. He went to church for the first time last week and after, we invited him to baptized this last Sunday and he accepted! There is also a backstory to all of this. Gabriel had a friend named Alan Martinez, a young man of 17 years. He had been inactive for more that 2 years. Elder Chavez and I first met him and talked to him about serving a mission and how it would bless his family. 

From that moment he decided that he was going to serve. He such a good kid and I'm glad that we were able to reactivate him into the church. He brought his friend to church and finally his family. Everyone was inactive and after two years, they felt that spark again. They felt the call to return. It brings me so much joy to see them go to church and know that I could help them with that. 

I love this family so much and can't wait for this kid to go on a mission. He will bring so many lives back to our Heavenly Father. This last Sunday was just a day of miracles. We also saw a family arrive that had never gone to our church before and it was all because we just invited them to church. We're hoping that they will get baptized on the 12th of this month! I love this gospel and I love my savior. Its because of Him that I am here. I love to share the gospel, because I KNOW it is true.
