Hola,
This week was so good! Our investigator, Margarito, is
getting baptized on Saturday, and he is sooooo prepared and awesome. We went
through the baptismal interview questions with him and he answered them all
perfectly. I also found out that this lady I taught in Yuma, Jennifer Rogers,
is getting baptized on Saturday too. Our investigators Angelo and Valeria who
came to church for the first time last week accepted a baptismal date for
August 13 and want an eternal family with their 3 young sons. In one of our
lessons, we showed them a picture of a family from the Yuma branch dressed in
white with their
4 little boys in front of the San Diego temple and they
said "Wow!
That looks like a fresh start. I want that for my
family." They're super cool!
On Friday night, I got to go to the Mesa temple visitors
center with our ward mission leader and his teenage niece and nephew who
recently moved in with him, who we are teaching. After watching the Restoration
movie there, Ana (16) said (in Spanish) "I had a lot of doubts and
questions, but the video answered all of them." Their mom came over from
Mexico just barely on Saturday and she came to church on Sunday and felt like
everything said was exactly meant for her.
And we were able to find our investigator, Porfilio,
twice this week who we can never find. He had read in the Book of Mormon and
gave us a play by play of what happened in the chapter and compared it to his
own life. It was way cool.
This week I did exchanges with Hermana Sedgwick and it
was so fun to be with my trainer again. Also, on Wednesday, I got to go to MLC
(missionary leadership council) with the zone leaders, the assistants, and
President Christensen and received trainings on the spirit in the finding,
teaching repentance, and baptizing converts. Then on Thursday, the zone leaders
and I relayed all the trainings to our zone in 2 hour long zone meeting.
Fourth of July was fun. It was our pday, so we taught
from 4-7:00 and then drove up South Mountain and watched the fireworks in the
whole valley. Today for pday, we played laser tag with our zone and it was way
fun. Sorry I'm writing so late today. We did laser tag early and then went
shopping and now I'm finally to wifi. Thanks for the package. It was great.
Love,
Hermana Gubler
