This week on Elder Silva's mission it was the bomb! I have a new companion Elder Jenkins and he is from Moroni Utah. I actually new Elder Jenkins when I had 6 months in the mission and now we are companions :D We are working really hard to get our zone Tenosique up and running!
This week we baptized a sister named Paola and her story is very inspiring. She actually contacted us and she said that she wanted to hear our message and I was kinda weirded out but we said it was okay. When we started teaching her she was really interested and was keeping all the commitments that we left her such as the commandments, reading the Book Of Mormon and praying. I started to wonder why she was so receptive until one day she told us the reason she was was first looking for us.
She said that she has been looking for us for about 2 weeks but could never get a hold of us. She said that she had a dream of a man dressed in white and that man told her to find us and to go to the church. While she was explaining her experience I felt the Spirit and I could tell the desire and the faith that this young girl had I was surprised. She told us that her parents and close friends said that she was crazy but she knew what she felt and what she experienced. I told her that her experience was something sacred and that she should always remember it and that it was a blessing that she had that experience. This last Sunday Paola was baptized and she was very happy and that she is very grateful that she could find the gospel in her life.
We are also teaching a brother named Freddy and he also very special and he is going to get baptized next week :) I Love this Gospel!
