As
I mentioned, last week had been a little rough with our good buddy
Berlin. We were finally able to stop by and teach him yesterday. We had a
really close heart to heart as brothers. As always his heart is in the
right place, and this just isn't the right time in his life to be
baptized. As Elder Corder put it, he is absolutely ready spiritually,
but temporally not so much. He is such a good person and I love him as a
brother. Someday I know that he will be ready to get baptized.
Although things were a little tough, life rolls on! We had three stud investigatores in church on Sunday,
Felix, Jose Luis and Darwin. Para mi, it was a huge blessing that our
new investigator Darwin Reyes was able to go to church. He showed up
with his BoM, a Bible and una mascota to write down notes. EVERY time
some one mentioned a scriptural reference in a talk, or a class he
marked it so that he could go back later and study it. We went back last
night to teach him and he is doing very well!! He read the Book of
Mormon and had a ton of questions about repentance and baptism. We set a
date for him to be baptized the 19th of March.
Anyways
this week as I had mentioned, has been a good one. We have started to
go out running every Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday. I honestly
forgot how much I love running. We only run about a 2 miles
but it's enough to get the blood going. Elder Corder and I have been
reminiscing about our time together and working hard until our last
minutes together. He's such a stud and I'm gonna miss his BONES. Pero ya
tengo que seguir hacia adelante. Tengo ganas a terminar nuestro tiempo
juntos.
Sorry for the short email, espero que sea de provecho.
