Welcome
to the life of Hermana Imbler.. today I got on a computer that didn´t
work... again... and had to wait about 50 minutes just to start
writing.. and now we will be finishing in 10 minutes.. Oh well computer
time isn´t everything.. Today are transfers and I am trying my hardest
to wait patiently to know if I will be staying here or if I´ll be
heading to a new area because Hna Inca and I have now been together for
two transfers and a half but... whatever the Lord has prepared for me
I´m ready!! So just a quick recap...
Jhony and Karina got baptized yesterday!!!! In the
morning before church we had a small baptismal service and everything
went smoothly. Then they were confirmed in sacrament meeting and
welcomed into the ward! We were literally so excited, Hna Inca and I
hugged for a long time, our first family!! (I´ve attached two pictures..
one of the baptism and one of the wedding.. more to come.. when I have
more than only 15 minutes). Teaching and preparing them this last week
was a little harder, but really everything paid off! I know they are
going to be such a great family in the church.. now we only have to keep
strengthening them!
This week we weren´t able to get in contact with
Juan.. He was sick last week and headed to Lima for a couple days.. but
it looks like he has yet to return.. we are pretty sad because we love
him a lot and he was progressing really well.. we´ll keep praying to
find him. We found a new investigator Oswaldo who is also an older man
(we are teaching three the same age of around 65 years old..) He didn´t
want to go to church on Sunday because he is afraid if he leaves someone might rob him because his house isn´t secure.. we´ll be working with him on that one.
On Thursday
I had a work visit from one of the sister training leaders and we had a
really great time.. I learned a lot from her (even though she has less
time in the mission) I realized that we can learn so much from being
with other missionaries. We were able to have a really cool lesson in
the street about faith. Something that she told the investigators really
hit me.. So I thought I would share... A seed when it starts to grow
starts growing up or down first? Down.. first it needs roots.. and then
with time we will see the fruits it brings.. The same is with our
faith.. we need to cultivate it.. at first we might not see the results,
but with time we will see the grand fruits that come from our faith.
That´s all folks! Hope you are all doing well and know that I pray for you every day!! Thanks for all the support you give me!!
