Buna buna dragi frati și surori:) happy august! Where does the time go?
just a quick rundown:
-while closing the church building after sacrament last week we accidently locked someone in the building! We thought everyone had left as we locked and set the alarm on the building. As we were walking away, the alarm started blaring and one of our members was trying to leave from one of the side doors. We felt very bad at first, but luckily we all got a good laugh out of it.
-our 9-year old friend Alex got baptized!! It was the sweetest. He was baptized by his dad who is a convert of a couple years now, and it was the sweetest thing to see their family so happy at the baptism. We also had a good number of our members show up, which was amazing. It is such a big sacrifice for them, considering it is pretty hard for them to travel to church just for sunday, let alone for the baptism on Saturday.
-sora anderson was bit by a dog on one of our morning runs. Before you get too worried, she is fine, and it was nothing serious, but we were slightly freaked out by it.
- 2 past missionaries from the US (moms from Utah) who served here in 1994 were at church this week and it was so fun and interesting to talk to them! They gave us some contacts of people they worked with and baptized all the way back then 27 years ago, and we are excited to be busy this week contacting them.
- I will never be taking the air-conditioning in buildings back home for granted ever again.
- our friend Florea is still progressing and came to church again yesterday!
The power of prayer is real. We were teaching our friend the basics of praying and it was amazing to see how he came to the knowledge that he was able to talk to his Heavenly Father through prayer. Sometimes I take prayer for granted, but the knowledge that we have that we can have a conversation with our Father in Heaven through prayer is amazing. Take the time to say more meaningful prayers this week!
O săptămână foarte bună! :)
