We are expecting 2 more baptisms this week!! L., and V.! L. is awesome! He's 30, and his future wife, K. (who he was living with) is a member of the church already! They are planing on getting married in a couple months! We had an amazing lesson with them! K., (L's gf) really wants to have an eternal family but is scared she wont be able to have kids because of her age, and when she told us this she started bawling! But my companion and I made her a promise if she lives the Law of Chastity, and they do everything to keep the Commadments, and if they wait to have kids until they are married, that the Lord will give them children. It was amazing promising them these blessings. Afterwards, I felt really impressed to share a scripture I love in Doctrine and Covenants, "I the Lord am bound when ye do what I say, but when ye do not what I say, ye have no promise". So they committed to live the Law of Chastity, and to first do all the things the Lord asks of them such as having faith, repenting, keeping the commandments, being baptized,etc. It was amazing seeing the hope and the faith Kelli had in the promise and for the action she is taking to come back to church, and for her fiance to be baptized this Saturday!
There have been many moments in my life when I have been happy, but I honestly have never been this happy in my life to be here in the mission, to be serving the Savior, and to be an Instrument in Gods hands to help his children be happy and return to him!
Love you all,
Elder Baca
