Set a new record while having another dog encounter!
We set a new record here in this area for investigators in the sacrament meeting with 12. That was a huge blessing and we felt really good. I stayed in the same area with my same companion again. Elder Gonzales was transferred to Hortalandia for his last transfer here in the mission.
Ary and his wife came to the church building Saturday night to see it and we took them on a tour before they would come on Sunday. They were having an activity with the young single adults and all of the returned missionaries grabbed them dance and they loved it.
They then went to church the next day and absolutely loved it. They then asked us if there baptism was still on and we were like of course it is lol. They also gave us references of there 2 daughters that are married and live in our area. We visited one and she cried also, she felt the spirit very strongly and said that she will start going to church as well. Ary and Dezilda also said that they were going to take their parents to church, lol. Ary is 64 and almost died because of health problems and he said he only survived because God had a purpose for him that he didn't know what it was, but he told us yesterday that he believes that he has a purpose to be part of the church and to help others. He is super spiritual, hey have the most united family that I have ever seen outside of the church. He will literally be a bishop someday. Anyway all is well with them and we have a few other family's that are progressing well.
Received another bite by a dog so its pretty possible that I'll die of rabies here soon, love you guys. It was a good life. Not sure why that always happens to me, the only thing I can think of is that I'm so righteous that satan doesn't have any other options. But that is probably not the true story.
Arys family will be baptized on the 28th and we marked baptismal dates with their daughter and her husband for December. Really good. We did some divisions and had a really successful week of work again. We should start seeing those fruits next week.
We had a cool experience that we felt like we should go to a random neighborhood that is not very good. When we got there it started raining super hard and we were like why in the heck did we come here? We started knocking doors in the rain and I'm talking a lot of rain, like buckets of rain. We just thought God sent us here and we didn't know what else to do. All of a sudden this dude jumped out of his car and told us to come in and we started teaching him and his wife and they were looking for the true church, and then he gave a us a ride home. That's what I'm talking about. We are going back tonight.
