It's Fall in Santigo

This week was great! we had a really good day and we saw some great miracles this week! 

Namely, with Edna Bernard! Her husband was baptized two years ago, and she is now getting married this weekend! We had to go with them to the civil registry and we did their paperwork in preparation for their marriage this Saturday! We are really excited for them! They are a great family and the ward is all in on the planning and putting this wedding together!

We had an open chapel this past Sunday in another ward in our stake. This activity consist of us getting people to come into the church for a 15 minute tour of our church where we explain basic fundamental teachings and show the baptismal font and talk about baptism! The idea is great, but the only difficult part is getting people in! We had no luck for the first hour and a half! There weren’t that many people on the streets and we had been getting denied until we came across a lady by the name Elizabeth. We approached her and we wanted to contact her but before we could speak, she asked us, ´”what do you believe happens after this life?”´ We were absolutely shocked!, We expressed to her the importance of families and about what happens beyond the grave and our belief on eternal families. She told us about how her son had passed away and how she had felt with the difficulty of losing him. We invited her in and she came and really enjoyed the capilla abierta! 

That was a really gratifying experience! and helped me know that there will always be people who NEED this message of what comes after this life! I am excited to see how it goes for them in the next few weeks for the elders of that ward!
