First, a couple pics from P-day:
Is this the Christmas turkey?
Hna. Rippstein taking a little rest...
A cool story to share:
We contacted this couple in the central park of Leon and they seemed really really enthusiastic that we come to their house and quick and so because it wasn't in our area we gave the reference to the elders (my friend Elder Mendez in the picture- he is our zone leader and actually goes home this week) and we urged them to go visit them quickly. So they did, but it was the wrong address and I remember I asked them if they at least contacted the wrong address. They said yes. This was at the beginning of this change. Didn't hear anything else about it till Elder Mendez introduced me to this man, Juan, who was the wrong address.
Turns out that he is going to be baptized this Saturday. They wouldn't have found him in the precise moment he needed help if we hadn't been at the park at that time contacting that couple who gave us the wrong address. I don't believe it was an accident. Not at all. God works in mysterious ways. It was really cool getting to be a small part of this whole thing. If I stay in León this next change, I will get to go to his baptism. Remember that sometimes we dont know why things happen but they do happen for a reason. Maybe we won't see it until far down the line, but it is there.
