Well, ever since 7pm last night just about every little thing that could go wrong or be messed up has done so. At first I was irritated and everything, but now it just amuses me more than anything. It's even kind of funny. Kind of a bummer though for the one day you have to destress and relax. But we can at least count on something really awesome happening soon, because if it wasn't the case, we wouldn't have all these problems right now. Just trials. I will take some trials so that I can get some good rewards later.
We are teaching many investigators, including 5 families, 2 of which are really really awesome and should be baptized this weekend. One of the families that should be baptized this Saturday? They were going to be baptized in April, but then the wife´s aunt died. And then a lot of complications happened so it has been difficult to find them, y'know, just one thing after another, one of the complications being the perilous sickness of the husband´s father. We reput a baptismal date for them this week now (the 3rd date they´ve had now), and they were all set to come to church on Sunday - when the wife gets called that another of her aunts has died. And she called us and she was like... that's it. I'm getting baptized this weekend. FOR SURE. So that's pretty interesting. The other family is one that my comp was teaching before but she dropped them because they were not progressing. Turns out all they needed was a little time to see the difference in their lives and they have been progressing steadily ever since they invited us back to continue the lessons. They are so excited to be baptized too. I love finding families as special as they are. They say that Hna. Padilla and I are like their own daughters and they are always giving us food and fruit drinks. Love it.
When life stinks, look for the good parts. There are always more better parts than crappy parts. You just have to actually open your eyes to see them. I hope you guys are trying to do your very best every single day. If you aren't, fix it. I'm so happy. The mission is amazing and truly indescribable.
