Hey- so we had a very successful week. These past two months we haven't been able to find anyone who was willing to accept a baptismal date. This past week a family of FIVE accepted a baptismal date for the 29th of April. We will see if they prepare themselves and receive their answer from God that its all true.
I went to Caguas to work with Elder Robinson for the day and it was cool. We found 2 really cool families. One of the families were really receptive. We were talking to the wife and then the husband showed up and he screams MORMONES!! haha! We find out he is a less active member - stopped going to church when he was 12. He remembers passing the sacrament as a deacon!
At night we were walking back to our apartment so I could go back to Cayey and we found this dude walking in the street and we gave him a card. He said his brother and his family are members of the church in the Dominican Republic. We started talking about baptism and explained the importance of the keys to baptize. He told us he doesn't know where the keys are. We invited him to be baptized on the 29 of April and he said he would if he knows that this church has the keys - so that was cool!!
We also found another woman. She was talking about polygamy with us. She said that she doesn't know if that was true so that's why she asked us. We cleared everything up with her and she ended up super interested in the Church and the Book of Mormon. We go see her and her family tomorrow. So we will invite her to be baptized also.
Wow! I will be 21 this week!! I'm soo old I can legally drink now-haha. SIKE! Never will do it.
Have a great week!!
