#21 - Saturday Saints....

Hello!!!

This guy we met this week gave us chicken and said he wanted to be a Saturday Saint (Latter Day saint). He's pretty cool! But he prefers english, so we had to pass him over to the English elders. 
Luis #2 who gave us BBQ chicken! (Saturday Saint)
This guy is the best member ever, he's the one who baptized Luis, and 20 years ago he was in a wheelchair and paralyzed, and now he can do hand stands.. I don't know how!
Most of what we did this week is in my recording! But the highlight was definitely Manuel's baptism!!!!! (I'll send pictures next week) It was so sweet, and so many people from the ward came, and President Mackay came too! He's going to come teaching with us so we're really excited.


Met a lady who was 93 the other day, and she stood up to say a prayer!
I wanted to share a scripture in John 4 that talks about member missionary work that the English bishop shared with us yesterday

 35 Say not ye, There are yet four months, and then cometh harvest? behold, say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fieldsfor they are white already to harvest.
36 And he that reapeth receiveth wagesand gathereth fruit unto life eternal: that both he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice together.
37 And herein is that saying true, One sowethand another reapeth.
The missionaries are the reapers, and the members are the sowers. I realized that before my mission I didn't do a lot of sowing. I definitely could have done a lot more to share the light of Jesus Christ with others. So I'd like to invite you all this week to find some way to reach out to someone that needs that light and to share it. 
Some guy gave us flowers, and then we gave them to Luis #2 
Love you all!
