We have had a bit of a rough week in the work but it ended on a high note with a baptism of Zayda. We are really seeing progress with her family. We had originally told them that one of us was going to leave most likely me tomorrow for another area and they didn´t like. But when we found out we were both staying one of the girls said god answered my prays. She will be getting baptized in two weeks with her sister which is exciting. They are really our only progressing investigators and we are trying to find more but it has been hard. Things with Elder Garcia are mas o menos, but we both know that there is something to be learned from one another but we are both proud and some times that causes arguments. It is a new change and I am excited.
A lot has happened I feel like that you don't know about. First changes are today and I am staying with Elder Garcia, a little scared but it should be alright there is a lot to be learned form him. Second we had a stake baptism Sunday after stake conference which was really good the temple President gave an awesome talk and now I want to go to the temple. Anyway 7 people were baptized one of which was Zayda. She is eleven and we have been teaching her and here family for 12 weeks. I am really excited to stay and see them get baptized hopefully we will get the parents there while I am here to which would be sweet, but they have to get married. Anyway so I thought I was leaving yesterday when I was in El Campo. I was telling everyone I was leaving and it is amazing what members will give missionaries. I didn´t ask for anything and came home with a license plate for a motorcycles an awesome book about T-bo and a mug. As well as a ton of great fotos and videos.
I don't have much time but I had a crazy experience two weeks ago while on divisions. I was with a younger missionary in his area and all our plans fell through and we were standing in a park in front of a cemetery. When he said lets go in. I really didn´t want to but was like alright it is your area. Cemetery's are really different here. It is more like a fortress with really tall walls and you put the body inside for two years then pull it out and put the bones in a box. Then it is like putting your box where ever there is room. Anyway as we made our way through the cemetery I found... Wrays
Haha just kidding! But there was only one women in the whole cemetery and she told us about how they do everything and we talked about the Plan of Salvation and then she is like do you want to see my grandpa and then opened the box and there was the bones of her Grandpa just chillin in this box, you could see the skull and all. Kind of cool! Anyway we got her address we will see what is going to happen to her, but it was cool! Anyway I have to go. Take care.
Love
Elder Wray
