Week 76 in Paraguay Change 13 Week 3

So first things first, I'll get things out of the way with the Mother's Day call, so this time the area presidency only approved 40 minutes for us to be on the phone, I want you to call at 4:00 your time in the evening.

Anyway, as for the week, we had a super awesome Sunday. We had 8 investigators in church, that is double than the highest I have ever had in the rest of my mission, we have 7 people that have baptismal dates and 4 that are getting baptized within the next 10 days. Two are getting baptized this Sunday after church, Milciades and his little brother Jorge, and then two more, Jorge and Diana, are getting baptized the following Wednesday. We are going to have a whole lot happening in the next couple of weeks. Finally seeing the fruits of our labors. It was so nice this Sunday because we didn't pass by anyone because it was getting close to the date for their baptism and we had to make sure that they were able to go to church on their own, and everyone showed up. Milciades came bringing all of his family, including 3 investigators. Jorge and Diana came with a member friend that they had, and then we went by 2 other investigators to take them to church and when we got there they were outside waiting for us with another friend that they had invited to come with them, 3more investigators, and 5 that came without our help at all! It was such a great feeling during sacrament meeting watching the members greet them and help them understand the hymns and things like that, it was awesome. All of them are really excited about baptism, a few of them are kids that we are teaching and the mom isn't too excited, so we are takng a little more time with them, but hopfully all of their enthusiam will help the mom to go to church one sunday to get to know what it is that her kids are enjoying so much. She shares with us during the lessons, but never wants to go to church, but we are still working there.

Anyway, so I don't have very much time, I took a lot of time trying to figure things out with the call with Elder Cambra. I love you all so much, I love this work and I know that our Savior lives, He lives and loves each of us, I can't wait to talk to you all on Sunday! Love Elder Adamson V
