This week we have an investigator getting baptized!!! We also have solid baptisms lined up for all the weekends this transfer! :) Whoo hoo!!!
Also I love all our investigators so much!!! I love hearing them pray for us!!! It brings the spirit into the room so strong!!! Martha feeds us every time we go to teach her. Hahaha. It is so awesome!!!!
Then we got invited to a baby shower. We didn't go, but we were on bikes when we passed the house. The whole house was shaking with rap music. Thug baby shower, for the win.
We taught Prisma the law of chastity!!! This is how is went. "Oh....we're not married, so are we living in sin." Awkward silence... the Spirit prompted me and I asked. "So, do you want to get baptized?" "Yes." "Do you want to get married?" "Yes. But not to him". So then there was more awkward silence. Then she went to her room, and talked to her boyfriend, one minute later she came back and said, "Okay. We'll get married." My jaw dropped. But yay!!!

I finally, after 5 months of my mission, contacted a person driving down the street in a motorized scooter!!!! It was the most exciting thing in my life!!!! He was super nice! We also have been doing so much better in street contacting! Sister Allen, has even been taking the lead!!! :) I'm so proud of her.

This is a quote from the other day!!! We were teaching some of our youth about sharing the gospel with their friends!!! This is what one of the girls said to another one who was worried about rejection!!

Only the best analogy of my life. Yesterday during a lesson Hermana Allen said, "Taking the Lord's name in vain is like taking your grandma's prized golden sweater, and then cleaning your car with it. She gave you a gift that was really important to her and then you totally just totally trash it."

Then we were talking to our 13 year old investigator, who will be getting baptized next week! We asked, "Julius, what is your favorite hymn, that you want to sing at your baptism." He took a few seconds and then excitedly said, "TURN DOWN FOR WHAT!" Hermana Allen and I literally fell over laughing!! Hahaha. That's my favorite hymn ever. :)
Hermana Allen got poisoned by cornbread this week. Ijole! :/
"You are the hardest working sisters I've met on my mission!" -Elder May. That was my favorite moment of the week.
21 lessons taught this week! Whoo hoo!!!!! We have so many people progressing toward baptisms!!!!
Love you!!! Have a great week! <3 Christmas Cards are in the mail!!!
