so this week has been better we have found a pretty cool family in Saraguro
that came with us to church on Sunday. They are the Moposita family and they are
preparing to be baptized on the 31st of may. You have Pedro Moposita(40), his
wife maria Moposita(35), and their children Jonathan(13), Marixa(11),
Miguel(10), and Erika(8). they all, except for Jonathan, came to church on Sunday. The two sector situation makes it hard to do, i am in two cities, one in Saraguro out side of Loja and i am in Loja. Monday we are here in Loja, Tuesday Saraguro, Wednesday Loja, Thursday Saraguro, Friday Loja, Saturday Loja. On Sundays we drop our investigators in Loja off at church at 8am then leave to go catch
the bus for Saraguro so we can set up the room/chapel and pick up our
investigators before church at 11. The church in Saraguro is weird because
there are only a few members. They give prayers, they don't have priesthood, so we
bless the sacrament, give the talks, lead the music, and teach gospel principles. The members in Loja of the branch that Saraguro pertains too (because it is only
an extension of the branch in Loja that is why we have the both) do not go very
often they think its too much church, so they just told me yesterday that i am the 3rd counselor of the branch
presidency so they can have someone preside when they are not there.
This
week has been great. In my studies these past two week of the Book of Mormon in Spanish i
have made it almost to Alma. one of the last things i read was about Abinidi
when he was preaching to Noah. King Noah almost changed his mind about killing Abinidi and letting him go, but he ended up listening to his priests and decided
no, we need to be ready for peer pressure in our lives because we should always
remember who we are and what we stand for.
I love you all have a good
week.No pictures this week :(
