Week 46 in the Field - The Year Mark, Horus´ Baptism, Let the Holy Spirit Guide

Another quick email this week.

This week I celebrated a year in the mission. Super happy for the experiences I´ve had and excited for those which are still to come. Didn´t do much to celebrate my year. On the third we had interviews with President and I went on divisions with the assistents. This week we did have a fire on the roof though and we watched meet the mormons and ate flame-roasted sausages.

This week we baptized a 23 year old guy named Horus. His mom and brother have been members for over a year but he had a hard time accepting the church. Finally the Spirit converted him though and he´s happy to be a member. After the service he said he felt like a changed man and said that he wants to stay active in the church. He has a chance to go on a mission so we´ll help him work towards that goal.

This week we had some cool experiences in following the spirit. One day our appointment for free lunch with members fell through and we felt like we should go to a particular restaurant to eat and when we got there there were members eating and they treated us to a free meal. In another experience we were lost on the way to a baptismal interview in another companionship´s area and the spirit told us where to go and we found exactly where the other Elders were. Truly as we strive to be worthy of the spirit´s guidance and follow His promptings we will be blessed.

Love you guys so much and hope you have a great week!

I got my year package this week and it was awesome! Loved the candy and beef jerky, the books were cool, especially the Guatemalan one by James Lesueur, I´m in the process of reading it. Socks were great too, and the newspaper with Tatum in it. Recipes were great but its always hard because its so hard to find american ingedients here.
