Howdy!
We had a fun week this week, with lots of different teaching opportunities and working with members. I love the members here in Ypanè, they make me feel like I’m with my family again. They even had us take a photo with all of the mothers of the ward (they celebrate mothers day a week after the States here in Paraguay), because they see us as their kids haha. And they have lots of desire to work with us. We set a goal this Sunday to teach an investigator with at least one member present each day, so we are going to be implementing that this week. We also had a great visit with our friend Andrea, where she told us that she had a desire to be baptized! So this Sunday or next Saturday we will probably have her baptismal service, so I have a lot to look forward to in the next coming weeks.
Yesterday President Nelson had his devotional for the young adults of the church. Sometimes it’s weird to think that I am technically a young adult, because it feels like just yesterday I was still a priest. But the devotional made me think a lot about who I am, specifically who I have become while on the mission. I can say that I know that I am a:
-Son of God
-Child of the Covenant
-Disciple of Jesus Christ
I want to invite all of you to find out who you really are, and avoid putting labels on yourselves that are more important to you than these other 3 truths. I know that when we do so our life will have purpose and fulfillment.
That’s it from me, have a good week!
