October 26th

Dear family and friends,

Well this week was a normal week until Saturday! But I'll tell you about it a little bit more later in the email. So this last week started off on a good step with finding new people to teach and also contacting people to present our message and share the blessing that we receive from this message. It was great to see that a lot during this week I was being led to share with the people what the spirit wanted me to say. I felt that even during my contacts I was more intune with the spirit this week. Also, on Wednesday we went to Guastatoya to attend the district meeting and it's about an hour in bus... everyone in our zone lives far from us. Guastatoya is an hour away, then Gualan is 1 hour and 15 min away from us but the other direction than Guastatoya and Estanzuela is 30 min away from us. So every time we do divisions it takes away time from working and we are sitting in the bus. But the good thing is that I can catch up on sleep that I miss;) haha!
So then we had divisions on Friday with Gualan and I went with Elder Cabrera and in these last 6 weeks he has had a lot of progress and is learning more during his training as a missionary.
So then on Friday night I did an interview for a kid of 8 years old for the elders of Gualan and sadly, he will be waiting 4 more weeks until he is baptized.

So on Saturday we received a huge blessing! we had an activity which was for kids, dia del niño, and we had a piñata, cake, tostadas (they're different here), juice and games, but we had 4 investigators there! and after the activity we were talking to one of our investigators who we have invited to be baptized on the 21st of November and she said yes if she receives her answer before. Her name is Kimberly and she is 15 years old and she asked,"So my baptism is on the 29th, right?" and we said, "Well, we were talking about the 21st of November if that is okay with you" and she responded, "Yes, I will be baptized that day. I have received my answer"
We were so happy that she said that and that she can be an example for her sisters and her cousins! Also, Kimberly told us that she received a vision about the Book of Mormon and she knows that it is true! It's great to see the blessings and miracles that can happen in the lives of our investigators!

So finally I just want to end with one scripture, which is Jacob 6:12
O be wise; what can I say more?


Love Elder Flygare
