Pretty solid week this week, probably because I wasn't sick haha. Some cool things from the week: We've been teaching a man named Julio recently. I don't know if I've mentioned him before, but he's the father of a less active family and he's not a member. We've been working with them for quite a while and finally (five years after the baptisms of his family) he's progressing! We've had some really good lessons and he and his whole family went to church for the second time in a row! That's the first time he's been to church twice in a row. Good progress.
Also this week we started teaching a sastre (I don't remember how to say that in English). The missionaries were teaching him like a year ago but they stopped visiting, who knows why. We started talking with him and he was like, "What are the requirements for baptism?" Long story short, we explained the requirements for baptism to him and put a baptismal date as a goal that we're going to work towards with him. All he's gotta do is stop drinking alcohol, which shouldn't be too hard with the help of the Gospel.
Also we've been working with that reference that a member gave us (the one of the less active member with her daughter that's 9 years old that she wants us to baptize). They've been able to go to church with us and we have her baptism planned for this Saturday! It's pretty cool because this Saturday is Mexican Independence Day (which must be like Fourth of July but with tamales and tacos and stuff?). We're excited for it and hoping that everything goes well! I'll let you all know how wild Independence Day gets down here.
That's about it for now, hope you all have a great week! Love you guys!
