So this week after six long months of trying, pep talk after pep talk, lesson upon lesson Jay and Bianca finally got hitched! Jay has been wanting to be baptized for the longest time but has needed to get married before that would be possible. Bianca has met tons and tons of resistance from her family this whole time and finally had the faith to tell them that she is getting married and either they can support her in that or not. Well it was one of the happiest days of my mission so far. They were so happy and they did it! Then the next day Jay was baptized and to quote him 'It felt amazing!!" Next week he will receive the holy ghost and the Aaronic priesthood!
Also this week we got to meet with Cynthia again. She had texted us asking if we could teach her more about temples and how eternal families are possible, she said that she had been feeling angry for having her husband taken from her like he was. And so we were over in a flash. We taught and we testified, and in the very end of the lesson one of her daughters brought me a book. She said "here this is for you, we accidentally took it from the church after the funeral" it was a hymn book. So we opened it and sang them Families can be together forever. Now normally Elder Riding and I aren't the greatest singers, but in this lesson I know angels were attending. The spirit that we felt and the power of the words we sang was amazing. Truly God loves His children to send us not only His son but the Holy Ghost as well. Cynthia is working towards finding that peace and baptism this coming month so that in a years time she and her family can be sealed to her husband and family for time and all eternity. please pray for her.
This week has been one of miracles after many trials for each of our brothers and sisters. we were blessed with the opportunity to give many blessings this week, with each blessing I began to see each person more in the eyes of their Heavenly Father. Please everyone turn to our Father in prayer this week. Be fervent, be honest, and pray without ceasing. I know and testify the God loves his children so so much, truly "hay un Dios" and He is our Father in Heaven. I love and pray for you all, I hope you have an amazing week,
