Week 87 - The Ocloco Family and a Baptism tomorrow!!!!








Buenos Dias!

This has been a great week here in Primavera. To be honest we have not had a lot of proselyting time this week because of all of the assignments we have had here in the office. This coming monday are transfers. When transfers come I am in charge of all of the travel logistics, where every missionary needs to go, when they should be there, how they are going to travel, etc. It is lots of fun. It is like a giant living puzzle. Let us hope that all goes according to plan on Monday. I would like to start off by mentioning how awesome last Sunday was. Along with Jessica and her family, Roberto Cabrera, and some other people we are teaching, this past week Brother Oclocho came to church with his whole family for the first time in years. For so many weeks he had been promising to come to church and he finally made the decision. We had arranged with him to go by his house Sunday morning so that we would be able to attend the church together, however, when we arrived to his house Sunday morning nobody was home. We were a little sad only to find, when we arrived to church Sunday morning, Brother Oclocho with his whole family filling up a full row of seats 15 minutes before church started. Each one was seated reading the scriptures, all ready to go. It was awesome. 

In addition if everything goes well tomorrow Jessica Murga and her two sons Daniel and Juan are going to be baptized. They had originally had the goal to be baptized tomorrow however they want their whole family in attendance so they decided to change their own baptismal date. On Wednesday we were conversing with Jessica about how she would like to go about it and she mentioned to us that she was not willing to go another week without being baptized and receiving the gift of the Holy Ghost. Awesome right?!? After one is baptized they receive what is known as the gift of the Holy Ghost, the right to have God's spirit with us always as long as we are worthy. 

We are all super excited for the 8am baptism tomorrow which will be followed inmediately by the regular church service. The mission is awesome. 

Love,
Elder Vassau
