Veronica is going to get baptized! We feel a little like the boy who cried wolf, but we are pretty sure this one is for reals. We fasted last Sunday that her husband would let her get baptized, and we talked to her on Tuesday and he had said she could! And we met with him on Friday and have a return appointment with him today! It was very exciting to feel the Spirit during that lesson. We were late, so we had run across the lawn, and my shoe fell off and I stepped in mud. We then got in Veronica's house and her husband was "taking a shower". He always does that right when we come.... We asked Veronica if we could come back in 20 minutes and she told us to stay and wait! So we did, and he finally came out and we had a wonderful talk about how he had seen Veronica change since she started learning about the Gospel. We asked him if he wanted that and he said "Who wouldn't?" We were thinking in our minds "Exactly!" Needless to say, the Spirit did the teaching and we just sat there. It was fun to feel like we had been the Lord's tools to help.
Lilia had a blessing on Wednesday and that was really nice. We sat there and listened. She said she felt a lot of peace. That is what we ask for her, because her life sure isn't easy right now.
One lesson I am really grateful that I am learning is the importance of a good home. So many children are suffering and they don't even know because their parents are not living in a way that nurtures their children or helps them learn correct principles. It makes me really want to create a good home for my children.
Love you all!
