Well, this week was SOO FAST BUT SUPER SUPER COOL!! Started out on Tuesday! We worked super hard and invited a lot of people to be baptized. More than anything on Tuesday I had to interview 8 people to get baptized!! Interviews are super super cool to get to know why they are getting baptized, and they always just ball and cry during it! I Love love seeing the changes of people right in front of my eyes! The gospel is really sooo true!!
Aha THEN WEDNESDAY!!!! Mom I couldn't stop thinking about you on this one!! We went to Cuenca!! HA HA super super cool!!! To get there we went through the Andes Mountains!!! So that's a bucket list check off!! I've been over and through the Andes Mountains!! Mom!! I WENT TO WHERE YOU WERE ON YOUR MISSION!! It was COLD!!! I was like oh my gosh what?!?! We got there and started working hard! When we went to bed, it was cold it was the first time in my whole mission that I've used a blanket to sleep with!! AND THEY HAD HOT WATER?!?!? AHH!! The missionaries in Cuenca are spoiled! Anyways, we had a meeting with president there, which was cool! We talked about not harding our hearts! Really, its soo true how fast we are to harden our hearts! It was powerful!!
We got home super super late!! Something that was such a blessing was that here in naranjal we broke records!! WE JUST BROKE THE RECORD of baptisms at one time!! 11!!!!!! It was soo powerful!! 11 baptisms! I had the opportunity to baptize 4 of them!! (I was like totally John the baptist!!) haha super fun!! I loved it soo much!! All of them were confirmed on Sunday!! It took up half of the sacrament meeting to confirm them all!! Presidente Torres came too! I also gave a talk... I was soo nervous President was there! I talked about Jose smith for about 10 minutes and porque el fue muy importante en la restoration!! (why he is so important) Then I had to teach the gospel doctrine class!! Which was about the atonement! I loved it!!
This week was amazing and life changing to me!! I AM SOOO PROUD OF MY AMAZING SISTER WHO FINISHED HER MISSION!! I love you my sister your amazing and the Lord loves you for serving his mission with honor!! I love you Britt!!!!! Way to go!
Love Elder Hammond
