Sharing insight and testimony is so great haha this past fast
 sunday one of the returning members that we are working with shared his
 testimony for the first time ever in sacrament meeting! It was so 
incredible, this past week he has been able to see a lot of blessings. 
He and his wife came over from Guatemala with literally nothing. He 
works a lot and his wife is about to have a baby in like 3 weeks. They want 
to be sealed in the temple but havent been able to pay their tithing 
recently. We have been teaching them and last month he payed some fast 
offerings then a little bit of tithing. Later in  that month they had to
 pay a 10,000 dollar bill..some debt they had before I think..but after 
meeting with some people they were able to lower it to about 1,500!! His
 testimony grew so much! and he committed to pay a full tithe from here 
on out! He bore is testimony so simply saying that God is always there 
for us. It was so powerful :) I am so glad I got to know them and so 
excited for their baby to come! :) haha I just realized that I was going
 to share something about testimonies and kinda went of on a 
tangent..sorry ;)
 We almost had a baptism
 yesterday..everything the was ready and set up, then Ricky 
(investigator) came late to church and didnt take the sacrament and then
 left early...we didnt feel right about it and that he really understood
 what baptism meant...so we had to call him and tell him that there 
wasnt going to be a baptism...it was so hard.. and his girlfriend 
(member) got so mad at me ... hopefully after a few days they will 
realize we did it out of love...but it was hard.We have transfers this week and a lot of changes are happening. We still dont know who is going and staying but we will find out soon!
