Hola! This week was literally so good!!! And crazy! So we contacted this guy named Muzhamed this last week from the middle east and he gave us an address and set up an appointment for the next day. When we went to his apartment an Ecuadorian women answered the door and said that he didn´t live there.. But we kept on talking and we ended setting an appointment with her for a different day. She accepted and this week we visited her and guess what she is the sister of Nancy our investigator! Her name is Mónica and she is so awesome! She has a son and a daughter years 7 and 6. She is in the process of divorce right now so she´s in a hard point in her life. But she wants to know things about the gospel and she came to church yesterday with her kids and really enjoyed it! She´s pretty much never done anything religous in her life and it was so awesome to see her come to church and feel the spirit! I was super worried about her not feeling comfortable in our branch but the members did a really good job welcoming her and her kids in!
So this Friday we had a lesson with Antonio our investigator who was planned to get baptized this Saturday. He tells us that Sunday night he was going to visit his Sister for 2 weeks in a different city in Spain and won´t be able to make it to his baptism so we´ll need to change it. We asked him if he´d rather do it before he left or after and he said before. So we were like oh shoot ok we´ll try to do it tomorrow so we call the branch president and he told us no he didn´t want to rush the baptism and told us to wait the 2 weeks. I was ok with that but my companion really wanted the baptism to go down so he starts calling everyone when we get home so that we could be able to baptize Antonio before he left to visit his sister. Elder Durfey called president deere and he told us that we should do everything we can to get Antonio baptized this last weekend. So after calling a bunch of people and we finally got the permission from the branch president to go ahead and have Antonio´s baptism yester after the Sacrament meeting! So we organized everything in one day and it was so stressful because Antonio still needed to be interviewed by our district leader and after a long weekend everything worked out and the baptism happened yesterday!!!!! It was so awesome I don´t think I´ll ever be so involved in organizing a baptism like that ever again haha.
So crazy story that happened last night. So we are visiting the part member family I wrote about last week. Elder Durfey and I are sitting in a room with Abuelita and also of a sudden we here Mati yell and we turn around and Marta (her daughter) is just laying on the floor. We go up to her and she was unconscious for a few seconds but regains it hardly. Apparently Mati walked in and saw Marta laying there. So the whole family starts screaming at her telling to to wake up and my companion and I tell them that´s not what we should do and we need to be calm and careful with her. So long story short we call the ambulance and they come and get her and take her to the hospital. We were there all night basically so right now I´m super tired. Marta regained consciousness but didn´t remember anything. She thought her name was Ana and that she was 14 years old. She didn´t recognize her mom or anyone. She was like that for a really long time but this afternoon she regained her memory and is normal and she just had an attack of some sort. She has "Syncope" or something so that has happened a few times. It was super scary though I´m really happy that she recovered and is doing ok now.
Well I wish I had time to write more details about the story but my comps ready to go so until next week!
