Well another week has came and gone! It was a very good week, the only problem was Osvaldo was not able to be baptized. Here is a recap of the week.
On Tuesday, I had interchanges so I went to the zone leaders district so that one of them could go and interview Osvaldo for his baptism. I had a really good time there. Elder Flamenco is who I was with. He is from Boston so we talked about Boston a lot haha. Osvaldo did not get baptized this last week, but he will be this week. He is very excited and cannot wait for his baptism. It actually ended up being a blessing that he was not baptized though, because we got the opportunity to talk to his parents. His parents at first hated us and told Osvaldo if he was baptized they would kick him out of the house. We never had the opportunity to talk to them before, but after the interview they talked to his parents just a little bit. We went back the next day and invited them to church. They said they probably would not go because they are super catholic. But surprisingly, on Sunday when we stopped to pick up Osvaldo for church his whole family was ready and we brought his mom and dad and sister as well. They all liked it a lot.

We also met a menos activo family this week. They are very cool and we got them to come back to church. Then last night we went to their house for a family night and they had some friends over too. We taught them about baptism and now they all accepted dates to be baptized.
We had 6 people come to church this week. It was definitely a good week for us. Xavier could not go because of work but we are still teaching him. Eddy the guy that was in the hospital is now home and he went to church. He is a member and he is a very cool guy. His mom and sister are not members and they went to church with them Sunday as well.
Well over all it has been a very good week. It was nice to end the week with 6 people at church! In all we have 9 people that should be going to church for this next week. It should be a good one!
Love, Elder Sorensen
