We were blessed to find a lot of incredible new investigators this week. We received a media referral for a woman named Ketline for a Bible. We were able to teach Ketline's whole family; her husband Samuel and her 3 kids Luciano, Karl, and Immanuela. They are a super fun family from Haiti. They have very strong Christian roots and are very open to learning more about the restored church.
Another awesome new investigator we were able to pick up this week is named Paula. She referred herself to us and said that she wanted to be baptized! She told us that 8 years ago she ran into some sister missionaries in Boston. She was heavily involved in another church at the time so she did not meet with them. Recently, she has been going through a very hard trial and she thought back to how she felt when she met the sister missionaries and sought us out. I am so grateful that those sister missionaries 8 years ago were living in a way that they could help Paula feel the spirit enough so she did not forget their interaction 8 years later. She was able to come to church this week and she loved it. Paula's story is a true miracle.
Michelle is still doing well. She wasn't able to attend church this Sunday and we haven't heard back from her yet. If all is well, we hope to see her baptized this Saturday.
It was a great week. The only set back was that early in the week I was feeling pretty sick. On Wednesday, we went to the doctors and found out that I had conjunctivitis (glorified name for pink eye). I am almost back to 100% now! Tomorrow we are supposed to get hit with a pretty big storm so that should be exciting. Thank you everyone for all your support. I love the Lord and am excited to be engaged in His work.
Love,
Elder Gutierrez
