August 10,2014 Another Great Baptism!! Yahoo!

Soooo crazy  - this week!!!!

So first off, the wife of Francisco got baptised!! It was actually really hard because they were going to leave for Mexico City for two weeks so we would have to do the confirmation after the baptism. But that NEVER happens. In fact there is a rule from the first presidency that says you have to do the confirmation during sacrament so we had to get special permisoin from a member of the 70 to do it!!! But we got permision and dunked her and confirmed her. But then it was super awkward because their boss told them they wouldn't have to leave tell next week.. so she went to church anyways. hahahaha

So we are working with this family of Rosa and Julio and they were having alot of problems and weren't going to get sealed in the temple.. But we have been working with them alot and they decided to go to Oaxaca to get sealed and invited us haha so we called Pres and because our Pres is sick he gave us permision to jump in their car for 6 hours go to Oaxaca go do the sealing with them and come back the next day. It was solo awesome! Wow I had never seen a sealing before it really was super special. I'm so blessed to be part of that family's life :) Heck Im blessed to be part of all these peoples lives.

I love you guys and I'm always praying for you guys :)

August 5th 2014 Baptism :)

Another Great Baptism! August 5, 2014

So Girberta got baptised!!!! It was so awesome!!! She was so emotional, and ready to start over a new life. I got to meet her cute little girls for the first time, and I realized that her baptism also is changing that families entire future. So special. And then also that Sunday some guy just showed up to church and  I went to church  in a diffrent state and said he wants to get baptised. And then Fransisco's wife got back and felt super bad that she left and wants to get baptized, so I am hoping her husband (who just received the priesthood will be able to do her baptism!!! I'm so excited!!! They know their goal and that is to enter the temple!!! :D I'm so excited for them.

 I also had to give a zone conference too! To be honest that was a little scary haha because it wasn't like a talk or a district meeting or even teaching members. It was a bunch of missionaries who most of them have more time in the mish and are secretly judging your every move! haha but it went awesome!!! It was fun and my zone seems way cool. Just a couple of rule breaking district leaders with  20 monthes are the only problems because they don't like the idea of a missonary with only year above them.. ahh oh well. I will have to earn their love some how haha but had divisions or exchanges with one of them and we got along way good so liitle bit at a time right?? haha

Anyways I am going to have a year.. wow! that was fast. What have I learned.. Well I have learned alot!! and I have changed a lot. I wouldn't say changed. I would more say gotten better. I'm still JD. I just am a better JD. haha And I know that the most important thing in the entire world is your relationship with God. And how you show your love for God is what really counts.

Love you guys

Love Elder Davenport
