Fernando's B.D. & Box-breaking Z.C. |
|
Nov 10, 2000:
Well we taught Fernando the 5th and it all went well. He almost accepted the choice to set a baptismal date. He confirmed that he will be baptised soon though. On the way home we talked to him about doing it as a surprise for Katia and he seemed to like the idea. He said: "Not this sunday, but the one after." At least that's what he's thinking about. He's still not 100% sure. But things are looking good for him. Now we have to organize the baptismal interview and the 6th.
We had an awesome Zone Conference on Monday (See notes on following pages) it was kind of a box-breaking Zone Conf. But it was good because the Spirit confirmed that I need to improve on some things. It was really good for my companion who had some things that specifically and brutally applied to him. He took it humbly w/ the attitude of improvement. I'm glad president addressed it because I didn't want to have to break my companion's boxes and cause contention in our relationship.
This journal is coming to an end. I never thought I would get this far. It's astounding. These pages have been filled w/ some unforgettable experiences. But there's still a whole other book to fill up. Oh what wonders the future holds!
Today in companion study I cried. It's been a long time since I've actually cried. I think it was the beginning of the mission. I don't really know why I cried. I think it was a combination of many things. I was tired (exhausted) I was sick and we were reading a particularly touching story told by Pres. Monson. It really touched me, and then, once I started, it just felt good. I think I'm feeling a lot of stress. I don't know what from. But I feel it. Bisogna piangere ogni tanto. It's always darkest before the dawn - I hope the dawn is bright.
