Its was a pretty normal week. the other ward that meets in my church building had a baptisim on saturday and so we got to go to that and our investigator antonela came and loved it!! it was a little weird because no priesthood men came... just us four missionaries. so i directed it. i think that was the elders fault tho... they planed it at 6:00 and argentina was playing in the south american cup at6:30... but thats ok!!
This week we had a cool experience with the priesthood!! Joel, the less active and future husband of antonela, did drugs for 7 years. Every single day. and he tried everything there is to try. he would get up at 9 pm and go out in the street druged all night and come home and go to bed and do it again. EVERY DAY... he quit cold turcky. he has now been without drugs for like 20 days. he had been strugling during the night time with withdrawls... he said to antonela that he heard voices saying that he didnt need to be with her, he goes crazy and one night put a knife to his kneck saying he was going to kill himself, and other things... the were kind of scared and didnt know what to do and so we taught them about priesthood blessings and we gave the both of them a blessing. they told us the next day that the night went awesome and that it worked!! they have since told us that he has not had a problem since!! the lord is blessing them so so much!! he got a job!!! she was worried about telling her mom that they were going to get married but she did and her mom was very happy for her!! and as you may have heard it is kind of hard to get a marriage date here. they wanted to do it the 3rd but they couldnt because that day was full... so they got it for the tenth. and they were very worried to i might not be there because of transfers. but today they went to the place and for some reason the got the 3rd!!!!! im so excited for them!!!!!
