Hello everyone! Oh my goodness, Soeur Mataalii and I couldn't have come up with a better way to end our week. We have an amie, her name is Maria. She's known the church for a while now, and wants to get baptized, but has a hard time really understanding that means coming to church every week. And it doesn't help that she and her family has been super sick recently. But nonetheless, Maria is still serious about learning more and getting baptized, and her husband, Filipe, although not really interested himself, is fine with her getting baptized. She had said that she would come to church yesterday, but then, yesterday morning, she sent a text that said she couldn't come. Of course, we were SUPER bummed, and a little bit frustrated, but then she said we could come over at 5 o'clock. So we went over to her house, and her husband let us in. Filipe has always been super nice, but yesterday, when he left us in, he was super welcoming. He then informed us that he would be joining us for the rdv. So, of course, we adjusted the lesson, and decided to talk about the plan of Salvation, focusing on eternal families. Soeur Mataalii eventually posed the question, if he wanted to be with Maria forever, for ETERNITY, and Filipe actually started to cry, and said yes, and that Maria was his other half and that he loved her so much. Long story short, it was amazing, and we fixed baptismal dates with the TWO of them! MIRACLE!!!
I hope all is going well with everyone! We couldn't be happier! I love you all, pray for Maria and Filipe!!!
Avec amour,
Soeur Bracken
