Yesterday at conference, a family that has been
investigating the church told me the 19th of this month is no good. I got confused,
“What do you mean, 19th?” and they said, “Oh for our baptism, isn't it marked
for the 19th?”
We had invited the family last week to be baptized but they didn't
accept. But now they have accepted and want to be baptized this week on Saturday.
It’s a conference miracle.
Beyond that super miracle, this week was normal. Conference
was great, but on Sunday I got frustrated because we showed up an hour late.
On Sunday we went to lunch a little earlier than normal to
be able to get to church before 1 o´clock. When we got to lunch we learned that
the family´s car had two flat tires. And the last bus to conference left right
when we got to their house. No bus, no ride, no way to get to conference on
time. So we walked to the nearest bus stop and got a bus. When we got off the
bus an older women got off too walking with a cane. It was irmã Maria, she saw
us and got excited and asked if we were going to conference. We said yes and
she said, “Oh good because I’m always scared to cross the street alone. Can you
guys help me?”
I think the Lord made us late to help her cross the street.
But it’s all good here, we are excited for the baptisms and
a new week.
Elder Willard
