Baptism!!!

So Ingrid was baptized this past Saturday and it was amazing!!! She felt so good, and different- she just kinda bounces around everywhere now- we taught her Sunday night and she already has a calling, and is preparing to go to the temple the end of this month. She is so excited- and wants her family to be a part of it. Her family came from Miami to see it, and it was so great! We just love her. Sister Butt was saying how lucky we were to be a part of this- the Lord has been preparing her for so many years, as well as her cousin, we were so lucky to help see this part of the conversion process!!!!!
Paco is still doing really well, he also has a calling, and is learningn so much, has great questions and a very strong testimony.
We were able to go contact some referrals this past week, and were able to meet some great people and get some new investigators whom have potential. All of them are referrals or family members of recent converts/less-actives so that is fun!
It is getting hotter and hotter. It is insane. Also crazy rain storm, umbrellas did nothing for us, it was fun though, we were able to have a lesson with our branch mission leader in his doorway about missionary work!!
We were able to contact some former investigators, and had some funny experiences with that. Surprising ones actually, where I had to eat insanely spicy chicken- been a while since that had to happen- and carbonation is NOT the remedy.
A lot of this week was spent preparing Ingrid, and contacting referrals and formers. It was a lot of fun, and we learned so much! We received 31 new missionaries into the mission on Wednesday and so there is so much more help, and ways that we need to serve them! Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ are so organized, it is amazing, and we are loving seeing how amazing things happen when you do it in the Lord's way. He has to be so pleased with all of his missionaries starting their service, I know he is! This is a great work, and I am so happy to be witnessing it. It is historic!!

Love you all!
Sister Coleman
