Olympic Athletes Train Here


This olympic place is next to our apartments. It is where the olympic athlests train. We tried to get a tourthis morning , but we have to make a reservation. Hopefully we will be able to go in the next couple weeks. That would be really cool.
We are teaching a few different people right now. The people that have baptismal dates are Ximena, Jessica, Katy and Constanza. Ximena has been investigating the church for years and has her life in order now to be able to be baptized. She told us that she set her own date, the 6th of June. … Please pray for her. She is single and has a family on her plate that need a lot of help too. One of her sons is a member and I think he has been active for quite awhile, he is only 14 though I believe. We are trying to go with her and one of her neighbors to do a temple tour tomorrow. I hope all works out well. They both just have a lot to do. You read about Kevin and his mom, we have only taught them a couple of times, but they have felt the spirit. We checked on them yesterday … she hasn´t read the scripture we left with her but said she would do it before we come again this week. Claudia, Felipe and Tamara are a great family that I have only been there once. We invited them to be baptized and they were not opposed. They were hesitant, like many, but they will be as they keep feeling the spirit by using their agency to act. Jessica, Katy and Constanza we taught this last week for the first time and invited them to be baptized. After their initial response...they accepted. They didn´t come to church yesterday, but we are going to keep working with them. We have taught some others the first lesson, and we´ll see how that goes.
