Hungary for the Gospel: Week 31: Luca is Getting Baptized!

Luca is the most prepared person everrrrrr!! We taught her everything in a matter of a week and she accepts it all! She has a ton of faith and she wants to be baptized on April first except this will not be an April fools joke...at least I hope. She is super awesome and a great example to me about faith! She had her baptismal interview on Saturday and we will be meeting with her for two more weeks before her baptism!

Szilmari Laszlo is also doing super well! We taught him the Word of Wisdom and he accepted it super well! He said he will stop smoking and he asked if he needs to stop smoking in order to get baptized! So he is thinking about baptism, we just need to get him to church because he takes care of his mom. But if there is a will there is a way so we will be giving him a bap date this week.

On P-day we didn't do much because Parliament was closed so we went sight seeing at the downtown part of Pest.

We also went on splits on Friday and I was with Elder Harris who was also at BYU when I was there so it was super fun! We went to Cspel which is this large island in the south part of Budapest. We were supposed to have a meeting with a Less Active but our member present was late so we went tracting. We were tracting and this guy in his 20s came up and we introduced ourselves and he was super interested in us, why we are here, and the gospel. We got his number and the other elders are meeting with him so that was super cool! The lesson that we had with the less active was super great! The spirit was super strong and Elder Harris assigned a scripture that previous missionaries assigned her a couple of months ago. We all thought it was super funny! There are no coincidences in the gospel! #splitmiracles

Anyways this week was super great and my faith in finding has increased! Thank you all so much and have a fantastic week!

Love,

Elder Ballard
