Hey Hey
Hey!
This week was so great
but a little hard, but great. Haha. If that makes sense. Let me just start off
by saying that when we are in a place at a specific moment, we are there for a
reason. Teaching a lesson in the temple with Marita, an investigator that only
has interest in learning English but my companion and I felt that it’s time to
change the routine and teach lessons. We asked her to be baptized in the temple
after we taught the Plan of Salvation, which was such a spiritual, experience
because the Holy Ghost was so strong and so powerful during the lesson. She
accepted the invitation to be baptized and I just know that she will receive an
answer that this is the true church. We promised her blessings and I have never
felt so guided by the spirit during a lesson ever in my entire mission until
this moment. Heavenly Father works miracles when we actually listen to him and
speak words through the Holy Ghost. Marita is 52 years old and has two kids,
and a husband. They are very Catholic, but she just wants to feel the love,
peace and blessings in her life because she has problems in her family and I
just know The Gospel is what will help her and is what she needs. When we were
walking around the temple in the gardens, I saw two members from Claypole and
we invited them to accompany us in the lesson in the temple. It was so awesome.
I just loved having the connection with my area anterior.
Though Gods children are
always prepared to listen to the gospel and follow the correct direction, doesn’t
mean that they’re ready for baptism right now, everything is in the Lords time.
Maria said that she doesn’t want to listen to us anymore and doesn’t want to
have the lessons. I don’t know why, were going to visit her this week to find
out exactly what happened. With this experience, I just felt so much love for
Maria and just want her to feel the love I feel in the gospel. All we can do
right now though, is pray that her heart will be softened and that we’ll be
able to find out what her need is.
Las Hermanas Son
Bendecidas!
We have 4 members that
want to wash our clothes for us. It’s great because we don’t ever have laundry
to do and don’t have to wash our clothes by hand or my soap. Haha. The members
in this ward are so awesome.
One of the recent
converts, Candela, she is 13 years old and wants to leave and walk around and
visit people with us. She has so much animo and just loves the gospel. So she
accompanied us on Saturday and practically was the missionary talking to
everyone. I love it because she now wants to serve a mission because of us and
helping her experience a little part of missionary work.
Raining all day
yesterday!
When it’s raining it’s
so hard to talk to people and literally no one opens their doors but members
do! Haha. So we clapped in front of a family’s house to take cover and they let
us in. And to make us even happier, they made waffles for us. Woohoo! Haha. It’s
the little things in the mission that makes missionaries so happy.
I’m going to give you
guys a challenge this week. Try to smile more, smile when you’re angry, smile
when someone cuts in front of you when you’re driving. I know that if you do
this you will feel the spirit so much more in your life. Entonces, Lo Hara?
Will you do it?
I love you guys and have
a good week!
