Week # 51. Training!

                       

Olá everyone!! How was your week??

We've been getting a pretty steady amount if rain here which has been okay cuz we need rain but going out and talking to people has been limited haha but we've still had time to do some fun things!

It's been a ton of fun to see how strong people are in their faith! People love Jesus! And it's been so much fun to be able to build off that love!

We were chatting with a dude in the park who said hes not sure what he believes in but wants to believe in something. He later on said that he would love to learn more about the Gospel! Next time it's not raining, we're racing to the park to see him! Haha its crazy to see what Bruce R McConkie said "people have a desire to worship something, that is given to us from God" not directly quoted but it's very true! I've seen it in so many forms but the one that brings the best results is when we worship God!

We've had a ton of member/friend meals this last week! It's been a blessing from the Lord that I dont have to cook for myself as often haha After a year my skills have improved, buttt not enough haha We had a lesson this week and read the story of Joseph Smith from the Pearl of Great Price and it was so cool to feel the spirit so strong! I'd encourage yall to go re read that!

Alsooo this week I found out I get to train! I'm gonna be a dad!! I'm super excited to get this missionary started on a path to love his mission!

Scripture this week comes from last weeks Come, Follow Me!
Doctrine and Covenants 76:
107 When he shall deliver up the kingdom, and present it unto the Father, spotless, saying: I have overcome and have trodden the wine-press alone, even the wine-press of the fierceness of the wrath of Almighty God.
108 Then shall he be crowned with the crown of his glory, to sit on the throne of his power to reign forever and ever.

I feel like these could possibly be the most important part of the whole section! I know that Jesus did overcome the World and that He did tread the wine press alone. And because of that we get to live forever with our families. I know that He will present the world spotless to the Fathet because it will have been cleansed through Him. #HeLives!

Have an amazing week y'all! Dont forget to say your prayers and read the Book of Mormon! I literally couldn't plead with you enough!

Week # 84. Other cities & conference!

Image
Hello Everyone! This week we had some good experiences so we can just hop right in!  We found that some earlier sisters had worked in a smaller city outside the main city and we decided that we we're gonna go out there and give it a go! I'll just say that was the best decision ever haha we basically got to knock doors for 5 hours straight to a bunch of people that were super willing to hear about Jesus. At one point we got to a house where this lady was washing clothes so we went up, introduced ourselves and asked if we could come back another day because she was busy and she goes, no no! Please sit down! I could never turn away representatives of Christ. My mind was blown!!! So we got to have a super amazing lesson with her right there At another door that we clapped, this older man of probably 80 years old life in him opened his window and we introduced ourselves and then he opened the front door and his son hurried to the door and was like "hey who are you guys!"

Week # 90. Weddings & New Friends!

Olááá Everyone!! We had some miracles this week!! First and foremost, our convert who got baptized two weeks ago, brought his whole family to church!! We were so proud of him!! We immediately went over and talked with them all and our convert goes "so let's mark some lessons right now, and let's have at least two lessons a week." I was so excited!! Not one but two lessons this week!! Then the coolest thing, we got to give him the priesthood :') It really made me remember of when I got it back at 12 and I had so many feelings!! This church is so true!! With the couple that's always so apt to change, we had a stressful week!! So we needed to take them into the city building with like 20 documents for EACH of them so we can get them married! Some how, by a miracle from God, they didnt have any problems!! It all went very smooth:) but then when they asked for my ID I whipped out my Utah Drivers license and they said that wasnt valid and I was like "are you ki...

Week # 88. Three Separate Beings

Image
Olá tudo mundo!! This week we taught a few more reinforcement lessons to our friends who are struggling with the word of wisdom, but these lessons were so good!! For one of our friends we talked about the vision of the tree of life. And when I shared what I thought, I talked about the verse that says: "And after they had tasted of the fruit they were ashamed, because of those that were scoffing at them; and they fell away into forbidden paths and were lost." So from that i talked about how it is the same with us! When we start to get a testimony of something, we learn that not following through with that thing is going down a forbidden path! And then that line "were lost". So SCARY! Basically I told him that now that he is gaining a testimony, he gets to have more blessings but live at a higher standard! And he said he is ready to stay off the Forbidden paths!! Then this week we started teaching a new couple!! Yall. I have never ever had anyone in my mission, pay at...
