How is everyone this week?! CONNER HAPPY BIRTHDAY on the 17th!!! How was it? And Tiff and Jas HAPPY ANNIVERSARY (a couple weeks ago...I know)! Did you guys do anything fun? I hope it was a great week!Things here are great! I am seeing the hand of the Lord in my life and the lives of those we are teaching more and more everyday! My companion and I started this transfer fasting and praying for the opportunity to teach a family that was looking for the gospel and ready to accept it in their lives. Last week we met this family and last night we marked baptismal dates for the mom, dad, and their daughter for the 12th of September. It is such a great blessing to see this family and their desire to follow the example of Christ. Their daughter is 11 years old, Virginia, and she is super smart! She has read every part of the Book of Mormon we marked and understands better then a lot of adults we teach. When we asked her if she´d prayed about it she said...i did...first I prayed and then I had a really good feeling and I knew it was true. It was so simple and clear for her. As she said this her mom´s eyes were filled with awe. What an awesome example for all of us there. One of our other investigators, Jeisson, has a cousin who is a member in the ward here and was helping him a lot but about a month and a half ago they got into an argument and stopped talking. I love them both and seeings that Jeisson doesn´t have parents or other family around he didn´t really have anyone. This situation was really sad to me and one day we were talking with Jeisson and he said he didn´t think it would pass. We told him that we would pray for them. A few days later they started talking and things are better and Jeisson was at church again on Sunday and told me that our prayers were answered and tonight we have a family home evening scheduled with the two of them. The Lord has such great love for each of His children and with out a doubt answers our sincere prayers! I am praying for each of you and love you all! Have a great week!
Beijos!
