Well! Another great week down here in BrownTown. We have two main investigators right now! Juan and Roberto! Juan is actually going to be baptized this coming Sunday! He is such a miracle! We drove by his house the other day and saw him outside his house reading the Book of Mormon! Nothing makes a missionary happier than to see that! Roberto was a miracle as well! He showed up at a garage sale of the mother in law of our ward mission leader. They talked for a bit and he said he was looking for a church. She (non-member by the way) told him that her family goes each week and invited him! He's come twice now and we've had the chance to teach him a few times. He's one of the most humble people I have ever met! He loved church because everyone was just so nice and kind to him!
As well, this past Sunday was interesting because we got to
teach a lesson about the 10 commandments to the entire primary! hijole! We were
teaching in Spanish but half spoke back in English and half in Spanish and the
primary presidency only knew Spanish! We made it through all 10 and now when we
walk around the Iglesias, all we have to say when we see the kids is "Que
es numero sies?" y they respond "no mataras!" (don’t kill) with
their finger-guns pointed at us. Nos divertimos mucho! Que mas... I'm nearing
the end of the book of Mormon in Spanish finally! It truly has been a miracle
to see how far I’ve come with the language! Sorry for the Tex-Mex as
well...we're just starting a 2 week fast from English and the switch doesn’t
always happen so fast!
Hard to believe its March already...but the great news with
time moving so fast is that conference is just around the corner! We had the
chance to give a couple priesthood blessings in the past week or so and they
were all wonderful experiencias that reminded me of how blessed we are to be
alive in a time where so many have the priesthood of God!Quiero darles mi testimonio! que yo se que dios nos ama y que el siempre nos invita a hacer lo bueno!
I want to give you my testimony! that I know that God loves
us y that He Always invites us to do the good!
Estoy agredecido que el Espiritu santo nos habla
personalmente y que conoce los deseos de nuestros corazones y que la expiacion
de cristo nos da la fuerza para superar las debilidades y desafios que nos
enfrenten.
I'm grateful that the spirit speaks personally to each of
us, knows the desires of our hearts and the atonement of Christ gives us the strength
to overcome weakness and challenge!
Les amo mucho!
Con amor,
Elder
