Where do I even begin? Really, this week
was a week to remember. The Lord showered us with tender mercies and I
reminded me again that I will always be in His debt.
On Tuesday,
a young woman, Selma, walked into the church after our district meeting
and asked us about the church. We gave her a tour and she asked us to
teach her, saying that she wanted to better her relationship with God.
We went to her house on Wednesday and she was so receptive! We were able to set a date for her to prepare to be baptized and she has tons of potential! Wow!
On Wednesday,
we discovered three new members in our English class: Esperanza,
Kitzia, and Yabel. We contacted Kitzia last week and invited her to our English classes, and she brought her family! They loved the church
instantly and found faces they knew.
On Friday,
we were able to help our dear friend, Rosario, enter the waters of
baptism. It was such an amazing service! He invited Kitzia, Esperanza, and Yabel and they were able to witness his baptism. Afterward, Esperanza
was without words as she tried to describe to me the "fire" she had felt
in witnessing the baptism of one of her friends. She said that she
didn't now if she wanted to laugh or to cry because she could't describe
her feelings. After helping her understand that this was the Holy
Ghost, we scheduled an appointment the next day. They were all very so
happy! The Spirit touched their hearts in such a way that they accepted
to be baptized in September.
Sunday
was a day of even more miracles! All our friends who came to church were
just glowing!!! The members were amazing and helped us help our friends
go to Primary, Young Women, Single Adults, Priesthood, and Relief
Society. The Spirit was so strong and testified to our friends that this
church is true. This church is so true!!! I know it is!! The gospel we
know is the true gospel of Christ and it is changing lives!
Looking
back on the week, I am still stunned to see that the Lord loves us so
much! This isn't my work, this isn't my companion's work. Everything
that happened this week was done through the tender hands of He who
loves all of us. I can't believe my Heavenly Father as allowed us to
witness so many miracles! It makes me want to strengthen my
relationship with Him much much much to be able to thank Him for all
that He has done.
I love you all! I invite you
guys to visit with the missionaries this week! It will help make the day
of the missionaries, of the investigators, and yours as well!
