After writing you all and seeing your
beautiful pictures, I finally found a bit of time to write this letter
to you guys. What do I write? I want to write so many things. Can
happiness really be described in words?
This
transfer has been full of so many miracles! The mission has been full of
so many miracles! But this transfer has been one of the most
miraculous. After everything that happened the first three week- four
weeks, the Lord has showered blessings upon our area, making the
scripture in DyC 58:2-4 even more real and powerful. We went through
having people yell at us, helping out in a funeral, and dengue, to
seeing the Lord lift us up and show his hand in our missionary work. We
have found so many families that are interested in the gospel! We helped
10 people go to church yesterday! We have seen people change lives! I
have seen how the gospel blesses families in amazing ways.
The
miracle that will always be remembered is the miracle of the Duarte
Family. I helped Asucena and her two children enter the waters of
baptism a few months ago, but Asucena's husband, Remedios, wanted
nothing to do with the church. Bit by bit, his heart was softened. The
Lord works in miraculous ways and has blessed his life. Sadly, the
family had to pass through the hardest moments of their lives, but these
hard moments softened Remedios into deciding to be baptized. He is
going to be baptized Saturday
morning, my last day in glorious Navojoa. He is so ready and so eager
to be sealed to his family a year from now. I am so humbled knowing this
family and seeing how the gospel as unified them, just as Heavenly
Father promises us.
If there is one thing I
have learned these past weeks, it is how to be grateful for all the Lord
has done for me this past year and a half. I am 100% certain that
angels have been helping me in this work and it has been wonderful
helping others come unto Christ. This is the true gospel, this is the
one and only church, and I love being a part of this work! My
relationship with my Heavenly Father has grown so much and I am so happy
to be able to say that I am His daughter! I have seen miracle after
miracle here in Mexico and I know that the Lord is going to continue to
provide miracles for me, for my companion, and for everyone I have met
here. (Moroni 7:27, 29) This work is not over and will never be over. It is great knowing
that the Lord provided me the opportunity to be completely dedicated for
this work for 18 months. I plan on keeping on working till the very end.
The Lord still has a lot of work for us to do!
I love you all!
Hermana Zubeldia
