Wow
I can{t that Thursday is Thanksgiving crazy!! I feel like we just
started November.. It so hoooottt here I'm starting to die! So enjoy the
beautiful snow for me.. I'm doing great here in Arica we are
preparing for our two kids Sebastian and Paula,kids of a less active
mother to be baptized Saturday which is great because the mom is now
reactive. We are completing this family in the gospel and I love it. We
were in the church waiting for the people to show up and first were our
engaged couple Gabriel and Paulina who are getting married on Saturday
and then she will be getting baptized soon.. Then arrives our cute
family Oreggo with Seba in nice new shirt and tie and Paula in a new
dress.. They all arrived on time and dressed perfectly it was so great
to see them all there with joy in their eyes. We had our Principle de
Evangelio class full of converts and invest and an amazing member
teaching.. Ah I love Sundays like this. In the after we stopped by Grace
who is now fully active and we could just feel the spirit in here home
the moment we walked in. She has grown in her testimony so much. We gave
he the Relief Society daughters in my kingdom book and she loved it...
She began to cry of joy and testifies more of her experience .. its been
so great to be with her in every step returning to this gospel.. This
is another moment in which i am truly blessed to watch.
I
have been trying to focus every moment that i can here in the field in
on the people. Its hard with only weeks left in the mission to know that
on December 18, 2012 I will be able to be back with you all. I have
been trying to not be "trunky" which iswhen missionaries think all about
the home which does pass my mind every so often. Especially when ending
a lesson and our investigators or the members begin to pray for each of
you . It makes me feel truly blessed that i have been able to gain the
confidence and love of so many people here that speak a different
language and have a different culture that they remember about me and my
wonderful family in their prayers. We have a great investigators that
starts each prayer with " heavenly fathers were all here your children
Ashley, john. sister Burnett and sister cram"(names changed) Ah its so
precious, because they are truly praying from their heart nothing
memorized that which sometimes happens to us as members. This work is
truly wonderful the work of the Lord is great. He truly loves each and
everyone of us and wants the very best for us. He wants to become Gods
and Goddess and to complete every goal that we have.. He is with each of
us every day waiting to help us. And the way we may receive his help
and guidance is through sincere prayers with a lot of faith. I challenge
you all to become more humble and give more prayers on your knees learn
to give the Lord time every morning and evening to hear your voice and
to help you with your problems and give you many blessings. I love you
each and know with all my heart this Gospel of Jesucristo is true and
that he is our Savior!!!
Read more, pray more and be more grateful !!
