What a crazy week. Lots of lessons taught but not a lot of
progression. Lots of craziness all around. Here are just a couple of the high
lights:
Mari Carmen brought 2 friends to church on Sunday and they arrived
just a tad bit late and walked in looking as lost as 3 cave men at the Apple
store. It was pretty good how the members helped them to a seat and got them
comfortable. What a miracle she has been for the ward and for us. They are all
just a great miracle for the ward. I think they helped a bunch getting the fire
under the seat to get us a ward mission leader. We will have one by next week.
That is necessary!!!!!!
In that same testimony meeting on Sunday a member got up and shared
a rather tragic story how her brother in law had swung and hit her with an axe
on the head and how she was grateful that Jesus was protecting her. That was
when I put my head in my hands and said ¨this is no longer a testimony
meeting´. Welcome to a ward full of recent converts. I love it!
Salvatore came to church again. He is great! We are trying to set
him up so that he can be baptized before I leave. I love that man with all my
heart!
This week we also helped Mari Carmen clean off her balcony. That
thing was nasty. This may seam weird but I missed that. Doing random chores
with the boys and dad. Those were such good times. I never thought that I would
miss getting dirty and working but it happened. ha We just didn´t have time
after to go get ice cream.
We felt the need to go knock a building of a former friend that we
had previously been teaching. WE felt that the Lord was preparing someone
around her. Right when we got to the building the door was opened and then I
closed it. I then heard someone outside so I opened the door so they didn´t
have to pull out their keys. Just about gave this lady a heart attack as I
opened the door. She had been prepared by the Lord. She had been looking for
the true church and had resorted to some church. It´s all good with her. Her
name is Loana.
Would you please unite with me and pray for Salvatore, Joy, Girard
& Allison, Loana, and Asunción.
Thank you all! I thank you all for you love and support. I hope that
you have Angels supporting you in all that you do!
Love y´all!

These are the boys whose hands the future of the church is in? |
