| All the missionaries con Evan y Dylan (other person who was baptized) |
So this week we have been out here grindin' and workin'!!
And we got some really amazing and cool news!! AND Evan was baptized!!!
For starters Elder Delcid and I have been working pretty
hard this past week. Trying to find new people and have a lot of lessons. We
have had quite a bit of success this week too! We have been teaching Carlos and
Jennifer this week along with Jennifer's mom. They are super chill and funny
and actually know quite a bit about our religion and love our standards. De
hecho Carlos has had a pretty rough life, he was in a couple of gangs and still
has to, as he says, "carry protection" because of his past. He really
wants to change his life and has been reading the Book of Mormon and he says he
is finding so much more peace reading the word of God. They are a really good
family and they really like us coming because they say they like the feeling
they feel when we are there!
So the cool news that we recieved is that President Dallin
H. Oaks is coming to the Mision on Feb. 24 and Reynosa Mision is gonna come!!
It will be really cool cause I will get to see my dude Elder Sam Rodriguez! I
am really really excited for that!!
AND Finally this week was the baptism de Evan!!! It was so amazing and the spirit was so strong there!! Afterwards he told me that he felt really peaceful and also he felt "dope". He is such an awesome youth and he has so much potencial!!
Only want to share something that I studied a bit this week from this past General Conference. In a talk by Pres. Uchtdorf called "Portadores de Luz Celestial" he talks about the light of Christ. I just want to share a quote that I really liked from the talk.
"La luz de Cristo infunde esperanza y felicidad, y
produce sanación de toda herida o enfermedad espiritual. Quienes experimentan esta
influencia refinadora se convierten en instrumentos en las manos de la Luz del
mundo para llevar luz a los demás"
The Light of Christ brings hope and happiness!! When we
feel this light in our own lives we are converted into instruments to bring
this light to others!!
Well thats all the time I have today!!
talk to y'all next week!!
les amo y les extraño!!
con amor
