| my dude Schenck! |
So this past week has been a pretty good week of straight
work. Its pretty funny right now because I have 2 lines that show that we have
been out working according to my companion Elder Alfaro. I have a super super
bad watch tan line and I also have a weird line on my shirts at the end of the
day from my bag. So yeah we have been out here grinding in the heat. Oh yeah it
is also getting pretty hot here in Monterrey, especially when there is no such
thing as Air Conditioning here, like it just doesn’t exist here. At night it
feels like I am sleeping in a brick oven.
Ok back to the point, so this week we were able to go out to
work, and since we are basically starting over again in the area we did a bunch
of contacting. Like almost the entire week contacting. We did find some
interesting nice people and some other not so nice people but hey its all good.
We also went on some visits with Hermano Sanchez and Brenda to visit some of the
less active members in the ward and to share a quick message. We also ate some
super rico hot dogs with them! Such an awesome family. This week we also worked
with this one dude named Miguel. He is a friend of a member in the ward and he
really likes the church, he even came this week dressed up in a white shirt and
tie.
This past week was also pretty cool to see how the Holy
Ghost works. So one of our investigadores has been out of town and dealing with
the death of a loved one and we haven’t been able to contact her for awhile. So
yesterday we were eating with a family and the hermana told us that she had a
feeling this past week to send a message to Perla, something brief just to say
that she was thinking about here. Well Perla then said that it made her day and
that she wants the sisters from the church to visit her and talk with her and
just help her through this moment. It was so awesome to see the Holy Ghost work
in the lives of others!
well just wanna end this letter with a really good scripture
that I was thinking about this week. Its Ether 12:27 "And if men
come unto me I will show unto them their weakness. I give unto men weakness
that they may be humble; and my grace is sufficient for all men that humble
themselves before me; for if they humble themselves before me, and have faith
in me, then will I make weak things become strong unto them."
sometimes it might seem as tho we have a bunch of
weaknessess in our life that it might seem to hard to handle but I know that if
you turn to the Lord for help he will make those weak things into strenghts. I
have seen it so many times in my own life and it the life of other, especially
here in the mission!
well i got to go back out to serve
les extraño y les amo!!!
con amor
