This week is changes again!! i don’t
even know how time goes by that fast!! My new companion is........ Hermana Hernandez!!
yep!! i just keep repeating all of my companions, and i will be back with my
mom Almost a year ago to the day we were
made companions for the first time, super sad to see sister Bonilla go,
We had 2 baptisms yesterday, and it
was pretty stressful, cause the girl that was getting baptized showed up super
duper late, without fail they’re always super stressful. But i know that we are
able to help them make covenants with God, and that he prepares those who are
ready!! She had such an awesome desire to be baptized. We baptized Mel Paz, and Maria Caal, a mom of
a less active, and she was like, i want to be baptized cause i want to change
and stay changed and not be who i was before!! our other baptism- Mel got
attacked by 2 dogs, and has huge holes in her leg from this dog biting her, and
it was huge and swollen, and black and purple, but she said she wanted to do
it, and that this wouldn’t stop her. Just shows how the lord prepares hearts!!
awesome!!
I know this is His work!!! And we can
do it in no other way than with his spirit!!! Believe that people who are being prepared to receive
the message of the Restoration will be placed in your path. God will also place
you where your good acts and words will prepare people to receive missionaries
and Church members. In all your finding efforts, pray and look for
opportunities to serve, help, and lift others. As you are serving, talk with everyone
you meet. Have the faith that you can share the restored gospel. In every way
you serve, you should do so because you love your brothers and sisters and
therefore hope, pray, and earnestly desire to teach them the restored gospel.
When people choose not to
investigate the restored gospel, your work is not wasted. Your consistent
efforts in serving and teaching as many people as you can is one way God
prepares His children to eventually receive His servants. He often reaches out
to His children through you. Even when people do not accept the opportunity to
learn the gospel, your service and words are evidence of God’s love for them
and may plant seeds that future missionaries and members of the Church will
harvest.
When people do not accept the
gospel, do not be discouraged. You have raised a warning voice. You have given
them a clear choice. Disciples of Christ feel sorrow when people choose not to
repent, but they maintain a vision of who they are and what they are doing.
They continue to diligently move forward. don't ever give up! --Preach My
Gospel, Chapter 9
