The Holy Ghost has helped Sara, Cielo, and Jeremias a lot this week. In the beginning, as we taught them, they didn't have a big desire to read The Book of Mormon or to pray. It always made it difficult for us to try to help them progress and to be baptized. We almost stopped visiting them but my companion and I both felt that this gospel can help them and that the Lord will help them. As we passed by this past week, they all wanted to pray and read with us!! They were listening and tried to understand what we were telling them They came to church and loved it!
It was raining a lot on Saturday as we were trying to find a lady's home. We knocked a door looking for her, but found somebody else. We talked with the lady that was home and she explained all the problems in her family. She has nine kids but is now separated and doesn't live with them. She said her husband was bad to her so she had to leave. She is now married to another person. We shared with her God's love for her and the blessings of this gospel. She came to church with us and loved it. She explained that she felt included and that she wants to come again. Her name is Susanna and we will be helping her so that the Spirit can be her guide.
Two of our friends, Ever and Adaluz, are progressing. As we have been teaching them, they love the gospel. They love the Plan of Salvation and love the opportunity that we have to choose and one day if we want, live with Heavenly Father and Jesus again. It is a blessing to see that they are loving it and that they are looking to learn. We are planning them to be baptized this week. Pray for them that all will go well.
Guess what? Elder Gong will be visiting our mission on Friday! We are excited on what he will have to say! Love you! Have a great week!!!
