Esta semana ha sido muy buena! We got a lot of good work done! Wednesday I finished El Libro de Mormon en Espanol! Started on El Nuevo Testamento and have been reading a chapter a night!
On Wednesday we went up to Ducor again and Terrabella and found a solid investigator out in Ducor named Felipe Chavez! Shared the restoration, beared our testimony, then invited him to be baptized and he said "Amen! Lets do it Hermanos!"! We've also found another lady to teach out in Woodville and one here in Porterville so we've been teaching all over! We also have been working a lot to get to know all the members of the branch better and found two really good part member families to work with! Lot's of good stuff happening here!
Last Monday we went up on a hike and I got to do some fun flips and taught Elder Cragun how to do a sideflip! We got some sweet photos!
In my studies this week I've been reading two really good talks about missionary work along with my study in the Book of Mormon! I really liked the reference used in one of the talks to 1 Samuel 16:7 a solid scripture mastery I learned back in my seminary days 7 But the Lord said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him: for the Lord seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the Lord looketh on the heart.
We often look at others and say "I don't think they are ready for the gospel" or "maybe they'll be ready someday" but in reality we are doing what the lord councils us not to do! If we don't invite them then we are making this eternal decision for them! "Open you mouth and it shall be filled" we must invite without fear!
Have a solid week!
Con Amor,
Elder Houssian
