Week #45

Buenas Tardes!

Great week! Time is flying by! 

We were very busy this week! Started off in the gringo area again then we had a zone temple trip the next day! Tuesday we had dinner with an investigator and our ward mission leader and then taught him the plan of Salvation! Really solid lesson! We've seen continually good progress from the families we have been teaching a one made it out to church again! We also had a big surprise, one of our investigators who we hadn't seen for 4 weeks showed up at church and stayed to watch the baptism after and loved it! 

The heat is cranking up a bit and we've been riding lot's of bikes but the work has been really solid! I also got a call from the Porterville Elders saying that two of the people we found and started teaching way out in this little town called Ducor got baptized! (First Members of the church in the whole town!). 3 transfers back in Porterville and we worked so hard but didn't see much fruit come from it, we knocked probably every door in that town and taught so many lessons and finally we see the fruits of our labor sprouting! All in the lords time and in the lords way!

My favorite scripture from this week comes from Mosiah 12:27- 27 Ye have not applied your hearts to understanding; therefore, ye have not been wise.

This is one of my favorite prophets Abinadi testifying to the wicked priests of King Noah! One of the key things I get from this scripture is that to truly understand the gospel, we must apply our heart to it! We can obtain all the knowledge we want but if it is only in our heads then it profiteth us nothing!

Have a great week mis amigos!

Con Amor,
