Week #62

Buenos Días!

Quite the packed week this week! Started off with some really solid lessons! Read Alma 7 with a lady we have been working with for a while and she really felt the spirit and set a baptismal date! We had Zone Conference on Wednesday and it was really Good! Learned a lot from Presidente Mackay! We then had exchanges with the assistants and district leader so I was in the gringo areas for two days!

We then went to the temple Friday with a recent convert who is moving back to Mexico! Such a cool experience! Saturday we saw a cool miracle, we have been teaching this lady and her mom but only she could come to church because her mom works. We had a really really good lessons in Mosiah 18 over baptism and invited her to invite her Mom to ask for Sundays off! We knew it'd be a bit of a long shot because it's in the harvest season but we had the Faith! When her mom got home for work that night she told her daughter that her boss out of nowhere decided to give her Saturdays and Sundays off! So they came and watched a baptism Saturday and church together Sunday! We had a solid turnout at church too! A long time less active came back and 5 others we are teaching!

My favorite scripture from the week comes from 3rd Nefi 20:13 And then shall the remnants, which shall be scattered abroad upon the face of the earth, be gathered in from the east and from the west, and from the south and from the north; and they shall be brought to the knowledge of the Lord their God, who hath redeemed them.

The gathering of Israel is fully underway! All around the world whether in foreign lands or here in the states, the children of God are being brought to the the light of the gospel! The times are here and more prophetic direction on how to gather Isarael will be given this week at General Conference! What a privilege to be serving a mission at this time!

Cuidense amigos!

Con Amor,
