Espero que tuvieron un bueno Pascua!!!!
This last week was a great
week of learning, and helping people come unto Christ through his
everlasting Gospel here on earth. I've been learning and growing so
much in the knowledge that Christ is our Savior, and only through his
the doctrine of his Gospel, which is faith in Him, Repenting of your
sins, Baptism by those who hold the Priesthood keys to authorize it,
receiving the Gift of the Holy Ghost, and enduring to the end. I know
without a doubt that only by living this doctrine that he gave us can we
be saved throughout all eternity with those that we love by our side. I
wish to give my personal testimony that only by living this gospel and
Doctrine of Christ can we truly find happiness in this life, and even
better yet, in the eternities. This doctrine isn't just for those who
haven´t been baptized in the Church of Jesus Christ, its the same for
all saints of His church. If you are not living this doctrine, I invite
you to study this doctrine, to live this doctrine, and as a
representative of Jesus Christ, I promise you that you will find the
blessing of heaven open ever wider unto you, and you will find true
happiness. I promise you, it is possible to begin a New Life, in Jesus
Christ, no matter where you are, or how far off the path you feel you
are, it is possible. I testify of these things to you, in the Name of
Jesus Christ, Amen.
So I started off this
week with getting a district activity started to help us feel more
united in our district! Guess what we did? We made Tortillas and
Burritos!!!!!!! The Hermanas had a great time, and I can officially say
I know how to make tortillas now, which has always eluded me.... (I
also learned how to make crepes, YUM!!!)
Life is a whole lot
more busy now, but also a whole lot more spiritual! We're running around,
giving interviews for people who wish to be baptized, helping people to
really understand what baptism is, and we're seeing a lot of fruits
coming out of all of this! We had a total of 3 baptisms this past week,
and well, we'll see how many this next week, but everything is going
awesome! We're always finding new people, always teaching the Gospel of
Repentance, and I can really see peoples lives going for the better!
A
lot of people were gone this past week in vacations, and so we're going
to have a lot more lessons this week than the last one, (there's nothing
better than teaching with the Spirit!) Everything's going great with the
comp, haven't had any run ins with dogs for a bit! Love you guys a lot!
