Miracles Part 2

Mormon 9
18 And who shall say that Jesus Christ did not do many mighty
miracles? And there were many mighty miracles wrought by the hands of
the apostles.
 
 19 And if there were miracles wrought then, why has God ceased to be
a God of miracles and yet be an unchangeable Being? And behold, I say
unto you he changeth not; if so he would cease to be God; and he
ceaseth not to be God, and is a God of miracles.
 
 20 And the reason why he ceaseth to do miracles among the children of
men is because that they dwindle in unbelief, and depart from the
right way, and know not the God in whom they should trust.
 
This week has been another incredible week of miracles! We were 1
lesson away from reaching 50 lessons this week!! And we were blessed
with another miracle... 12 investigators attended church yesterday.
 
God does not cease to work miracles among those of his children who do
not loose faith in him, clearly those who we are working with right
now have been able to develop faith, and the faith produces a fruit
which is repentance, in preparation to receive baptism, and the gift
of the Holy Ghost, to guide them to endure to the end. Sounds like our
missionary purpose!
 
Although we had success in many areas, we had difficulties in finding
new investigators this week. Up until Friday we had only found 1, but
by the end of the week we had found 9! I’m grateful we decided to have
our divisions with our sisters in Villa Hidalgo. They too were
suffering from not finding in investigators, but I feel like the
divisions gave them and us another boost of energy and another way of
working to reach our goals. :)
 
Running and running always :)

MILAGROS!!!

Well well, what can I say? This week we decided to up our goals, and

to be honest, it was a harder weeks to reach or goals, no obstante, we

were able to reach the ones we boosted up, and by the faith we showed

the Lord blessed us in a way we hadn’t imagined... Sunday...

 

We had 9 investigators come to church and 13 less actives!! I have

never had so many investigators at church at one time, usually its

like 4 here in Santiago, and less in Vallarta. The people here are so

much more humble. :)

 

I know that all we do is guided by the Lord, because this is His work,

to bring people to the knowledge that his authority is here on the

Earth again to give us the hope we need, and to be able to exercise

our faith.

 

This Saturday we were going to eat with a sister when she called us 5

minutes before arriving to tell us that her neighbours(4 different

ladies who are our investigators) had remembered when we made the

appointment had mentioned that we were going to eat with the sister

and in return invited us all to come eat with them.. hope that made

sense! Best surprise yet! Especially because the food was fantastic :)

 

On Wednesday our investigator told us that she knew that the Book of

Mormon only spoke the truth! She didn’t even know that she was baring

testimony to us! She is the mom in the picture with the family where

I’m dressed up as a Mexican. So great! Made my day.

 

Honestly a golden week!

 

Tata for now :)

Jajaja

If all goes well they will be baptized on the 24^th of October, right before I come home :)

LAS FAMILIAS PUEDEN SER ETERNAS!!! Such a wonderful family!

It was already pooring hard, but we took it to another level!

Cute right? Ni modo

Finally it starts to rain in Santiago.. it didn’t rain in May and June and August when it usually does

more with airam <3 must be love

Well well well. We recieved our transfers today, but Hna Zepeda and I
are still together for my last 6 weeks! I was praying that I wouldn’t
have another companion. Hna Zepeda is incredible, she always teaching
according to the needs of others and is great at listening to others,
and the Spirit. I have definitely learned lots from her, teaching
wise, as long a personal things that I have needed to tweek :)
 
So this was another incredible week! We are honestly just killing it!
Okay the Lord has his work cut out for us, and we just follow the
spirit! But honestly, it has been a great past 6 weeks!
 
Well good things are coming to pass. This week one of our
investigators had mentioned that she wanted to start up her own
sandwich stand so that she is her own boss and doesn’t have to work on
Sundays! Her and 2 of her children are preparing to be baptized next
month. Also we are just finding lots of families, or couples to teach
which is super awesome and makes it so their future kids can grow up
being taught Christ like attribute and good values, living in a home
where the love of Christ can be felt because they have been able to
receive the promise of the constant companionship of the holy ghost.
 
August was a great month for us, and October from how it looks now,
will be pretty fruitful as well. I LOVE BEING A MISSIONARY!
 
Also yesterday we witness (by satellite) the rededication of the
Mexico city temple, which was super cool and awesome. Elder Holland
spoke!! And Elder Eyring directed the reunion.
 
Well that is about all for now! Here are some pictures from the last
couple of weeks, and from today where we went to los corchos to eat
with our favourite family and our convert Guadalupe <3

The Heavens have been opened once more!

HOLA mi querida familia!
 
This week was just incredible! Starting off with a family home evening
where we went around with a family saying why we loved every person in
the room, someone was put on the spotlight to receive all the glory.
It was so sweet and the love was felt, along with the Spirit.
 
Then the next day we had another family home evening, one girl chocked
on corn of the cob that we ate after and almost died, that was
interesting, we laughed WITH her on our way back home. But again the
family home evening went great, this time it was with 2 families and a
set of brother that we are teaching. It was really cool because we
agreed that we would teach, if the family would plan a game. The game
she picked was perfect and centered on the spirit. 3 were chosen to be
blind folded and had to follow the voices of Hna Zepeda and I. It was
such a great idea, and hadn’t even thought about it myself!
 
Wednesday I went to Tepic to go to the hospital... only because I have
a crazy rash from the humidity and heat, and that my pores are so
small that they cant sweat everything out. Oh esta todo bien ;)
 
Friday I went back to Tepic for our divisions with the sisters there. I
loved working with the other sisters to see how they teach, and to
learn different ideas to teach and what not. Helps me to gain my
testimony and I listen to the challenges that they face, along with
those they teach.
 
Saturday was a great day! And the reason why the heaven have been
opened again! Another Baptism. Hermana Candelaria was received into
las aguas del bautismo. An Elder and I shared the Restoration while we
waited for her and one of the Elder’s investigators who got baptized
get changed. I loved that I got the part to share the restoration
through Joseph Smith. I love that we share this message everyday, but
something was more special about this time. I remember getting started
on this part of the message, and as I started to speak, the room got
quiet, and my voice was softened, and the Spirit entered the room,
completely undeniable to all that it was there testifying of the
truthfulness of the words that he had put into my mouth.
 
I know that what I am doing is the most important work there is over
the Earth, that Joseph Smith was a prophet, because the spirit has
made known unto me every single day of my mission that it is true,
along with the pure evidence of the Book of Mormon, and I know that
the Spirit will continue to keep this firm testimony as I strive to
study the scriptures diligently and with fervent prayer.
May our living God continue to guide us with modern day revelation to
guide our lives and our families.
