THE CHURCH IS TRUE!

This week was great, although we didn´t leave the house much, I got to benefit from the good use of time!

First things first, our investigators are progressing so much! Sencio, Melissa and Julissa are GOLDEN. Literally the Lord has worked miracles for them to come to the knowledge of their missing piece in life...the GOSPEL! It´s incredible how the Lord works in the details of our life. Sencio prayed and felt that he should be baptized October 19th...all by himself! He´s testimony is growing each day that he continues on the path to his baptism! The bishop and him are good friends for many years and we found him. PERFECT! The twins, Melissa and Julissa, told us that if it was up to them they´d already be baptized! They are incredible, they are 17 and are so determined! They share their testimony with their mom and she´s now opening up to us...maybe she comes to church soon!

OH THE WORK IS NOT WORK, IT´S A BLESSING. I am so grateful to be able to be in the front seat of my brother´s and sister´s conversions. The key is to be exactly obedient to witness miracles, trusting in the Lord and not wanting to disappoint Him because you love Him.

My companion isn´t doing so great. Her past companions have really broken her down and has affected her vision and well being, but the Lord knows us so perfectly. I know we have been put together for a reason and I plan to revive her energy and love for this work, she´s lost her animo and has thought of returning home. NOT GONNA LET HER.

So we haven´t been able to go out and work because of her state, so I endulged in the scriptures and read 25 chapters (finishing the Book of Mosiah and starting Alma) in an afternoon and 10 the next day! I LOVE THE BOOK OF MORMON! I know that it is the word of God and that it is TRUE! I long to be like Abinadi, who stood as a witness of God even until death, and Ammon, whose love, determination and service converted a king and all his servants and continued to establish a church.

I love the inspiration and revelation that comes as we read the scriptures diligently and search them with good intent in knowing the mysterious of God for ourselves. I know that the Book of Mormon is true and that Joseph Smith was a true prophet of God. I know that through the power of God, he translated the gold plates, so that we may have Another Testament of Jesus Christ in all languages!

I know that God lives and He love you and me. I know that when we shall meet again He will welcome us home as we are obedient and follow ALL his commandments.

Thank you so much for the email every week and love and support! I LOVE YOU MORE THAN YOU IMAGINE!

Love your missionary,
