Dear FAMILY and FRIENDS,
Just another BEAUTIFUL week in the Incredibly Gorgeous Hot Dominican Republic Island!
News Report from AZUA: I love this place and the PEOPLE are amazing and the LORD´s work is HASTENING on like NEVER before!
The Church is fairly new in the DR, so it´s so great to be part of this wonder time in the Lord´s Work! Azua...the city I´m in now is soon going to be a stake, so we´ve been praying lots for families and it´s amazing TRULY how the LORD has prepared families here in AZUA. We sure do need more families. This week we found 2 new families and we´re baptizing 1 in 3 weeks!!
AN ENTIRE FAMILY!!!!
They are so wonderful and it´s so great to see the beginning til their baptism because you truly see the change they make in their lives and the faith and willingness that grows immensely and rapidly as they come to know the truth of this GOSPEL! This church is true because no matter where you go in the world it´s the exact same, the only thing that changes is the language!!!
I focused a lot on PRAYER this week...
¨Therefore ye must always pray unto the Father in my name;
And whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name, which is right, believing that ye shall receive, behold it shall be given unto you.¨
(3 Nephi 18:19-20)
This scripture was probably the most used this week! Prayer is such an amazing priviledge that is looked over much more often than I thought! and it is so important in our constant daily conversion!
Nadie puede saber las verdades espirituales sin la ORACION! - Preah My Gospel
(translation: ¨No one can know of spiritual truths without prayer¨...that´s a pretty powerful statement...I´ll let you ponder on that!)
That´s this week in a nutshell...
Love,
Hermana Fernandez
