BAUTISMO DE ABEL

Well everyone!! This week was a good one, sorry if everything sounds repetitive, but there are always miracles, requires us to have eyes to see and ears to hear!

This week, we set up a way to help our friend Juan quit smoking, he so badly wants his wife to join in on the lessons with him, so that way he has more support as they look for a turno por casamiento

We are starting to help our friend Juan Diaz keep progressing, to help make his way to the temple. He has a lot of support from the ward and his mom is incredibly interested in the Gospel, so we'll be working with her more this week! While he was with us, a less active member came up to us saying he wants his kids to be introduced to the Gospel, so we get to be working with him more! And Juan sees the miracles that exist in missionary work!!

Our good ol friends, the llanos rodriguez family made us a lot of food this week, as usual, and we got to celebrate the 11th birthday of Andres, and HE GETS BAPTIZED THIS NEXT SUNDAY!! HE'S SO EXCITED!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
This week was definitely a grind week, but someone that messaged me on facebook that I introduced to the Gospel in the capital of Buenos Aires told me that she had read the book of mormon, or the beginning and just had an overwhelming feeling that what's she been looking for in her life, she found it, this is the gospel of Jesus Christ. I have never been so excited!! 
THEN ON SATURDAY, OUR FRIEND ABEL GOT BAPTIZED!! He's had so many health complications, but is 17 and wants to serve a mission. Pray for him, as he goes into surgery this week! Or at least they hope it's this week (Also pray that he gets into surgery)!

This week, I've thought about the necessity of a savior. I may have already brought up this topic, but it's so important, because this is what the book of mormon testifies of, and all other aspects of the Gospel tie into the atonement of Christ, his living reality as the son of God. Because of Adam and Eve, we have all fallen into a carnal state, and state out of the presence of God. But because of Christ spiritual death can be overcome through obedience to the laws and ordinances of the gospel (Article of faith 3, thank you primary) Christ has given us everything, don't forget that, and boast in your own strength, because with him your potential is limitless!

Ama a toda persona y a toda cosa

HOPPY PASCUAS A TODOS QUE LEEN ESTA CARTA Y LOS DEMAS!!! ESPERO QUE DISFRTUARAN SU FIN DE SEMANA CON LOS PROFETAS Y APOSTOLES!!!!! This week was definitely was an interesting one, where do I start We had interviews this week, but my companion and I didn't get them, because we had to go to Glew for a stake meeting, and the Elders before us went too long. So instead we did some roleplays of the restoration of the gospel, and then the assistants drove us to Glew, where we listened to a big ol stake meeting. We then spent the night with the Glew Elders, ELDER SOSA Y ELDER BLACKHAM!!!!  We had our first english class this week, so that was exciting. I got to teach english to all the people in my district, so that's an exciting time. Let me tell ya, I do not know how to teach english. I'll do my best. Some latinos already speak a lot and others don't know a single word, so you make due. Everyone is ready to learn though! We met our friend Juan Diaz this week. He's absolut...

We put both of them on date, and both are loving the book of mormon and got permission from their parents, MIRACLES!!!! AND BOTH OF THEM CAME TO CHURCH, YEEEEEEHAAAAAWWW!!! We had zone conference, and it was powerful! Elder Thacker and I gave a training on being a 'Preach My Gospel' missionary. I loved it! Then President spoke all about the atonement, because that is our central doctrine. EVERYTHING revolves around the atonement, without it, we are lost in our fallen and mortal state.  WE HAD AN AWESOME LESSON WITH ERIC!! IT'S BEEN FOREVER, BUT BISHOP PATEL JOINED IN AND IT WAS POWERFUL. We talked about how sometimes, God only gives us what we need at the moment, and not everything can or wil...
