Another great week in
Tihuatlan! This week we worked super hard and found A TON of new people
to meet with. It is incredible how receptive and open the people here
are to listening to our message and its been such a blessing to be here
with these people. The work in Mexico is truly growing so rapidly and I
couldn´t imagine being anywhere else. So much to be grateful for! Let´s
talk about this week:
Earlier this week had
splits with the District Leader where one of us leaves and the District
Leader takes our spot in our area. This is for training and to help
strengthen the work here. We have them every week but in the past I have
left the area and the District Leader has been companions with Elder
Almonte in Tihuatlan. But this time Elder Almonte left, meaning that I
would be the Senior Companion and stay with the District Leader in our
area. At first I was freaking out, because I didn´t think I was ready to
plan and lead our day, but it was honestly such a blessing and I think I
surprised myself with my ability to lead and serve. It is incredible how
much the Lord has blessed me here with confidence and with the
language. I can't imagine doing it without Him.
We
have a couple people really progressing in the the gospel and we are
hoping to keep them centered and progressing in our messages. We have
been having troubles with the situation with the Triplets, and we have
been praying diligently and having a lot of faith. I will definitely
make sure to give updates on the progress of our investigators because
it makes me so happy to be able to see their growth. Theres no better
feeling than the feeling of bringing others the gospel that has blessed
my life for so long.
I don´t have a ton to say
this week so the classic thing to do is to bear my testimony!! I know
this church is true, and I know that Russell M. Nelson is truly leading
it on the earth today. I know the Joseph Smith restored the true church
on the earth as well as translated the Book of Mormon by the gift and
power of God. I know the Book of Mormon to be the word of God and the
biggest blessing in my life. There is power in this book and in this
gospel that cannot come from any other source than from our Heavenly
Father. Have doubts about the church or are curious about the gospel?
Read this book! Feeling down, stressed, anxious, burnt-out, inadequate,
lost? Read this book!! That is my message and that is what I am
preaching every single day and I say these things in the name of Jesus
Christ, Amen!
Love you all! I have pictures this week!
