We went to the Visitor's Center
again last night with Rocio, Uriel and their mom and another family in
the ward. It was really good! Rocio and Uriel are loving primary and
young women's but we still haven't gotten their mom to church. She has
been less active for lots and lots of years. But she really liked the visitor's center
and hopefully will go this week and let her kids get baptized :)
Friday
we had a really good lessons with Jose Luis! He has been investigating
since August and has gone to church several times. He just hasn't gotten
baptized because he doesn't want to live the law of chastity. He's 61.
yeah. But President Anaya went with us to the lesson and it went really
really well. He is a good guy and knows the church is true. Hoping that
he will chose to live the commandments because he will be blessed so
much. He is sad because his wife died 5 years ago and he really misses
her. President promised him that she had already accepted the missionary
discussions in the spirit world and is waiting for him to help her
with the ordinances. It would be so cool if they get sealed :)
We
had a family night with family Galicia and taught them how to make
chocolate chip cookies. They turned out pretty good but a little more
flat than we hoped. Probably because we are a lot higher up here. Its so
fun living with members :)
Today Hermana
Fowler and I went to visit our converts and other members in Bosques!!
Our companions wanted to go visit one of their old areas too. It was so
fun to see people we had taught and see that they are still doing well.
Being a missionary is so rewarding :)
I'm so
grateful for the time I have to serve and give my heart, might and mind
to the Lord. I know that He is guiding every step of our every day. I
know that Christ lives and loves us. I have been studying His Atonement a
lot this week and am understanding more and more the great need we all
have to go to Him and apply the Atonement in our lives so we can be
cleansed from sin. I know that the plan that Heavenly Father has for
each of us is perfect and personal. He wants us to live with Him again
and the only way is through faith in His Son, our Redeemer and friend.
Have a great week!
Hermana Rhoten
