¡Hola!
Sorry I didn't write last week! Anyway, the most important things that
happened last week and this week are these:
Last week we had a Mini-CCM for all the Ward Councils in our Stake and
Presidente Vásquez was there to talk to and train them. It was a cool experience
and our ward councils actually learned and left with the determination to hasten
the work.
Last p-day our half of the mission got to go bowling!
This week I was once again able to witness and experience the power of the
Priesthood. Élder Ortega was sick and had a fever and a bad headache. He asked
me for a blessing and I gave it to him and the next morning he was fine. I know
that as we worthily exercise the power that He has given us we literally become
His hands and through our faith He is able to work miracles in our lives.
One of our investigators Oscar Reyes was really depressed and lonely
because his girlfriend had left him for another guy. As we visited him and
taught him the Gospel we were able to promise him that if he would diligently
read, pray, and attend church he would be able to know the truth, all of his
righteous desires would come to pass, and everything would be all right. He
decided to put it to the test and it came true. The other guy that his
girlfriend went with started treating her badly and she decided to come back.
While she was with the other guy he took her phone away so she couldn't talk to
anyone and last week Sunday for the first time in four months she had her phone
and Oscar was able to talk to her on his way to church. When he got to church he
was so happy. On Saturday she finally came and yesterday both of them came to
church even though she's gone to another church! I know that as we teach both of
them the Gospel they'll be able to repent and desire to get married and baptized
and be sealed for all eternity.
¡Levántate! ¡Podemos hacerlo ahora!
Love,
Elder San Diego
