Another great
week!! I've been out for 5 months and time is flying by!! ): The work here
finally started moving forward again and we had a lot of success with the goals
we set this week! We had a lesson with Hermano Martinez this week and he prayed
out loud with us for the first time!!! His wife wasn't with us, and that's why
he did it. He has a lot of pride and is afraid to show his wife that he knows
it is all true, but we are working on that (: Then we saw him again later this
week and he told us, "You know, I was thinking. What have I got to lose by
being baptized and married in the temple? They are good things and will help me
become closer to God." That was his hint to his wife that he wants to be
baptized, haha he is so funny. But he is progressing so much and went to a
stake activity on Saturday then to church on Sunday!! They drove us to the
Saturday activity and he was so worried that we wouldn't get back to the house
on time and didn't want us to get in trouble so there may or may have not been
one time he sped on the freeway to get around a slow car and went 90
MPH.....haha maybe I shouldn't have told Mom this (: But he is a crazy 60 year
old man and I love him!!
We are also teaching another hermano
whose wife is the Young Women's leader and his stepson is Jose (the one going
on his mission). He came to church yesterday too!! Okay, one more awesome
miracle we saw this week! There is a single mom in the ward who has been
praying so hard to find people for us to teach. One night she remembered there
was a less active in our area whose husband isn't a member, but she couldn't
remember her name. She was praying so hard to remember her name and then went
to Walgreen's and found the lady! It was amazing and she called us, crying, to
tell us to go over and visit them. So a lot of miracles happened this week to
help us remember to never lose faith and continue to work hard. We will have a
lot of new investigators this next week and are so excited to be teaching more
again! (: Prayer is so real and we can literally ask our Heavenly Father
anything, and He will always answer us.
My scripture theme for this week is
Mosiah 28:3 "Now they were desirous that salvation should be declared to
every creature, for they could not bear that any human soul should perish; yea,
even the very thought that any soul should endure endless torment did cause
them to quake and tremble." Keep being good missionaries and help the Lord
find His lost sheep. They are out there and we can help them! I love you and
hope you have an amazing week!! Keep smiling<3
Love,
Hermana Moberly
