Hello,
Thanks for the updates about jocelyn, she sounds like she is doing amazing. I was right there in spirit with you guys and the ward during the fast, and we can see the blessings from the prayers and fasting for sure. I know she is in the best hands possible, in every sense.
This week was really great, we were able to find and work with some really quality investigators. Being the missionaries that the Lord leads to find that prepared person is such an amazing feeling, knowing that you are being an instrument in the Lord´s hands is priceless. But we cant do it alone. Like we told an investigator yesterday who felt something she had never felt before, we arent two, walking, talking with people, we are three. The Spirit is the one who does the converting, we just present the truth and let the spirit touch their hearts. Converting people yourself is really hard, and has no lasting effects, we need to have that third companion with us always. I know that we can apply that personally as members too. ¨The Holy Ghost is the power by which we are changed to become like God¨ , if we truly understand that, why would we do anything to put that presence in our lives in jepoardy? Something ive been thinking about this week…..
I hope you guys are all doing well, I understand things are a little crazy right now, but know that I love you all and that you are in my prayers. Things are great here in San Pedro, thanks for your prayers and Love!
