April 20, 2015

I am great! It's p-day! Our zone leaders called us in to Guapiles to have a meeting earlier and so we wasted a little of our pday which I hate! But, I'm great!
Laundry? What's laundry;) I don't do my own laundry! A member of the ward does it for me! and the ironing:) RIGHT?? I have no idea what soap she uses but its fine I guess:) Every single day there is a moment when if you're not looking you will get hit by a car. BUT, here is the amazing part. I will be walking along the side of the road, and just randomly, feel the need to turn around, OR, I will hear a faint wistle and turn around right before a car drives by! I just realized that when you said that!!
Well there isn't really alot of snakes:) Although the young men's president's dog got bit by a snake and died 10 minutes later! Good fun right??
Well President came to our Multi-Zone meeting and taught us how to plan better. I really should have listened to you about planning. It really makes all the difference in our results. Sorry for not paying attention before, but it's all just a learning process:)
Oh ya, just think of this... When Satan was in the Premortal life with us, he was cast out for rebellion, BUT, the biggest thing that he took with him, the greatest thing that he learned from Father was THE PLAN and HOW TO PLAN!!! He knows whats going to happen too, not all of course, but the basics!!
I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING YOU DO!!!!!!!!! HAVE A GREAT WEEK!!! I LOVE YOU ALWAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!<3<3<3<3<3<
3<3<3<3<3<3<<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<<3<3<3 YOUR ALWAYS IN MY PRAYERS!!!!!

April 13,2015

So Hanser was a contact in the road. He and his wife and one kid were walking in the road, and we asked them if we could pass by sometime. They agreed and so we visited them the next week. About 2 years ago he was involved with Marijuana. He hit a guy 12 times with a hammer and almost killed him. So he had a due date of paying 4,000 dollars to the people. So he obviously had the desire to change! We taught him all of the lessons, he went to conference, and Thanks to a miracle from our Heavenly Father, he sold a lot that he had and he gained the money to pay his due. So we baptized him the following Saturday!!!

I will say one thing...I am so sick of the Laziness here!! SO SICK OF IT! Every latino is slow, lazy, doesnt watn to leave with us, and only does things "Si Dios Quiere!"

I am constantly praying for chances to see the Lords Hands in the work. Actually, i was praying a couple of days ago for a chance to use my preisthood, and the weirdest thing happened. Right after my prayer, i get a call from the sisters saying to go next door to a members house. So we got, and one of the sisters(hermana cifuentes) was balling her eyes out and wanted to go home! She asked me to give her a blessing:) It was so cool! but i felt so bad for her because not 4 months earlier I was in Her position. I am so greatful for the Preisthood in our lives, the power of God!

Well, today was the day. Elder Dale my Comp and my ¨DAD¨/trainer, got changed this morning. He was called to be a Zone Leader in a place by san jose called Hereria. So right now, i am with a temporary companion named Elder Farnsworth from Moab. And yes, he is a relative of Philo T. Farnsworth. He is a good guy. We are only working until Friday then i will recieve my new companion. And Elder Tullis will be leaving on friday. So it will be Me and my best friend Elder Davis. Me, Elder Davis, and Sister Martinez will be the only ones here in guacimo.Im so excited but so scared at the same time. I have a lot of stress now. Its good fun. I am actually taking charge of things a little bit. This week was so amazing. First we had our baptisms with Gerson and Brayan. We took lots of pics for you. I baptized and confirmed Gerson and ELder Dale the same with Brayan, It was so great adn a spiritual experience. Then after they asked us what they need to do to prepare to serve a misson. We were like OH YA!! So it was a good day. Yesterday we had interviews with President. I walked in shook his hand, and the spirit just feeled the room...I felt like just all of my worries were lifted for a moment. He smiled, asked me how i was and said a prayer. Then did the interview just asking if im obediente and if im staying worthy. Then opened it up for questions. I asked him what the best thing was to do to help my investigators. He said, "Once your investigators are reading in the book of mormon, the spirit will carry the rest" He said the book of mormon will resolve all doubts and questions. I have a huge testimony of the Book of Mormon. It is the words of Christ. It is the most correct book upon the face of the earth. The keystone of the Church of Jesus Christ. Hear these words, and believe in Christ. And if you dont beleive these words, believe in christ! And if you will believe these words you will believe in Christ, because they ARE the words of Christ. (2 Nephi 33:10) This book is our way to salvation. It is what holds the entire church together. The purpose of the book of mormon is to bring others unto Christ...Just as a purpose as a missionary is to invite others to come utno Christ. The book of mormon(words of Christ) is the best missionary and missionary tool that we have the privledge of holding in our hands today. I love you all so much, thank you for everything. If you ever have any problem, stress, bad feeling, temptation, or just need to feel happy, pick up a book of mormon and start reading. Its as easy as that. They are Christs words. "Angels speak by the power of the holy ghost, wherefor they speak the WORDS OF CHRIST. Wherefor feast upon the words of christ, for the words of christ will tell ALL things which ye should do." (2 Nephi 32:3) I love you all, have an amazing week. I pray for you all everyday. Im Holding strong and becoming better. I LOVE YOU <3<3<3<3
