This
was the best week of this change for Elder Yohari and I so far! There
were a lot of great things that happened. First, I'll start with the
conference we had with Elder Robbins and Elder Uceda...
On
Friday we had a combined conference with the Lima East mission to
listen to Elder Robbins from the presidency of the quorum of the 70 and
Elder Uceda and his wife, their in the presidency of the area. Elder
Robbins was awesome! He let us ask him questions and get involved in his
training like Elder Bednar did back in August and we learned a ton! He
spoke about why it is so important to love your companions and how the
mission is like a miniature world. Usually when a general authority
comes they speak about the Doctrine of Christ or something, so it kind
of threw me off guard when he began to talk about that. But it was one of
the best training's that I've been in. He taught us that the mission is
the best "university" to develop Christlike attributes; like patience,
charity, and many more. What we learned from the training led Elder
Yohari and I to have a very successful week.
We
also had an awesome miracle happen to us this week! On Saturday night
at 8:00 pm our appointment failed us, as well as our plan B, and there
wasn't anyone else nearby to contact or visit, so we just started walking
down a street that we had never contacted before. We passed by one lady
and we felt that we should go talk to her, so we did. As we started
talking to her and getting to know her, she took a lot of interest in
the Restoration and let us share it with her. We shared it, invited her
to church, and and Sunday she came! Her name is Veronica and has 3
little kids, they are 6,4, and 2 years old. Her 6 year old is autistic. She has been really sad lately because she hasn't been able to find
support for her son. The ward received her really well on Sunday and
she is really excited to keep learning more. She was definitely an answer
to our prayers.
Anyways, it was a good week and I know that this week will be even better! Que tengan todos una buena semana!
