Hola mi familia!
This week we've been focused on Yesenia and angel.
Yesenia has been reading in the Book of Mormon and it is connecting perfectly
to her life. Every time she has a question about her life, we would just have
to read a few more verses and it would be answered. Using the Book of Mormon
has made teaching so much easier and brings the spirit so much more than just
flat out teaching ever could. As of right now she feels content with the church
she is in, but also is reading and praying to know if it's true. She's
progressing slowly but surely.
Angel has really done a 180 on how humble he is. Before
he wouldn't even listen, and now he is participating in lessons on his own
choice and asking questions. It really helps that his wife is a member that really
wants him to get baptized, so she's an amazing influence on him. The work
really is so much easier when they already have a connection into the church.
We are still working with our less active Daniel. He is
so awesome, and we keep getting referrals from him. He owns his painting
business so he has a bunch of employees. So every time we go over there on the
weekend him and all his buddies are having a BBQ. The best part is all of them
are from Honduras. So I can talk to them a little bit about their country
because of Emilie, but not much. And a good icebreaker for them is bringing up
the 6-0 loss of Honduras to USA. Then I invite them to our church soccer league
and ask them if they are going to let the gringos win again. It's a lot of fun,
haha. But a few of them are actually showing interest in the church, so we are
going to start teaching them soon.
Other than that I really can't think of anything exciting
happening this week, like missionary work happened but it's all just tracting
and sharing the Easter initiative with everyone.
I've been working hard this week to continue praying
always with real intent and trying to apply all the things that I learned last
week from conference. One thing that has really helped with the praying is
waiting in the morning until after exercising so I'm awake and then doing it as
one of the first things I do when I get home at night.
That has helped a ton, but I'm still far from perfect.
Love you all and happy Easter!
