We were blessed to have 12 investigators at sacrement (woot woooot). It´s awesome to see people interested in the gospel. Me and Elder Waldron have just been doing work, we are trying to get better day by day. Here it is difficult to get people to keep commitments. and Actually do a commitment right. Example we can go around knock on every door if we wanted and they would let us in and we can present the message. sure that sounds great and easy, but there is a better way. Because if we do things that way their is no trust built. It´s a very odd atmosphere for the spirit to work in because here you got two people you have never met telling you that their message is true and YOU need to pray about it to know. More then likely they won´t listen. But if you work through the members and recent converts it creats a mutual trust where you can really start to open their hears to allow the spirit to enter and testify of truth. so the key to missionary work is the members and recent converts. There is a saying that the "elect" are near the "elect". so we´ve been trying to build the members trust with us so that we can teach their friends and family about the gospel. And it´s been pretty good. Our star investigator Bruno has been gone all week. He left with his dad, but his dad got arrested and was put in Jail apparently. so sunday finally comes and we are making our rounds to go to church and we see Bruno, he told us he just got back and he is gonna get ready for church real fast and come. It´s incredible this 13 year old is like the perfect investigator. He reads every night. Knows the gospel is true. And likes church. I can´t wait to see where he goes with the gospel, he´d be a really good missionary.
This week read up on personal revelation if you can. This is the key to spiritual growth and more direction in your life. The truth is heavenly father does speak to his children. We are all diferent and have different needs, if you go looking for and desire more direction in your life he is going to give it to you. It´s an enormous blessing to have this in my life and thank everyone for all the things they do I am out of time LOVE YOU have a wonderful week
He lives
