Hello every body how was your week!
Well that sounds great my week was fantastic I love it here
Anyways
so lets start with Tuesday. Tuesday Elder Cavazos taught the Gospel of
Jesus Christ to 2 different families and in 2 different ways.
First we
taught the Vera family using science and stuff so we got a bowl of
water, pepper, dish soap, and something to wipe your hands. so we got
the bowl of water and put it down and put my CTR ring in it and told one
of the kids to touch it with out getting dirty, then before they could
put their finger in the water we poured pepper in the water (pepper
floats) and they couldn't touch it with out getting dirty so we asked
Steve (the helper) to wipe his finger off and get cleansed from sin (or
pepper) and get baptized and receive the holy ghost (dish soap) so we
put dish soap on his finger and told him to touch the ring and he put
his finger in the water and the pepper all went to the side of the bowl
and he could touch the ring without getting dirty or sinning. It was
pretty good, they understand that they need baptism now.
On the other
hand we taught the Gonzales family were we talked about and alot about
baby baptisms and why they don't need it but they didn't understand that
part of it so tomorrow were going to talk about it, other then that
that lesson went great they understand that they need baptism and we
also talked about temples and marriage.
Wednesday. we found a new family of investigators! It was a
referral from a recent convert and she said that they want a blessing
for their son (Luis) so we went over to there house and meet the
Bibriesca family we talked about how we do blessing and what they are we
gave the son a blessing and talked a little about prophets and they
asked us to come back latter that week.
Thursday not a lot happened
on Thursday. I'm kidding we had a great day we did a reenactment of Samuel the
Laminite with a family, we did some more service and talked to some less
actives about going on there mission.
Friday.
we found another 2 investigators Esperanza and Roxanna. Esperanza we
talked to early that week and asked us to come back any day after 5 than
we got her address and went our way but
Friday
we were with Roxanna we have talked to her a couple times and she said
she was busy every time but this time she want time and so we taught a
quick lesson and how to pray and she said the prayer and asked us to come
next week so where going tomorrow but after the lesson we looked at our
watches and it was
5:05
and we looked up and we saw where Esperanza lived so we took 13 steps
to the door knocked and she had just finished cooking for her kids so we
shared another quick lesson with her taught her how to pray but she
didn't want to pray so we asked her if next time she will say and she
said yes got another time to come back and we prayed and left her to eat
with her kids.
Saturday. so remember the Bibriesca family well
Saturday
was the day we went back and we taught them the Restoration, they loved
it before we could invite them to church they asked where and when our
services are! So we answer there questions and talked about baptism they
said they will if they find that the church is true it was great. Then
we ran home got some service clothes on and helped destroy a roof. later
that day we were walking down the street and one of Elder Cavazos old
investigators flagged us down and told us her son had ran away we talked
about faith and we offered a prayer that her son with get home safely.
Sunday morning we got a text saying her son got back home safely! The rest of
Sunday
was great Elder Cavazos had to translate the talks from the high
counsel. We talked about the plan of salvation in gospel principles. and
of course all of the people who said they would come to church didn't.
So that was my week in a nutshell lots of fun and lots of work
