Hello!
So where you think am going? Staying, Simi Valley, Thousand Oaks, Santa Barbabra, or somewhere else?
then we had a lesson with Magaly
and we taught her the Restoration and she really liked it and thought
that this might be the true church with all of Christ teaching restored
to full form. so it was pretty solid.
Tuesday we had Zone Conference so we had a long but very spiritual day in the church. we didn't get out of the church until 7:00 pm and we got there at 9:30 am
but every moment was worth it i learned a lot and how i need to improve
my teaching skills using scriptures, defining words, and direct
commitments. it was great!
Thursday. in the morning Elder Cavazos read the
story of the ten virgins and wanted to use it that day well teaching
people. so we were knocking door and we came across a women from Mexico
named Lara who had dinner with a member the night before and she asked
of after talking about how God loves us today so he called a prophet
asked if we could say a prayer with her so we taught her how to pray and
we prayed with her. then we visited the Bribiesca's home and only the
mother was home so Elder Cavazos took the chance and shared the ten
virgins story and we talked about how we can prepare our families for
his coming. then we went to talk to Hna. Arenas about Ricardo (they are
dating) so we wanted to make sure everything was alright, but he was
there so we thought it might not be a good idea to do that at that time
so we shared a bible story of the ten virgins and talked to Ricardo
about what he can do to prepare for his baptism. and we set up a time
for his interview on Saturday, we also created a baptism program.
Friday. after weekly planning and all that fun stuff we
eat some food and headed to correlation meeting. after that finished he
followed Hna. Arenas home to meet with Ricardo and teach him the final
lesson The Law of Chasity, but we found out that they don't live
together and have set boundary for what they do and don't do, Hna Arenas
is the Best!
Saturday. the day of Ricardo's interview. so we meet him
at the church that night and Elder Carter came down from Filmore to give
that interview and all is well so were having a baptism this week (if
all goes well this week and he doesn't change his mind)
Sunday. most of church Elder Cavazos and I made sure that
everyone knew about the Baptism and made sure that the people praying
and talking knew and are planning on going as well after church we made
some tune salad sandwiches (so good) studied Spanish and went back to
work after dinner we went over to the Bribiesca's and Luis and the mom
went leaving to get some food for dinner so they asked us to come back
in 30 minutes so we said that works perfect. we headed over to see
Magaly (she wasn't home) but we saw a man talking on the phone driving
passed so we walked over to talk to him and he was just standing outside
and we started speaking to him in English and he only know a little
English but after we heard dios after we asked "do you believe in god"
we switched to Spanish and we had a great chat with him and we invited
us over on Thursday. but we got to Magaly's house and her mom opened and
we started talking to her about what we are teaching her daughter. and
she asked if we could share it with the whole family after they get back
from Mexico to visit there grandpa who is very sick and about to pass
away. so we might be getting 2 more families this week!
this week was great hope your was as well.
