Arches National Park looks awesome! I'm glad you guys had such a good time. I can't believe spring break is
already past! And you guys can now say that you have been to the place on your license plates!
This week was awesome for
us, Consejo was great as always. We saw a bunch of progress in our
investigators and we had a lot of them in church yesterday! I'll
attach a picture we took.
Hermana Xiomara and all her kids came, as well as
Consuelo and her WHOLE FAMILY, including the guy who took us to mass! We were super happy! It was the first time that the whole
family had come to church together. It was also ward conference, so the bishop and
the stake president both spoke. The spirit was felt!
We
also felt super guided to go to this guy's house in a part of our area
where we had never really worked that much. His name is Freddy, We
started teaching him and he said he didn't want to join any church
because the faith of the people in churches isn't really faith. That
no one who goes to church would be willing to die for what they believe
in. We shared Doctrine & Covenants section 135 with
him, the martyrdom of Joseph and Hyrum Smith. The spirit was very strong and I
was able to tell him about the time our family stood in that very
room. How I saw the holes in the wall where the bullets entered. How I
have felt the spirit of Joseph Smith's testimony that he sealed with his blood. And
how the church was restored! He said he would pray about it, so we´ll
see what happens when we go back!
Well that
was pretty much our week! On Wednesday we have changes. I will probably
stay here in this area, but I might get a new companion! I'll let you
know next Monday!
Love you all,
-Elder Smith
