The Christ Child Dec 2, 2019

It was an eventful week.
We sang Christmas carols for a hospital as a zone
We got locked in the pension and out of the pension in the same day.
We helped las Sisters in güemes with their ward activity
In our leadership council we had a video chat with an elder from the area 70
We did divisiones with the Elders from Independencia
We did divisiones with the Elders from Portezuelo
I had some sweet diarrhea

I had lots of opportunities this week to feel the spirit, and there
were times where I could follow the promptings pretty easily, and
others where not so much. But more than anything ive learned how we
need to always be striving to have the Holy Ghost present. It is the
greatest gift we can receive in this life.

We had a cool experience with a person we are teaching. We watched the
new video "The Christ Child" and after shared our testimonies of the
savior. The video invited the spirit in such a way that when she knelt
to pray about baptism, she started to cry.

This time of year is pretty amazing, and I invite you all to check out

Jesus Christ is our Savior and Redeemer.

The Holy Ghost Nov 25, 2019

So a lot happened this week but more than anything, my testimony of the power of the Holy ghost was strengthened. We have been teaching this lady named Elizebeth. Well she came to church this Sunday and she offered to say the last prayer in her class and started to cry. Elder pekins and I saw it from a distance and he gave me a fat hug haha we were so happy for her. She felt the spirit in that moment and later shared with us how she received an answer that the Book of Mormon is true. After a lesson with her she asked, "so when can we put a date for my baptism?" We were amazed! That's normally something we invite the people to do, but I guess the spirit beat us to it. And that's how it should be I guess, because conversion comes through the Holy Ghost. Also shout out to my companion for always being intune with the spirit. One night we were looking for a family, couldn't find them, and so we asked people if they knew anyone we could visit that needed a mes

Already Two Weeks!

Que Pasa Calabazas! I cant believe its been two weeks here. Ever since the first day time has flown by! The language was coming so quickly and I learned so much in the first week, I just need to make sure that I keep learning and dont get stagnant. Also things have gotten into a rythm here so its jsut been a blur!  On thursday, it was our last lesson with daniela and it went really well. I feel like we followed the spirit and were able to answer her questions about baptism! Friday We prepared for our next people we are teaching, Ignasio and Salma! we also did a service project during gym time and that was awsome!  Saturday, We had our first lesson with ignasio and we learned alot! we kinda overwhelmed him with info when we should have realized that he had a limited knowledge of God. It was still great though and we testified of what we knew to be true. Sunday was great and we learned a lot about aligning our will with the will of God. Also Our district leader was appoint

Howzit mis amigos This week my new companion Elder Sperry got here and he's super awesome. This week we've been showing him some of the stuff we do in our assignment and Im super excited for these next 12 weeks to work with him and serve the missionaries in this mission. Last week hermano Gaspar was baptized! He was at the church before we were and it was so cool to see him take this step of faith and follow the Savior by being baptized. There's always a special spirit manifested in ordinances like baptism, and afterwards he thanked us again for helping him reach this point in his life. He asked me to confirm him and give him the Holy Ghost. It was the first time I had ever done it in my mission, and in my life, because we always had asked members to do it, but I was grateful he thought of me and it was an experience I will never forget. I know that God's priesthood has been restored to the earth and its such a blessing to act in the name of Christ. Speaking of spiritua
