Oops...sorry this is a little late :)
Hey guys!
It´s been a good
week- We found out the changes last night, and I´m staying in El Bosque
as Zone Leader! Elder Galeano is leaving to train, and he´s going to a
department called Florida. He´s been an awesome companion, I´ve learned
a lot from him! I´m be with a brazilian named Elder Leite! And I
can´t believe that I´ve hit a year! Time really flys, it´s crazy.
This
past change, I´ve really been thinking about these last days that we
are in. Our mission has gone through a lot of changes while I´ve been
here this past year, and we are really doing a lot of training with
these members about the importance of sharing the gospel. It´s made me
think a lot about the covenants I´ve made as a member of the church, and
the responsibilities I have to share the gospel and serve those around
me. We´ve studied a lot as a mission the Administative manuel of the
church, and under missionary work, it explains how the missionaries are
in the wards and stakes of the world to assist the members in THEIR work
to share the gospel. That is really interesting! Before my mission I
ALWAYS thought that the members are in the wards to help the
missionaries in their work, but it is completely the opposite. So,
thinking about that responsibility, I´ve really realized how close we
are to the second coming, and how much I lack before He comes again! We
are so close, the hard times are here, and we need to step up as members
of the church and be stronger than any generation that has ever lived
to prepare the earth for His coming! hahaha I´ve really learned a lot
this past year!!
So, this week, we´ve been
working with a less active lady who´s an RM, but has made some wrong
choices. She wants to come back, but her husband isn´t a member. We went
to their house the other day, and painted a room in their house, and
really got to know the husband better. (Her name is Natalia Bojorge, and
her husband is Gonzalo.) So we did the service, and set up another time
to go back and have a charla. Something happened, and we couldn´t go
back, but they came to church this past sunday out of the blue!!!!!
SERIVE WORKS!!!! hahaha so we´re really excited, I´ll keep you posted!!
I love you all, have an Awesome week!!!
