CONFERENCE WEEK



¡Hola! Well how was that for an amazing weekend? I loved it with all my heart. I know for sure that this weekend we were truly instructed by the lord. I know that those men that have been called of god are true men of god. their words are the words of god. I believe in them with all my heart. I received a lot of personal revelation as I watched conference but I am finding that as I am passing over my notes again and studying them, that the lord does not finish revealing things when the prophet closes conference. I feel as though we have only touched the surface of the wealth of revelation and truth that is in these sessions. I feel the lord guiding my studies of these talks to see how I can improve and I know he will guide all of us if we seek it.

Other than that, it was a good week. This week I would like to mention a great family that we have started to teach. They have a great story.  The ´´aunt, ´´ so to speak, is named Karina and she and her pareja are with three kids Luis, Camilla, and Deni 13, 10 and, 6 respectively. So the reason I call Karina the ´´aunt´´ because she has no family relations to these children. The children were abandoned by their mother at a young age and a year later the father became a drug addict. He asked Karina to care for the children. She is caring for them and loves them like a mother. We met her doing contacts and she asked us to come back and give a lesson to the children. As we have had some lesions, she is pushing the children to learn more and in turn learning more herself. we can tell she wants this gospel and foundation for the children. We are hoping with time we can get them all fully involved. Right now we just lack the pareja but, we are hoping and praying.

They are really the ones who for now are progressing well for us. We have more that we are hoping will catch a bit of this spark to learn more. I love this gospel with all my heart and soul. I know that it is true. I love the savior. I love my heavenly father who is eternally patient with all of us. No matter how far we have fallen how many time we have fallen we can get back up.- never on our own but with him we can rise higher than ever before. Take his hand and he puts it out to us. He is waiting with tears in his eyes for the day that we put aside our desires and dreams and follows him.
This church is true there is no doubt in my mind.
