NEW CHANGE NEW LIFE



¡Hola! Well actually this week not alot changed this week. Things kinda have stayed the same. The change ended but I’m with my comp for another change. This week I have a lot of experience that I would love to share. First off, with Octavio, so this week we went to visit him at his house and when we got there, his wife lead us out to the balcony where he was seated. We began to talk and he began to open up to me and tell me everything all of his worries, all of his fears, and all of the pains of having left his mom to live here in the city. About his desires to be a good father and how he feels so lost in doing it. I shared with him the experiences of my life, the things I know the prophets have said in our days all that I could to help him. I felt such a strong bind form between us. I feel and developed a strong love for him and his family. This was Friday and Saturday was the call for changes. As we walked away that Friday night, I felt a confirmation in my heart that if I stay here in this sector I stay for him. I stay cause the lord has a work for me to do with him. This is actually only the second time that I have felt that in all my mission. The other time was when I was in Los Robles almost a year ago now. I love that man and his family. 

Sadly this week Hermano amigo had a fall back into alcohol. We went to visit him a few times this week and he was drunk, so we have sadly taken a few steps back with him. His wife still wants to progress, but her progress is severely halted by him when he is drunk. The good thing is that he knows it’s wrong. He just doesn’t just have the will power to let it go yet. 

Everyone else is kinda the same today we had the chance to go to the temple it was super amazing. Every time I go to the house of the lord I come out feeling strong and more able to do the work. I hope you all take advantage of the temple and I hope you are all preparing for general conference that is coming up. I’m super excited for it.

con mucho amor
