Wow! What a week! - June 2

Wow what a great week! Really it was such a great week filled with so much of the spirit!! This week we had stake conference and we had the privilege to listen to Elder Spannaus of the 70!! It was so good!! Really so so so good.  I learned so much and I have so much more of a fire to get out in the "field" and work! Really we are so blessed to has so many wonderful leaders of the church that are called of God and that we can listen to them and they can speak the word of God! Also we listened to our president and it was so good he talked about the privilege that we have to have the Book of Mormon in our hands! Really and it was so good! We have the word of God another witness of Jesus Christ! Another book that we can learn of God! It doesn't mean that it replaces the bible it is just a complement of the bible! I have learned here in the mission that really we need both of them to be able to really understand the doctrine of Christ! really we do have this privilege!! so are we using this privilege or it just sitting on the table looking pretty?? You guys!! You don't understand what we have! We have the light that so many people are looking for! We have the other witness that Jesus is the Christ, we have the fullness of the Gospel!!!! We need to share it with everyone! Really ... words can't say enough!! Really te amo este libro!! I LOVE THIS BOOK!! It has changed my life! I regret everyday before my mission that I didn't read it! And I know that I will never go another day without reading it!! Also Elder Spannaus talked about the power of repentance and that we are so blessed to be able to feel free of a load that we possibly have had on our backs for years! He told us about a story when he was serving the mission that he had a intravista with a sister that has had a sin really big and that the light that was in her eyes after she was able to feel this load taken off of her shoulders that had been there for over 50 years and that before she never knew that she could ever have been forgiven.. can you imagine that... sometimes I think that we take it lightly - also we have this wonderful knowledge and what are we doing with it.. are we sharing the wonderful joy that we have.. or is this also sitting on the table... sorry if this card is a little strait forward... but I can't contain it!! Haha the blessings that I have are HUGE and I want everyone to be able to feel this love!! I invite all of you to take some time and really think about how you can share the message.. how you can make a difference... how you can help the people of the world know this wonderful message that we have!! GO OUT AND SHARE IT!"!!!!

Well i will be truthful with you all... haha working in the city is really hard because we don't have many investigators but we are looking and looking!! ...and looking a little bit more! But this week we found one!! And she is great! We decided to look for investigators though the less actives and we felt that we would have success and really we did! Her name is Melina! She is great, she is the girlfriend of one of the members and she is going to have a baby they are working on everything so that they can get married and right now she is super interested in the church! She went to church the other week and we talked about the scriptures and after we were talking and she said there is a book that you guys have that I would like to read. We pulled out a couple of books and when we pulled out the Book of Mormon she said THAT BOOK!!! I want to know more about that book! It was a really great experience! We are blessed to have her! really and after we were talking with the mom of her boyfriend. She is a member.. the mom.. she said that she has been praying for weeks that something could touch her heart and that she would want to know more about the gospel! After she told us that we are her angels! It was really a wonderful experience!! I am excited that she is interested and hoping that their papers can be finished super fast so that they can get married and that she can be bauptized!! 

Well I hope that you all can have a good week and can really ponder on what you will do to be able to share this message with everyone!! Share the Gospel and you will not believe the blessings that you will receive!! 


Love you all so much!! Thank you so  for the support!! 

Talk with you next week!
