Familia,
Thanks for your letters and your help/advice. I´ve really just had to get over it and move on.
This week we found out the transfers and we are moving people
around. My companion nor I have a change. That´s cool, cause I wanted
more time in my area. There´s a lot potencial in my area that needs to
be found and progressed. Yesterday, Eduardo recieved the priesthood and
is going to bless the sacrament the next week. He´s also helping us a
ton in our area. One of his friends went to his baptism and we have been
teaching her and she has a baptism date. Her name is Sulma. Also, he
brought about 5 other friends to church yesterday! He´s awesome and
getting prepared to go on a mission in a year. The members have also
been helping out lately. We went with members about 8 times this week to
lessons so I feel like they´re having more trust in us.
I also felt like a marriage counselor this week. We taught many
couples, some married, some not. I of them, named Miguel, broke up with
his girlfriend, who is a member just last week. We taught him about 3
weeks ago the restoration, but he wasn´t that interested. So his
girlfriend broke up with him cause she was tired of waiting for him to
become a member (it´s been about a year). Kind of harsh right? Wrong, he
humbled himself and searched us out. He has been progressing quite well
and is doing it for himself, not only to get back with her. He
seriously has humbled himself, yea, even to the dust of the earth. He
reminds me of Alma 32. Before Alma talked about faith and before the
people started to believe him, they were cast out of their synagoges and
were seriously humbled. Miguel was cast out of his love and has started
to believe and his seed is growing. Notwithstanding, blessed are those
that believe without being obligated, yea, even unto baptism.
Yea!
So that´s pretty much what has been happening in my area.
I realized that I dón´t have that much time left in the mission. I
leave the 4 of december... my whole group leaves that day because the
president wants to send us for our studies and before Christmas. That
leaves me about 4 transfers after this one. I seems so short and that I
just began my mission. I have learned a ton and I still have a ton to
learn.
