Heyy, how's it going?
This week, we were able to find someone new! He gave us his phone number incorrectly and still hasn't given us his real one, so that's maybe not very good. But, he was interested in coming to church and willing to begin preparing to be baptized, which is basically what we're looking for.
He didn't make it to church on Sunday, unfortunately, but we had a good lesson on Saturday. We knocked his door, and he told us he wasn't up to talking with us and Sunday would be better. But as we were walking away, he invited us back to come in and eat because he felt bad for sending us away, haha. We got to teach a bit about the First Vision and the Book of Mormon.
Somehow, there's a Filipino sister in the Spanish ward and she signed up to feed us this week. She was super excited about it. As she put it, she wanted to give us a 'cultural lesson' and we expirienced what she called a 'Boodle Fight'. There's history to why it is called that, but it's basically putting all the food in the middle of the table on huge leaves and eating with your hands. It was great.
Something I liked from studying this week was from Elder Eyring's talk from the latest conference, 'Proved and Strengthened in Christ'.
He said, "Proving moments are not evidence that the Lord has abandoned you. Rather, they are evidence that He loves you enough to refine and strengthen you."
In a moment of personal trial, he felt as though the Lord was telling him, “I am proving you, but I am also with you.”
We all expirience moments of probation, which requires difficulty. But we do have the promise that the Lord will be with us if we trust in Him.
Love you guys!
Que Dios me los cuide 🇵🇷💖
