Week 31 -- May 11, 2020

I'm A Farmer





This was a really good week!!(:

On Tuesday, I got a new companion! His name is Elder Gregory,  he's from Roseville California, and he's pretty awesome! We've been teaching a lot of people and just having a fun time!

We have taught a lot of people this week it really has been awesome!! We were teaching this guy who has been a member for a year, but is a little less active. The spirit totally took over our lesson and we had a super powerful discussion! He kept just sitting there, quietly thinking,  and then would say something super profound, it was awesome!

Let me tell ya,  being able to go outside has been AMAZING!!!!!  I went and got a much needed haircut, and we even bought some Kebab, BLESSINGS!!!

It's been a really good week and I'm happy, I hope you all have had a great week!!(:

I just want to close with a little spiritual thought!

In "Come Follow Me" for this week, we studied the story of Abinidi. I really liked pondering about the strength we must have to stand strong in our faith,  even when we are standing alone. Abinidi was standing alone, up until his death. For all he knew, no one was listening to a word he said. But what happened? There was one person who listened. He had one "contact," Alma, and he went on to baptize thousands, and because of him, we have the second half of the Book of Mormon. My favorite part about Abinidi's story is when he basically said to king Noah, "I know God can save me, and even if he doesn't and you kill me, that too will stand as a witness against you of the truthfulness of what I say." And they killed him, now here we are 2000 years later and he was right, our lives would not be the same without his sacrifice and his unshakable faith!!

I love the Book of Mormon and I am so grateful for the faith and sacrifice of so many people!!! I know this church is true, en el nombre de Jesucristo, Amén. 

Love you all!!
