Tengo una pregunta para todos los que han
servido una misión, Is 1000 contacts for a zone of 8 companionships in a
week a lofty goal? for my mission I would say it's a lot but I only
know my mission and I don't know very much about others but that is the
goal that our zone leaders put and... we are trying to achieve it :)
April
So
that's a little bit about what's going on in the zone... We had a
conference and president talked about setting goals and seeing with the
eye of faith and not trusting on our own knowledge or our own "reality"
you could say and that we have to trust in the Lord and make goals that
might be impossible for us by ourselves but with the Lord we can achieve... It is kinda hard but that's what we are going to do and it's
gonna be great! :)
This week we had 2 people
come to church with us, R_ and M_ .
A short story about R_. We
wanted to change his baptism date from the 9th of May to the 2nd so he
could get baptized sooner and so we commented something about that to
him and he was thinking about it but didn't confirm nor deny if we could
and so the next time we went he says to us " I don't know if we can
change the date to the 2nd because.... I already invited a lot of my
friends and stuff, do we have to change it?" We told him we didn't have
to... wow he is so ready!!!! He has already invited people to his baptism! It's great :) we are going to keep
working with him.
With L_... she got a job so now we haven't even been able
to talk to her for a whole week and wasn't able to go to church... we
will do what we can to get her back on track and help her get back to
going to church and listening to the Restored Gospel and all the stuff
that will help her eternally.
With M_ and her
kids, well D_ got a new job as well and so he couldn't go to church
but M_ is excited about the church again. Like twice she has tried to
tell us that she doesn't want to keep listening to us an that she is
going to go to the church that she was going to before but she knows the church is true. She just gets
negative feed back from outside sources but with a short lesson and the
testimony of a great member and feeling the Spirit she gets back on
track :) So all is just fine, we have just had some rough moments with
her but then it is all good :)
That's just a
little bit about this week :) The Church is true! I know that Christ
is our Savior and that if we trust in him we can do all things the Lord
requires. By the way, I read Doctrine and Covenants all the way
through for the first time in Spanish :) I know that D
and C is true and it is just another evidence that Joseph Smith was a
true modern prophet! I hope you are all great and that you can have
an amazing week this week and share the Gospel with someone new :)
