Mexican Independence day! |
Hola Todos!!
Miracle of the week:
Before church this week we decided we were going to walk pretty much our whole area to invite the people we are teaching to come to church with us. As we were walking to the church, a member stopped to ask us if we wanted a ride. We declined because he was alone in his car (we can´t be in a car alone with a man). There was another man who saw the situation and approached us and told us he admired us for not accepting the ride. We started talking and it turns out he was a Jehova´s Witness who hadn´t been able to go to church in 8 years.
We started explaining that we´re missionaries and as missionaries we share a message of Jesus Christ and invite people to come unto Him. He asked us where we were going and we told him to church and he asked us if he could come with. We walked to church and in Sacrament meeting he cried twice and again in the gospel doctrine class when He was handed the scriptures. He was overwhelmed by the spirit and excitedly told us he was going to go every single week. He does not live in our area, but we are excited to see his progress as our companions visit and teach him.
The gospel is true. I believe it. I know it. I feel it in every fiber of my being. I love my Savior and am so incredibly grateful for the time I have had here in Juarez and would not trade it for anything.
Love you all and hope you have a fantastic week!
