Tuesday-Friday,
we girded our loins and worked like crazy. I went on splits with this
guy named David Rosales and we had tons of spiritual experiences with
our members in the Maximo! A 15 year old in our ward named Rut had a
stroke and we had to ditch mid lesson to run to her house and give her a
blessing. Keep her in your prayers!
Saturday,
my dear friend and 2nd grandpa named Denis overcame the impossible and
was baptized. I'll never forget the journey we had with him and the
testimony he shared moments after his baptism. He began by telling the
story of how we met. We were walking, fast like always, and he saw us
from the distance. He had the natural instinct to go inside to avoid us,
but something made him stay. Of course, we contacted the man while he
was sweeping his porch! He was friendly and invited us back! Slowly but
surely, as he read the Book of Mormon, the Spirit whispered it was true.
He came to General Conference and through the voice of the Lord´s
servants, the Spirit whispered yet again. In a sacrament meeting talk
given by a youth, who talked about the Holy Ghost and the way he
WHISPERS made all the dots connect in the life of Denis. He was an
atheist, for the first time in his life, was giving religion a run for
its money. As he told us these experiences, tears swelled in his eyes.
He has set the way for the rest of his family to take the same steps!
Greatest feeling ever! The miracle month has almost come to a close.
Happy
Halloween to all you bagos out there. I sure do love you and appreciate
all the love you have been sending my way. Take care this week!
