Wow
these two weeks have flown by so fast! We are working super hard here
and seeing some awesome results! I am loving it! We found a really cool
family, the family Maldonado!
They are like 4 families in one! They are super excited to go to church
and we are excited to help them keep going strong! Also one of our
families of converts, the family Lopez, this last week went to stake
conference and loved it. They had to drive like
an hour to get there and it was super awesome and I am so happy for
them! Also the family Carrera left. They moved to Zacatecas with the
family of the mom. They left because the dad was treating them unfairly
and they definitely deserve better. It’s a good
thing though because now the mom can get baptised because here she
wasn’t married and her boyfriend didn’t want to get married. They called
us this last week and they are doing super great. They are excited to
keep going to church.
This
week I had to give a talk on the spot. The bishop asked me like 5
minutes before it was time to go up... haha that was a first, but it
turned out really good. I talked
about the missionary work and how everyone can be a missionary. In the
way that we live we can be a light to so many people around us. Like it
teaches us in chapter 14 of Mathew, we are called to be a light unto
everyone! I invited everyone to share the gospel
with everyone they know. If we don’t directly talk to them about it, we
can at least set a good example for them.
I have lots of pictures to send, but I haven’t been able to send them yet. One of these weeks I’ll get them to you guys!
I am loving it here in Matamoros and I hope you guys are all doing super great!
