This
week was a pretty good week. This week was Brandon's birthday, which
was awesome. He is now 15 years old. He got some nunchucks and he's
learning to use them. Last Sunday we got a referral from a member, and
she said he and his family were looking for a church to go to. We went
by on Tuesday and taught about Families and temples with the restoration
of the priesthood and the gospel tied in, and he, Luis, loved it. He
said he wanted the rest of his family to also hear the message. We
taught Gabby and her mom a little about the restoration. The first time
we met Gabby's mom, she wasn't interested, but this time she was, and it
was cool to see that. For finding this week, we didn't do too well
until Sunday when we doubled what we had found through the whole week.
It was cool to see the Spirit working in us. We went by a family who
told us they wouldn't be able to visit us until after the holidays and
they are pretty awesome. We read the introduction with Guillermo, and he
loved it. We visited Amado and Laura, a family whom the English elders
referred to us. We had taught Laura the restoration, and when we came by
again we went over it with Amado. It was a good lesson, and they are a
very cool family.
We were going through our area book, and we found a record for a deaf
woman, where they had taught the family, but couldn't do anything with
her. We will try by and see if I can't brush up on my sign language.
Again with church we tried everyone we could, but one person came, and that was good.
I love you all, and thanks for all of your prayers in my behalf.
In my studies, I have learned from 3 Nephi 19:13, 21-24, 27, 33 that
when we have the Spirit with us, our desires are His desires. In prayer
we speak from our heart, and if the Spirit can guide us in our prayers
and we can feel the Spirit in your prayers, our desires become His
desires. "Filled with desire", and then our hearts are open and we can
learn the hidden things He wants us to know. That's just part of the
process of becoming more like Him.
I love you all, and thank you for your support and love.
Love,
Elder Sant
