So I dont know whats happening but the weeks go by so so so
fast.
This last week we went to Azua for a zones conference and
learned a lot. One thing about being a missionary is youre never a perfect
one... and always always can improve.
thats how it is in life though too. We´re here to improve
and continually learn. Sometimes I dont feel the brightest but I strive to
improve day by day and thats all we can ever really do.
Anyway,
I just wanted to share a cool experience. So we have found
this family. The mother was baptized in 1987 but moved away shortly after that
and then moved back to San Juan and the church was really far away so she never
went back. Well i had seen her several times before when i was with hermana
Dibble and i always felt like we should talk to her but I never did other than
a short hola with passing.
However a couple days ago we were sharing a message in the
street when she passed by and mentioned shed like us to visit her. we said of
coarse and set a day to go visit her. We showed up that day and found out she
was a member and shared with her husband and son. Ironically we had also met
the husband a day or so before and he had told us that down the street was a
woman named Rosa that liked the Mormon church... However, he didnt mention it
was his WIFE.... Anyway, Heavenly Father works in mysterious ways and we now
know this family.
We shared with them and invited them to church. They said
sure and we offered to walk with them. So we told them 830 but we showed up
early and they were all ready to go. (except the husband because he had to
work)... However Rosa and her two kids were ready and excited to go. We showed
up early to church and were able to show them around and explain a little bit
about baptism and the sacrament. They all seemed very interested and
entrigued.
Anyway, church got started and we helped them to thier
classes and what not. We left for a short while to pick up another investigator
and to stop by a less active. The investigator Cheilin came with us and the
young women just welcomed her in and became instant best friends which was so
awesome. The less active (Teresa) came later and ended up setting next to Rosa
and they seemed to be hitting it off too. Teresa wants to visit Rosa with
us.
Its so cool how missionary works. Usually Sundays are super
stressfull but yesterday was a miracle day.
I love the Gospel truly and know its true. I know that it
blesses lives. We are not perfect and can continually improve and the Gospel
helps us grow and improve in the right direction.
I know Heavenly Father lives and loves us. I know that Jesus
Christ is His son and that His gospel has been restored to earth.
I know it.
I love you all and hope you have a great week and try to
look for the many blessings and tender mercies Heavenly Father will give you
this week.
Despite the rain the sun is always there. Be happy. Be
grateful. Be true.
Love you!
con mi amor,
Hermana Hildman
