Week 70

Monday, April 15, 2019

So not a lot to report this week. As every missionary knows you get to a point when you need to find new people and knock doors all day every day to get a new base. That was this week for us. We had only a few people progressing and had to replenish our supply of families to teach. So this week we went crazy finding new people. It’s not always the most fun work but a process essential. 

God knows everything and it is amazing and fun to see how he lets his work precede. We did a contact with a woman who gave us her info and we made an appointment the next day. When getting there we clapped hands and called but nobody answered. Thinking that nothing would come out of the experience, a boy came out across the street and we managed to teach him and mark a date. He asked us if baptism had the power to forgive all his sins. He is hard to find during weekends but we have high hopes for him. Please pray for Wellington. 

Another fun story was getting Acai (fruit like ice cream). We did a contact with the family running the store and taught their family. In the door way of the street. And every 2 minutes another person would come and listen until we were teaching in the road about 10 people. 

Spiritual thought: Prayer is action. We don’t pray that the lord with prepare people and send them to us to be baptized. We pray that we can find the people that the lord will put in our path. That we can talk to everyone and find where we teach and teach where we find. Miracles come only after all we can do. The Savior's grace saves after... all we can do. So let’s get up and do it! 

I love you all tons! Hope you all have a great week and a great Easter!
