This week was really good! I would like to first start off by saying I had a great time talking to my family! Love them so much and all the support they show me! Also hope that all the mothers had an awesome day and felt how important they are to the power of the family and priesthood in our lives. I am so grateful for all that my Mom has done for me and will always remember the things she has taught me for the rest of my life! This week was pretty good. This week I did divisions with Elder Northrup. He has become a really good amigo of mine and I am grateful for everything that I learned from him the poco time I was with him. Haha it is so funny to see the people´s faces here when they see me especially when there is 2 gringos juntos jajajaj. It was a good time we sure talked with a lot of people and borrachos that is for sure haha!
So last week Elder Santiago and I gave a blessing to an Hna that was super sick. She was in her bed when we got there and she did not look good at all. Her hija had called us and asked us for a blessing. I gave her the blessing and when I finished I felt the biggest warmth when I was looking down at the Hna and she started to smile at me and told me "thank you Guerrito." This week Elder Santiago and I passed by this week to check on her and what do you know she answers the door and had the biggest smile on her face. She was full of energy and she was so happy that she almost gave us hugs hahha. Just to see this work and the power that an unción and a priesthood blessing has makes me so happy to be a priesthood holder. Always strive to use your priesthood and exercise it when it is needed. Always be digno too because you never know when someone is going to need a blessing. As missionaries we always try to have a plan for everything but we have to make a lot of adjustments depending on how the Hna feels. Sometimes being a priesthood holder can be hard but is so awesome to literally have the power of God to help others. Something else important to remember is that the Hnas are the most important part of the priesthood. Without them and their support the priesthood doesn´t work. I am so grateful for the opportunity to have the priesthood and to exercise it casi diario. Nothing makes me more happy here than seeing the people happy!
I know that this Church is the only true church that Jesus established when he came here and Joseph Smith restauró la iglesia después que había caída. I am so grateful to be a missionary of this church and to bring this happiness into their lives. Yes there is still challenges as a member but I am so grateful for the opportunity to give this chance to the people here to hear this gospel and find out for themselves if it is the truth. I love being a missionary!
Today we played in the Estaca and un Hno barbequed for us. Haha I don´t even know if that is how you spell that word, I am slowly losing words in English. My family was testigos of that last night haha. Hope all is well and that you guys have a great week!
