This week was filled with lots of things. So this week Elder Diaz and I were having our estudio compañerismo and were talking in how we could get more success here in the ward. We came to the idea that we are going to teach clases de Inglés. This week I started teaching english classes and have made signs to get them spread out all over the area. This week we had like 5 or 6 in the classes but we are looking to help more people and to tal vez bring in more investigadores. We had one lady on Saturday after the clases ask us if we could pass by her house this week. We are going to see what the Lord has prepared for us ahí! This week I also did divisiones with Elder Warnick my Zone Leader and he come to my area and helped out here. It was actually a good day working with him, I learned a lot from him and hope to apply it in my work here in Volcanes. This week we also had Conferencia de Zone which I really enjoyed. I learned how we can better our work with the members and what we need to do to find more people to teach. Something that Elder Ballard has promised is that if the misioneros contact a 10 personas cada dia, we are going to have more éxito en nuestras areas.That is something that Elder Diaz and I are going to apply more in our areas and we will see the results. I am excited to start this week and see what the Lord has in store for us. This week we are going to have an actividad con muchas jovenes para contactar con ellos. I think this will be a good way to involve the jovenes en nuestras areas!
So starting August 1st the mission will be starting the Book of Mormon. We are going to read the book of Mormon in 90 days. I attached a guide to this email if you guys would like to join along with us. Something that I can promise is that your testimony of the Gospel and the Book of Mormon will grow. I am personally super excited to start and would love for anyone that wants to to join along. For those that don´t have a Book of Mormon and would like to join along talk to the misioneros in your area! I promise that we don´t bite and tha you will see a change in your life if you read this book. This week we found an investigador that the misioneros have been teaching for a long time. I had always known about him and that the misioneros were teaching him but my whole time with Garcia I never felt that it was right to talk to him yet. One day this week we were walking by him and I felt a strong prompting to stop and talk to him. At first I thought about but then I wasn´t going to deny what the Spirit was telling me so we went and passed by. We started to talk to him and ask him if he knew us and got to know him better. We asked him about the Book of Mormon and if he had ever read it and he answers us with yes I have and I have read it twice and I keep reading it. This answer threw me off guard honestly and I felt the Spirit so strong. We took out a cita with him and this week with Elder Warnick we put a fecha bautismal with him! The fact that Carlos had read it that many times and knew of its power was so awesome to me. During this time we began to talk to Carlos´s friend as well about the Book of Mormon and he acepted the book and has been reading it! This past Martes I gave my Junta over using the Book of Mormon and that we should use it all the time. I had each companionship go through all their investigadores and pick at least a scripture of the Book of Mormon to share in the lessons with them. This week our numeros were great! The numbers had increased and I knew it was because of the power of the Book of Mormon. The Hnas and Elderes in my district have shared me stories about it and it is so awesome to see how well and important the Book of Mormon is in our lives and the lives of others. I invite all to read it starting August 1st and to finish it in 90 days with me and the rest of the misión Cuidad de México Sureste!
This week I am looking forward to and to see what the Lord has in store for us! This Saturday I am going to return to Polanco my last area and baptize one of the investigadores that Elder Santiago and I found while I was there. I can not wait and I was so excited to get the phone call and here that I was going to do the ordenanza. I will have pics this week for sure and I hope you all have a great week!
