Power of a Priesthood Blessing

Wed May 5, 2010
Honestly I am just going to write a little note this week. Cuz we are talking on Sunday!! Woohoo!! I will call at 8 on Sunday evening. so 5 your time. it should be in this moment anyway. There are four missionaries that will be using the phone and i am calling last.
Ok so this week, we had a bit of a scare because on friday we went to teach Agustina and she said she was really confused and didnt know what to do because she really liked going to catechism before she started listening to us and that she wasnt going to get the holy ghost on sunday. I was like ok we cant tell you what to do but God can. And haven't you received an answer that this is the true church? and she said yes, but I like the other one too. Anyway i was like oh crap. That night we went home and prayed fervently to know what we could do to help want to get it. The next day we returned and we able to talk about what a basic testimony consists of. She was much happier the next day and was happy to say that she was excited and ready to get the holy ghost. She truly has a testimony and we were able to bring her to the church. She didn't seem that excited to go but hey, after talking about princesses and our favorite holidays she was very excited. yesterday we saw her again very happy and ready to talk more about el don del espiritu santo.
Her cousin got really sick, Alan. My comp said, i know if we get a member to go and and give a blessing they will feel the power and get baptized. So we asked the Patriarch to go with us to the Hospital. He is one really strong man of God. it is really rad to have the Patriarch in our ward. He went and gave the blessing- The parents of Alan, that had before treated us actually kind of rudely. were super nice. I had never seen anyone so greatful. They definitely felt and recognized the presence of the Priesthood of God.
This Patriarch Lombardo, he is so great. He served a mission a long time ago. president Kimball came and visited him, and with the gift of tongues they were able to have an interview, speaking in english and spanish. Also he had a book of mormon that he signed and Presdent kimball said I am proud of you. It was really neat to hear the testimony of the Patriarch. He is also the best at always friendshipping the investigators we bring to church.
Great week! I love you all.
