Stake Conference visitors

Monday, May 24, 2010
Hello. This has been a week medio dificil. Well the past couple weeks have been like that. The investigators that we do have, lie to us or are jealous or just aren´t progressing at all, and then the investigators that we don´t have, well there are a lot of those.... We just keep working and hoping that with our obedience and talking to a lot of people we will be able to find the people that have been prepared to receive the gospel. It is just tough sometimes to have the animo to keep going. Another frustrating thing is that a lot of people we do contact do not live in our area. we contacted this family the other day- so awesome! but they were roadtripping from cordoba. The dad said he owned a panaderia and that the elders went there all the time to eat but he had never talked to them. Anyway they were super nice and gave us their direction. hopefully that information can get passed along.
ALso a really good thing that made me feel a bit happier was on sunday. There is this menos activo in our ward who is pretty crazy but hilarious and we really love her. anyway we walked past her house on friday and her and her husband were outside and they were like come here! so we went inside and chit chatted and invited them to stake conference. they came too! then we ate lunch with them after and that was really fun. they really liked it too. but the husband Hector who isn´t a member was really apalled at all the kids with cell phones and that were playing around and not listening. I honestly didnt really know what to say. But luckily he enjoyed it and they both saw a lot of people that they knew. including that edith hugged the bishop and we found out they both got baptized on the same day like 18 years before. that was neat to see. I really feel that they may be on their way to activity and baptism. The only problem is that Hector prefers to talk about things from the US and not necessarily de la Iglesia. My comp and I also sang in the choir for both sessions, and it was well frankly like the worst choir I´ve been in. The director wasnt too pleased with our efforts, which well. It doesnt matter I just think we all need to try and thank people that go out of their way to give service. I think we need to also be gratfeul to those that help us even if it seems like something little to us. Also I think we need to be especially aware of the blessings that we receive from our Heavenly Father and be sure to always thank Him.
I know that this is the true church of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I also know that when we obey Him and do His will and stand as His witness we will be blessed in all that we do(even though sometimes we don´t always see the success or blessings right away) We don´t understand the plan God has for us sometimes but we can trust in Him and His Justice and mercy. I love the verses in Mosiah 4:9-10 (creed que el hombre no comprende todas las coasa que el SeƱor puede comprender)
I love this gospel and I love all of you. I hope you enjoy your fun vacay in Florida! sounds like a blast. dont forget to buy me a souvenir. haha jk :)
bye!
