Hola hola hola! ¿Cómo les fue está semana? Espero que todo
esté bien. :)
[Hello Hello hello! How was your week? Hope all is well. :)]
Bueno, this week. This week . . . was hard. A bit.
So, Elva. We visited her this week to give her one last
chance. She hasn´t been progressing for a while now and so we had a charla
franca. We dropped Elva this week. It was sad. She is such a sweet lady. She
told us that she is going to keep praying and reading the Book of Mormon,
"even if you don´t come anymore." It was sweet.
Estela apparently really doesn´t want anything to do with
us. She just said yes because she didn't want us to feel bad. So, that was
hard.
But, we did find two families! Woohoo!
One of them we could only teach the mom. Her name is Belén.
We talked a lot and she told us that her father died two years ago. She feels
really guilty because she feels that there is more that she could have done to
help him. As a result of her guilty feelings she has resorted to smoking.
We were talking and as I was thinking about what she needed to hear I first
thought Plan of Salvation. Her father died. She needs to know that she can
see him again. But that wasn´t right. So then I thought, she needs to
hear about the Atonement. That she can be forgiven. Nope. Wrong again. My
companion told me later that she thought about the Word of Wisdom even. But no.
All wrong. She needed to hear that God loves her, that she is His daughter and
the she is important to Him. We talked about that and the Spirit was very
strong. It was beautiful! I really showed me that really, it´s the small and
simple things that the people need to hear. The small and simple things are the
most easily forgotten and the most needed.
We also found Mayra and Sebastian. We were only there for a
short time and so we don´t really know them yet, but we´re excited to work with
them!
Anyway, we are hoping to find some new investigators this
week!
Romina and her family are doing well. Although we didn´t
really get to talk to them this week. Francina turned 10 and so they were
preparing the party and everything. But, we´ll get them next week. :)
I hope you are all doing well and that you always remember
how much I love you! Have a fantastic week!!!
Love from,
Hermana Micaela Wilson
