my companion is so funny,Sister Garrick, and i hate her at the moment she is doing it, but in the morning i laugh about it! She sleep talks and she is always bearing her testimony and teaching lessons and its super amazing to know her heart is centered on the work of the ministry, but she wakes me up! but it's fine because its way funny!
My brother wrote me today or sometime this week! how amazing he says he wants to let go of his anger and leave all those burdens behind and through that come close to me and my mom. I am so happy i couldn't stop crying as i responded sharing my testimony of my Savior and how when we are filled with his love we have no room for hate and that's why i always forgave him for the things he did to my mom and i. What a blessing and I am glad he has that good desire.
Happy Fathers day to all those good fathers out there! thank you for being great examples to me, u know who you are , pretty much everyone in the Santa Cruz Ward, hehe.
We have a new investigator his name is Angel and let me tell you the section in Preach my Gospel on How to Begin Teaching really saves our lives, because through those starting points we can go off on anything in the gospel that helps anyone! whoahoooo! testifying about The Book of Mormon is so fun! who knew! especially because the fountain of words that come out are so smooth and directed by the spirit and almost always answers what they need to hear. this man believes in Christ and loves to read which is exciting because he said he gs going to read the whole things before we meet again and ask us a ton of questions which i am excited about. He asked us why do you focus on the Book of Mormon more than the Bible? and if i read it and know that it is true what will be the point? i told him that the scriptures were written by prophets, that is how we know the will of God and just as in times of old God calls prophets today, the
Book of Mormon was written in the Americas and in it it outlines the plan of Salvation , how we can fin joy in this life and it has the ministry of Jesus Christ himself here in the Americas and when we read it and pray and ask God if it is true and if it is true we will also know if Joseph Smith is a prophet of God and that he restored the true church of Christ in which we can have everything that Christs' original church had when he established it, which means we have everything necessary to be able to perform saving ordinances, so we can be saved in His kingdom with our loved ones. So that's why we focus on the Book of Mormon.
We are teaching Mirian and David and their son Jordan, they love church, the brotherly kindness the, service, the Plan of happiness, the Visitors Center, the restoration they love everything and gladly keep commitments, although we have to remind them that it is important to keep reading and praying about the Book of Mormon because that it the only way they will know for themselves if it is true. They aren't married and we need to teach them teh Law of chastity and we invited them to be baptizes a while back and he said sure and she says she needs more time, but she already told us about the time she went back to the catholic church and how she hated it and it didnt feel right and how no one knows eachother. So now she is coming to His church now, so i am so lucky to know them and teach them:) i know they will make that right choice somday and its all his will not mine.
I love riding my bike everywhere in the Heat! it is so hot outside and i am so dark skinned! i have to drink tons of water and gird up my loins or else it wont be pretty riding around in a skirt all day.
