this week was so amazing!!!! we went ot the temple with our zone, it was the best.
So i got to go back to mesa grande on saturday(my old area) for the baptism of one of my investigators, he is a single dad with 4 children and he needed a lot of encouragment to read and pray about The Book of Mormon, i know that anyone who reads it cannot help but to feel closer to God and feel more joy in life, as we read and live by its precepts and my testimony and conversion grows deeper every time i see another soul saved because of it. He would have never been baptized if the members didn't do their part. With the love and fellowship they demonstrated, he felt so loved and a part of a big huge happy family, he is so amazing i am so excited for him to get the Priesthood.
this same example is recorded in the scriptures in Heleman 6:3:
Nevertheless, the people of the church did have great joy because of the conversion of the Lamanites, yea, because of the church of God, which had been established among them. And they did afellowship one with another, and did rejoice one with another, and did have great joy.
His father who we also taught stopped coming because his wife in mexico didnt let him or else her nor his other sons will talk to him ever again. I am so thatkfull that Genaro, didn't let stan get a hold of his heart and he did what he knew was right for him and his family. I love him!! and all his cute little babes.
This is our investigator Marco Antonio Hernandez Garcia who just got baptized on saturday:
he is so amazing the other day we were teaching him about the Priesthood and he shared his testimony with us about how last year he had some very hard trials, but in the midst of it all he knew he wasn't alone and that he knew GOd loved him and was there for him. HE recieved more understanding and more strenght to get through them. He understands perfecty that it is not just about study study all the time, but to share your talents and help people in need and stregthen them. He will be an amazing priesthood holder, he is such a great example:)
this is me Genrao an my old amasing Mission leader. :)
