One day we were in the church waiting for a member that was going to do visits with us.
Didn't show. We were super sad. So as we were waiting, the man that is replacing the tile in our church showed up to do some more fixing. So we started chatting with him. (Ain't got nothing better to do...jaja just kidding.)
So we got chatting away...and would you guess he had been working for the church for 15 years, taking the missionary lessons and has 4 times in the church? Yup. Jorge. And he lives in front of the church...at least will live there for the next month and a half. And would you guess who wants to be baptized?!?! SI!!! JORGE!!! So yeah....that's pretty legit!!
Almost miracle...Jorge didn't come to church on Sunday :( So his date fell...but we have a lot of hope for this next Monday. CHRISTMAS MIRACLE!!! Please pray for this child of God!! He knows it's all true!!! Just needs to take the plunge!!
Miracle!!! Daniel. He's our atheist!!! I found an atheist!! But it's SUPER hard to teach him. His mind and questions are EVERYWHERE!!! And it's all in Spanish. Wow. Hard stuff. But with God all things are possible...and I KNOW there is a God :) Horrah for faith! Well one day, we were teaching him and we were having a very very very hard time getting a word in without interruptions...so what came into my mind...inspiration!! jajaja..it's super funny inspiration.
A pen. ''Hermano...okay..we are going to try something. See this pen? Okay...whoever has the pen can talk. If you don't have the pen...no talking. Okay?'' Miralce. It worked!!! Super duper funny!! Good times...
Other miracle with Daniel...
We had a lesson planned with him...but we forgot about the baptism for the elders and the same time...which I was doing the musical number...on a violin!!!!
So we decided we were going to invite Daniel to the baptism...my companion didn't think he would come...buuuuuuuut...once we told him I was going to be playing the violin...he said yes.
AND HE CAME!!! And he even dressed up in a nice shirt and pants!!! I think he wants to believe in God. It's SUPER hard and tiring not to believe in God.
I LOVE MORONI 7!!
40 And again, my beloved brethren, I would speak unto you concerning hope. How is it that ye can attain unto faith, save ye shall have hope?
41 And what is it that ye shall hope for? Behold I say unto you that ye shall have hope through the atonement of Christ and the power of his resurrection, to be raised unto life eternal, and this because of your faith in him according to the promise.
42 Wherefore, if a man have faith he must needs have hope; for without faith there cannot be any hope.
We have hope because of the atonement of Jesus Christ!! I know he suffered for us and that his atonement is perfect!! It can cleanse and heal any wound, ALL WOUNDS or SCARS!!! But we first need faith. A life without hope is miserable!! So how can we have hope?? Through the atonement of Jesus Christ!!
Almost miracle...we almost had investigators in the church....but no...but the next week!!
CHRISTMAS MIRACLES!!!
Oh...and remembered one more miracle...scary miracle.
So yesterday we went to visit our dear Severo...he is an older recent convert...soooo cute! So childlike!! Well...as we were teaching him, he started to seizure!! We very hurriedly and very freaked out, got him onto his bed. If we had not been there...he could have been very badly injured. SUPER SCARY. He was out for only 1 or 2 minutes...but they were 2 minutes I don't want to relive again...with him or ANYONE!! But he was very grateful a Dios that we were there.
That's all for now...
LOVE YOU ALL SO MUCH!!!
Share the ''He is the gift''...oh ''el es la dadiva'' on facebook...era day!!!!
