June 1, 2014-36 weeks!

This week was a very awesome week for us. We had our Zone Conference and it was the last one for our Mission Prez before he goes home. So it was really emotional for him and his wife. They have been really good to us out here. and though ill only have them for 11 out of my 24 months ill miss them. But the cool part is that ill be able to go to two mission reunions! One with Prez Wolfert and on with my new mission Prez. So there is a bonus. But this week our goal was to try to focus on less actives and get referrals from them. But the Lord had different plans for us. during this week when we were knocking doors we had the very special opportunity to teach allot of people a lesson on there porch or even go in and share it with them. we had several people that let us come back as well and people we are excited to teach. In just these last two week we have found about 8 new investigators some of those have family's as well we have just not had the chance to go back and teach them all together. so all in all we had about 17 lessons that we taught to people that were not members! Our less active work did not get done so much like we hoped, but we did find out that 3 have moved away, 1 of them including his house. His name is Orozco. we saw him about 3 weeks ago, house and all. but no there is nothing but a mail box and a dirt outlining. Who knows maybe he got taken up like the city of Zion. 

For along while here we have felt like everything was slowing down and that nobody else wanted to listen. But now we can see the fruits of our diligence coming back out again. I took from this lesson of slow work is that in life times will go slow, and you may feel like nothing is happening and that it is just the same, that it will never change. But if you just be faithful and continue doing what you are told, eventually the blessings will come.  They may not come when you hope, or even when you think they are needed to continue on. But they will come and then you will be able to partake of the fruits of your labors. And oh how sweet they will be. May favorite part about trials are the lessons that i learn and the things i can apply into my life not just now in the mission, but more importantly when I go home so that i can be the best i can be and do all that the Lord still has planned for me to do. Because truly whats the point of this life if we don't learn anything? 

Tenga una semana marvillosa!!
