This past week was awesome in the sense of our investigators progressing. We were able to have 8 people at church with us! 5 of them for the first time. Elder Hernandez and I have been focusing on finding alot more young people because they really are the future of the church and usually a lot more receptive. In fact 7 of the 8 that came with us were less than 22 years of age! And yes Pablo did come in his suit! 😂 A brother in the ward has a big ole van and we passed by for all 8 of them in the morning! 11 people in the van heading over to church, what great memories! I felt like we were passing to pick up the 2,000 strippling warriors!
We also had a very spiritual lesson with 2 women named Rocio and Mary, mother and daughter. We contacted them a while back but it was a struggle to find them again. For the first time we showed up and they invited us in. We taught about the resturation of the gospel and about baptism. We invited them to be baptized and they happily accepted. During this lesson they had very interesting questions such as: Why do some people suffer so much here on Earth? Why is your church different than the others? Why am I here on Earth? Where am I going after this life?. It was incredible to see how the spirit gave Elder Hernandez and I the words they needed to hear. Also how the spirit testified to them of what we were saying was true. We ended by asking if they had prayed before in thier life and they commented that it had been a very long time. We than offered a kneeling prayer with them in thier living room. Elder Hernandez offered a wonderful prayer and it was evident that every single person in the room was touched by the spirit of the Lord. Moments like these have truly fortified my testimony. Have a great week. MANTÉNGANSE SEGUROS EN LA FE Y DIOS LES BENDICIRÁ. LES AMO. QUE TENGAN UNA BONITA SEMANA!
Love, Elder Gibson
