| Together Again! Hermana Brown came to El Olivar to visit this week! |
Wow, the conference looks GREAT!
Nice work mom :) That's so cool that so many non-members went too!!(Our Stake held a Women's Conference in conjuction with the General RS Broadcast) I
wasn't able to go see the RS General Broadcast, but I am sure it was so good! I am
excited to get all of the people that live within the boundaries of my area
to GENERAL CONFERENCE! We are making huge posters to put around town
and a bunch of fliers that we are going to hand out all week. Everyone
needs to hear the words of the Prophet and Apostles! And I think it will
help our investigators progress a lot! I am also really happy because
my Spanish is fluent enough now that I can watch conference in Spanish
and actually benefit from it and understand the messages :) So that will
be cool! I don't think I have ever been so excited for conference
before. Once you are on a mission, things like conference just have a
whole new meaning. I am SO excited!
This week has been COOL. We are teaching a bunch of
families and teaching families is literally the best. We found this guy
named Julio César in the street a really long time ago, when I was with
Hermana Muñoz. Hermana Jones and I see him ALL the time so we
finally asked him if we could teach him, even though he is SUPER busy
all the time. He doesn't live in our area, but we decided we would just
go to his work and teach him there, because his work IS in our area. We went to his work one day, and ended up finding a family there with 9 people
that we can teach! We were teaching Julio César and another boy named
Andy. Andy did not say ONE word our first visit(he is really really shy), so we
kind of focused on Julio César thinking Andy was not very interested.
When we came back, Andy had read 12 chapters in the Book of Mormon and
said he wanted to get baptized!!! It was SO cool! He says that there is
just so much power in the Book of Mormon and he knows that it is true! We are teaching him, and his little sister, Stefany, and their
cousin, Naysha (she was going to get baptized 2 years ago but ended up
not for some reason), and their Mom and Dad, Marlene and José Luis. Andy, Stefany, and Naysha all came to church this week and loved it! It is so cool because we always teach them in a little carpentry shack
next to their house and we had a lesson with them all last night in the
dark. There was just a little bit of light coming in from the street
and we were all just crammed in this little shack huddled around 3 Book
of Mormons (because Hermana Jones and I are handing out Book of Mormons like
CRAZY and we ran out haha :)) Everyone would get so excited for their
turn to read their verse in the Book of Mormon. We were reading in
chapter 13 of 1 Nephi which talks about the gentiles and how in the last
days, they will all have the chance to hear the gospel. I could just
feel the spirit so strong that night in our warm little shack all huddled around the Book of Mormon! It was so great to see all of
their desires to read the Book of Mormon and study the words of God. We
are so excited and lucky to be teaching this family :) It's hard
teaching a family like this though because not everyone can always be
taught at the same time...But we are continuing to work with them
and are so excited for their baptism the 12th of October!!!
Sé que esta es la iglesia verdadera y que José Smith
fue un profeta. Sé que el Libro de Mormón es verdadero y contiene la
plentitud del Evangelio de Jesucristo. Sé que Él es mi Salvador y
Redentor y por medio de Él, podemos volver a vivir con Dios y nuestras
familias por eternidad. Amo mi Señor y mi Dios y estoy MUY agradecida
por el Evangelio restaurado y el amor y misericordia de Dios. Ojalá que
puedo decir todo el Peru sobre estas cosas para que puedan sentir el
Espíritu y saber la veracidad de todas estas cosas. Sé que esta es la
iglesia verdadera con TODAS las ensañanzas de Jesucristo. El poder del
Sacerdocio es grande y verdadero. Gracias por todo su apoyo y ayuda :)
Les amo MUCHO :)
Hermana Agle
