Rhett

Hola!!
Yo espero que todo esta bien con ustedes! This week was another good week. We were able to have some great lessons and experiences. This Sunday also a lot of investigators come to church as well. The members now have a lot of confidence and trust in us to let us work with their friends. I can feel the excitement growing in the branch about missionary work. There is one family that has been asking us for pamphlets, and literally just goes out and starts contacting people on the streets and finding investigators for us. Haha it's so awesome!

This week we had a great experience with one family we've been teaching. We have been teaching them for the past month, but they have never been able to come to church. Every time we invite them, they just say awww...the next week...I'm not sure...I need to wait a little bit longer...So this week we had a lesson with them and taught them the importance of attending church. We showed them that we loved them, and wanted them to go because we know the gospel can bless their lives. I was super direct with them. It was actually pretty funny. I told the mom...Hey sister, we have been talking for you guys for about a month now, and every week you say you want to wait. How much longer do you want to wait? The next time you say that it will have been a year! Why not go now and see for yourself? We don't know how long we will be here on the Earth, but we know that God has many blessings to give you. You need to go to church this week. If you don't, you will never be able to know if it's true and receive all of those blessings. Haha they laughed a little bit about that but knew that I was serious. We called them that night to remind them and see if we could pass by their house in the morning before church. She said that they would go but that they would just meet us at church. They called us the next morning an hour before church and told us that they were waiting by the door. Haha they came to church and were even an hour early. It was an awesome experience to see them take the first step and come to church! The members were super good with them and it was a great experience for them!

This work in Obligado is amazing. We have been having experiences on a daily basis that have strengthened my testimony so much. I want to end off with a scripture I read this week, 3 Nephi 13:32-33. The Lord knows what we need. If we seek Him first, he will give us all the rest that we need. I love this work. I know that this church is true. I invite you all to go to church and find out for yourselves. I love you all-Have a good week!
