Hola Familia!
Espero que todo este bien y que tuvieron un semana muy bueno. Estoy muy agradacido por su apoyo! Ko semana haekue Ipora Terreri! This week flew by super fasttt. I cant believe its already PDAY again. Pretty crazy. Elder Prina and I worked hard this week. We saw some miracles and are seeing changes in a lot of people.
Sandra did a fast last week with us so that her boyfriend would get married with her and let her get baptized. She lives in Obligado and we are in Capitan Miranda so its been kinda crazy trying to go visit her. When we visited her a few days later she told us she did a fast all by herself and that she really wants to go to church and has the faith that things will change. She is so awesome. Her baptisimal date is this Saturday. We will see what happens. Please pray for her, that she can get married so she can can be baptized. That would be awesome.
In Capitan Miranda we have been teaching a family, the familia Lopez. They are a family of 4 and are actually married!!! Haha that is so hard to find here in Paraguay. The missionaries before had been teaching them a while back before I got here and they love it! The dad has been reading the Book of Mormon and even general conference talks from the Liahona. They have been wanting to get baptized, but just haven't been able to go to church because the mom always works on Sunday. We talked to her about putting her faith in God and how if you put God first He will help you go to church. I shared with her Ether 12:6 about how we don't receive any testimony or "blessing" until after the trial of our faith . If you have the faith and talk to your boss about having Sundays off Heavenly Father will make it possible to come to church. She told us she will try and work it out with her boss. I'm super excited to see the change in their lives when they can make it to church.. They are so ready and want to have the gospel in their lives they just have to take that first step of faith. We have a lesson planned with them today so we will see what happens.
I just want to end off saying that I love this work. I feel like I have changed so much as I have put my faith forth and trusted in His help. I know that with the faith and with our personal effort and action, we can see miracles and we can be the means of great things. Love you all!
Elder Reilly
