Holaaaa,
Espero que todo esta bien ahi. Esta semana fue super copado!
It’s been a good week! We had a lot of good stuff happening over here. We have been just trying to be really bold and direct with our investigators to help them understand that we are here to change their lives and help them to follow Christ and help them receive all the blessings He has in store for them! Why not make the changes now, so you can be happy now and receive the blessings now. We had confidence that the Lord would soften their hearts and they would understand and I can say that we’ve seen some great things happen.
On Thursday we visited Mirla and Clemente and talked about eternal families and how they can be sealed and be together for time and eternity. They seemed to like that a lot and we explained that the way they can prepare is by taking the first step towards baptism. We put a date to get married and be baptized the next day and they accepted! We then shared our testimonies and told them about how they can prepare for baptism by going to church and that we knew the Lord would bless them if they could make the sacrifice and effort to go church. This past Sunday was also Mother’s Day here in Argentina so it would even be a greater sacrifice. They said ok and invited us to come to their house after church to have lunch and celebrate Mother’s Day with them. On Sunday Mirla, Clemente and their son Mattias all came to church! Haha it was so great to see them there, and I just pray that they can keep feeling the Spirit and have the help needed to follow!!
Man there are so many things that happen out here, I just don't have time to write it all, but I am very grateful to be here and a part of this great work. Thinking about what I wrote above, it is amazing how our God has prepared such a perfect plan and way to prepare us to return one day to live with Him. Through the small steps we take in our lives: Faith, repentence, baptism, partaking of the sacrament, going to the temple, all these steps bring us closer to Him. Through the small things, God can make big things happen. I hope you all have a great week! Love you
Elder Reilly
