24 April 2018




Wow thanks for that letter, that´s pretty awesome that everyone is learning a ton and all that good stuff!

I just wanted to let you all now that I love you and that I am praying for you. I also want to tell you that I know this church is true, It took me a long time to gain that testimony, but now I can honestly say, that I know that this church is true. Every day, I get to see little miracles and testimonies of that truth.

The other day we were hanging out in the park, waiting for another pair of elders so that we could do exchanges with them, and my companion jokingly said: "why don't you go and contact someone?" (he doesn't like to contact random people in the street and start to teach the gospel cause it´s a little weird). So I said okay, and walked off to start up a conversation with a guy nearby who was sitting alone. I walked up and introduced myself, and he quickly invited me to sit down next to him. We started to chat. I could tell that something was weighing him down from some of the things he said and the way he talked, so I shared with him a scripture in the Book of Mormon that talked about the saving and comforting power of Jesus's Atonement, and testified to him. I invited him to read the Book of Mormon. He then told me "wow, just before you came, I was thinking about all the problems I have, and I was just about to hit the bar and grab something to drink, but now that you came, and told me that, I'm not going to go where I was thinking of going."

I can testify to you guys that I know this is really the Lord's work, and that the church is true, and like this guy that I talked to in the park realized, Jesus Christ really is the answer to our problems. It might sound a little cliche, but it is true. When we read the scriptures, go to church, pray, and do all the other things that we are asked to do we are blessed; blessed with more peace, and joy in our lives.

So I invite you all to continue reading the scriptures, praying, and attending church, and I promise you, as a representative of Jesus Christ, that you will be blessed.

Está bien.

I love you all
