I have a testimony in Jesus Christ and in Heavenly Father. I know that they love me so much they established a plan that allows me to return to live with them. I have a testimony of the Book of Mormon and of Joseph Smith, I know Heavenly Father restored the gospel through him. The Book of Mormon is another testament of Jesus Christ and his love for me. I have a testimony of Thomas S. Monson. I know he is a living prophet and through him we receive guidance from our Father in Heaven. I know going on my mission is the right thing to do, I want to become a tool in the hands of the Lord. I know that Fort Lauderdale is the place I am supposed to go and the Lord will help me on my path. I know families can be together forever, that I will be able to see my grandmother and other relatives that have passed on when I too leave this world and return to Him.

In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

Week 84 In Ft. Lauderdale....

May 11, 2015

We had a baptism!! I would send you the picture but I don't have it... I am waiting for it! But that's ok! You'll get it soon. 

That would definitely be a highlight to this week, other great thing happened as well this week we met W***** and M****! They are a young couple that was getting ready to get married, he is form Argentina and she is from Paraguay so they both speak with some sick accents! their double "L" or "ll" is more of a "ja" than a "ya". M**** and W***** also have really good questions as well that are real "Questions of the Soul" and they are easy to find answers in the Book of Mormon. 

But besides that we are spending most of our time searching for more new people we can teach, we had 3 investigators and then we baptized a third of them... so we need to find more!! In fact that's a problem amongst the whole district that we are working on!

Other fun things this week we did a lot of "blitzing" where we meet up at a spot swap companions for a bit and then go out and hit the same area hard, we have seen some miracles doing this (both in English) One was M***, we had a very spiritual prayer with her and then when we invited her to be baptized she said that she already had been, then we asked "Have you been baptized by fire?" and she was like "No but I need that how do I do it?" and we said, "by the laying on of hands Acts chapter 8" then she was SO down!! So boom.

Then we had the same experience with another man named M******, but with that one we asked him so go get his bible and while he was in the house we joked "what if he brings out a New World Translation and it ruins everything." AND AS SOON AS WE SAID THAT. He walks out and places in Elder C. T*****'s have a nice grey leather bound... New World Translation.... I ALMOST laughed but I contained my self and then proof read the story before I let him read it. It worked but I am bringing him a new bible that is easier to understand.

Any way that was our week!! I hope it was fun to read...


STAY STRONG!! PUSH ON!!!
