SLC WEEK 83

Hola todos!

Holy cow what a great week! Lots of movement in the work and support from the ward. And a great focus on a family we have taught for a while.

 

The most exciting news the Dicembre family was baptized! We taught them from week 1 here in this area. We had stopped and started teaching them many times. It was difficult to get them all to church, but the day came! They have shown a lot of unity and progression that comes from the gospel. Also they have many friends who were converts of the church outside of our ward. As Daniel and Alessandra were married we saw tons of support from the ward and they were truly included into the ward family. On Sunday they received a warm welcoming and the spirit was so strong. I'm grateful for the opportunity to have taught them and partaken of this journey. I know they will continue forward and see many blessings by staying on this path. The gospel truly blesses individuals and families

We also have many others who have shown great faith and I'm excited for these next few weeks. I have seen the Lord truly bless these amazing people in this area and am grateful to see these miracles.

My grandma told me last week I should write some of the hardships we are facing, but I have bad news for her. There's another huge miracle. The sun is out!! We had warmer days this week with great weather. A short sleeve shirt week. It's about time haha

Our ward mission leader brother Gonzalez has been a huge help and I'm grateful for him as well and the things he has done to make all this happen and the time he has taken out to fulfill his calling.

Although the ward has been a huge help, we have a ward where everyone is either an amazing member or basically inactive haha. They kind of need help from us and hopefully we can help that out while helping these people continue to find the truthfulness of the gospel. 

Easter week has been great and I'm grateful especially for the Savior and his Atonement. As I have studied His sacrifice for us and resurrection, I have felt true peace and have noticed I have testified even more about His atoning power in our lives. I hope everyone had a Christ Centered Easter week! 

I'm grateful for many of these experiences during my mission and hope for more each day.

I hope everyone has had a great week! And the next one even better!

Love,

Elder Randall
