Tuesday when we were going to Alejandra's house, we met some Jehova's Witnesses and they started attaching us. Not physically, but they were asking us a bunch of questions. Lucky for me I have a great companion who knew what to say.
Last week we bought a plant and we planted it. Everyday we water it only if we saw a miracle in our lives. But there are always miracles! It is nice to think about the day and ask, "what were the miracles that we saw today."
We also visited Shane and we taught him about the Plan of Salvation. He said he liked to hear about the plan again because it since so much time has passed he was sure that he was going to the Terrestrial Kingdom. But we told him no! We told him that he can reach the Celestial Kingdom. But he has to do his part and work hard in order to get there. But we told him that we are here to help him get there. He was very happy.
Then we went to visit a man, Richard who was an investigator but for some reason he stopped meeting with the missionaries. We went to see how he was doing and he told us that he was having a hard day and he was glad that we came to share a scriptures with him. We told him that we don't know everything that is happening in his life right now, but that Jesus Christ does. And that if he looks to Christ for help and comfort, He will help him with all his problems. It was a really nice moment.
We went to look for a member referral that we got, but she wasn't home. But her daughter-in-law was home and she started to tell us her experience with religion and how the Lord has helped her and her family. She was very interested in what we do and she invited us to come again and talk with the rest of the family about what we believe. We are very excited!
Well, we are looking and finding so many people, and even though not all of them are interested in the message that we have for them, it gives us great pleasure to be able to talk to them.
Go to justserve.org and there you can put and find opportunities to serve in the community. We are very excited for this opportunity to find so many people. Also, the church is going to release a new movie. It's called "Meet the Mormons." Check it out.
Sometimes I think: I'm just a 19 year old girl, I don't have any idea what to do. What am I doing in California! But then I start to think of all the people that I have met so far and that's when I know that the Lord has sent me here because there are people that have been waiting for me. I know that with the help of the Holy Ghost, He is going to help me know what to do at all times.
I love you all so much <3
