Buenos días a todooooos. Qué tal estáissssss. Espero que estéis muy bien, y lo siento por los que no habléis ingles 🤣
This week has been amazing.
Monday: Visited a super cool Arabic museum and had a wonderful noche de hogar with Ronald y su familia and YeimiTuesday: Moved things into the new local!!! It is about double or triple the size of the last one and it will help so much for the rama here in Cáceres. Also made limonada suíça which was delicious
Wednesday: While we were planning the day we had a prompting to visit a menos activo family that lived an hour away, so we walked an hour, and when we knocked on their door, they immediately opened it and let us in. They hadnt met with missionaries for about 10 years, and we talked for about an hour with them and set up another time to passbye. We also had a wonderful noche de hogar with Viviana and Carlos Alegre.
Thursday: We helped move some more stuff in the new local, and played ping pong with Georgina and Ronald which was wonderful.
Friday: We basically had lessons all day which was amazing 🤣 I love teaching, the Spirit is always so strong.
Saturday: We did passbyes and knocked on members door that just got here from Ecuador, and he is such a good strong member. His name is John Marin and he was in the bishopric in his ward in Ecuador. We helped him find a grocery store and then carry his groceries back to his house, which was perfect timing because he is about 68 and it wouldve been hard for him to find the grocery store and carry the groceries back, so we saw the Lord's hand in that way, and then had a great lesson with a friend named Guillermo that we are going to visit on Wednesday.Sunday: We had our sacrament meeting in our new local!! The stake president came and there were 50 people in attendance!! 20 more than our usual!! We saw so many miracles and continue to see them. The Spirit was so strong in that local, especially while singing El Espíritu de Dios (the Spirit of God). After that, our friend that came to church lost his keys to his car and house, so he was freaking out and saying that one of the guys at church stole them, which would've been impossible. So, we helped him around and get to the police station, and he was able to get home 🙏
Hoje: I invite you all to keep the commandments of God. Consider on the blessed and happy state of those that keep the commandments. Being obedient brings the Spirit. The Spirit will tell us all things that we should do. All of us need direction and guidance in this life. Who better to receive direction from than God, our loving Heavenly Father, who knows us and everyone and everything perfectly, and loves us with a love beyond our comprehension. The way to receive this direction is through His Spirit. Being obedient to the commandment of God invites the Spirit. So, keep the commandments, and you will be guided in all that you do, and receive an eternal joy. In the name of Jesus Christ, amén.
Os quiero, hasta la proxima 🫶❤️
