It sounds like all is well back in Utah and you are all enjoying your summer!
Milagro de la semana--Lucas! (Miracle of the Week)
Saturday morning we are going to houses of old investigators. We stopped at a house and they weren't home. We saw a man across the stree-the second time we had seen this man- and we decided that we were going to talk to him. His name is Lucas. We were talking and talking to him. He is super bueno! The first thing he said to us was "you guys are representatives of Jesus Christ, correct?" I believe he is one prepared by the Lord. He told us that he could tell that we had something special, a certain light about us. (That made me super happy that the people can recognize that we are representatives of Christ). We shared a scripture and left him with a pamphlet of the restauración. We also invited him to come to church with us the next morning. He said that he was going to come and we should call him in the morning before church. Sunday morning came around and we called Lucas to verfity his plans to come to church. He said he was going to come and we told him we would wait for him in the doors of the church. Guess what......He came to church! He really liked church. In gospel principles we were talking about keeping the Sabbath day holy. We were talking about how in the Old Testament the Sabbath day was Saturday, but it was changed to Sunday because Jesucristo was resurrected Sunday Morning. Lucas made the comment that the Sabbath day is for each of us to be resurrected spiritually and that is why we need to go to church, etc. He also made the comment that in the church he felt really happy and he felt "lleno" (full) spiritually. I am really excited to visit him this week and help him come unto Christ. I am extremely grateful for the tender mercies of the Lord in my life cada dia. I know that the Lord puts us where we need to be in the exact moment we need to be there.
Wanna know something crazy and awesome? Every time the dogs start to chase us on our bikes my companion starts to sing a hymn and they stop chasing and barking at us. How cool! I thought I would try it and guess what it worked for me too! The power of the Lord is amazing!
We have an investigator who is blind, his name is Abel. He is really religious and we are working with him to help him understand that this is the only true Church of Christ.
We are visiting the recent converts and they are all doing super awesome! We are visiting the menos activos in our area and some are progressing well and others not as much. Anahi came to church again this Sunday!
