Missionaries

This was another great week! The family that we found and are teaching are amazing! It is a husband and wife about sixty years old, named Juan and Antonia. They are so amazing and so prepared by the Lord! It is amazing to see the Lord´s hand in the lifes of the people here. The first time we taught them and shared the story of Joseph Smith they were both crying at the end and told us that they have been asking their whole lives which church is true and they feel like they finally found their answer! And now everytime we go over they get tears in their eyes and tell us that when we talk about the Gospel that they can really feel something different, a different spirit and that they can tell that it is different. They also came to church this Sunday and loved it!! I know that they are going to get baptized really soon!

 

 It is amazing to be a missionary and really see how this gospel and our Savior can change the lives of people. And i am so greatful for this oportunity to be an instrument in the hands of our Savior.The experiences and the spirit that is felt everyday by a missionary is amazing. Yes sometimes it is hard but I love something that Elder Holland said ¨why would we expect it to be easy for us when it was never easy for Him(Christ). Salvation was never easy. Salvation is not a cheap experience.¨It is so true! The mission is hard. But the joy and happiness and the spirit you can feel with those special moments is worth everything. We are lucky to be missionaries in this day and age and see how the Lord really is Hastening His work. I love the mission!

Things are great! I hope all is well with all of you back home. Remember our Savior. Never stop praying. And have a great week!!

Love,

Elder Stuart
