Become as a Little Child


¡Hola Familia!
Well it has been a most wonderful week, and as the title suggests we´ve made lots of little friends. I´ve been reminded more than ever of where it talks in the scriptures about the commandment to become as a little child - humble, meek, easily persuaded. I´ve decided that kids are the best investigators because they have those attributes! If you remember in the email from last week, we met a lady and began teaching the family. The mom, K, has been really hard to find and we havent had much contact with her. But her two kids, K and N (13 and 11 years) plus their cousins A and J (10 and 6 years) have become our buddies. Tuesday Hermana Belogini, the most awesome hermana ever in our ward had us all over for a family home evening and we watched Finding Faith in Christ. Wednesday we had our first english class, and had an awesome turnout! A ton of kids between 9 and 14 years old, plus Juan and a few hermanos. It was  alot of fun if a bit unorganized. I taught with Elder Bench while my comp was one of the students. :) 

After the english class we had a great noche de hoger, with lots of investigators and the ward missionaries. It was pretty low key compared to what I´ve done in the past - just a movie haha. But I love it! 

So this week we´ll be preparing J and K for their upcoming baptisms this saturday! We are praying all will go well and they will make it there. J went to an activity the other day with a group of single adults from the ward and loved it. He already has lots of friends. :) 

Sunday we were able to bring a ton of investigators to church and it was so awesome! The kids made lots of friends and loved it. The Lord sure is blessing us a whole lot! 

This is the Lord´s work. He is guiding us to those who are prepared. I love bearing testimony of the truth, and I have discovered a passion for teaching! There is nothing like it.
love you all,
Hermana Nelson
