Called to Serve Our King

Hello!
 
 
Wow I hope everyone enjoyed conference! It was so amazing and very spiritually edifying. I loved all of them but I especially liked Pres Uctdorf's talk about being happy now. a lot of the times as humans we get wrapped up about the finish line and we forget to enjoy the journey. We really have more blessings than we think, we just need to take the time to look for them.
 
 
This week was really great, we finally contacted a referral we received from the english elders. Apparently this man named Alexander who doesnt speak english saw the english elders on their bikes and gave them his name and phone number and left. So the elders gave us his info and we went over there. Turns out that he's a member and his "wife" is not. The only problem is that they're not married and he has a drinking problem that he's really embarrarssed about. But i know that they will come along and will be ready for their baptism by nov. 10.
 
 
Our other baptismal date we have is with Juan. Another cool story. So 6 months ago all of his family got baptized except him and his family. The missionaries who taught them said Juan almost made rude remarks during the lessons and asked far fetched questions. So a few weekends ago we visited their family and Juan was there and he was asking far fetched questions but this time i wouldnt let him. every time he did i told him to listen to the lesson and ask his family those questions later. Juan is very knowledgeable in the bible and finally received his answer that this church is true. tonight we have a fhe with him and his family. im so excited to teach him and his family! I know that the Lord really prepares people.
 
 
I love you all! Gracias por sus oracions,
