This week has
been great even though it is super hot and I got really sun burned and I
am really red in the face and arms. I am still living and loving the
mission life, even though I'm tired a lot and always hot and want to
give up, the Lord didn't give up. He taught his gospel to the people even
when they rejected him and crucified him. He did it because he loves
us all and his children and brothers and sisters. Like me, I love the
people here in the Philippines.
I learn so much every day and I get to
meet new people every day and share a message I know to be true that can
change lives like the BAPTISM we had this week (YEAAAAAAA), I can see
how much she has changed, how much this gospel can change the lives of
others. I see how happy she is and how much she loves and knows herself
that this church is true. Her testimony is so strong and she said
when she was baptized she felt clean, like a new person and started a
new life and gave up her old life. Her name is Bella pablo Benito and
she is the most friendliest Nanay ever and she is such a happy person
now. I love sharing the gospel with others and telling others about the
gospel of Jesus Christ.
Our investigators are great and we hopefully
should having two more baptisms in July on the 18th, we will try to do
the best we can and the lord will do the rest for us, and the spirit
will testify to them that what we share is true. The biggest thing that
we can share is our testimony, that is something that know one can
testify against, fight against, or argue with. Our testimony can touch the
hearts of others and the spirit will testify to others of the truth and
that what we share is true. I can see how much the Lord prepares us and he knows when they are
ready and not.
The mission life is not easy, it's a different life and
even though some go home, they deserve the biggest respect, it's not
easy, I have had times that I have said I hate this and I want to go
home, it's not easy and it will never be easy but salvation was never a
cheap experience. The Lord died for us and we need to give ourselves
to him. I don't like when people judge others about when missionaries
come home they shouldn't do that. I would like them to try this. But the
mission life is great and I love the work of the lord and changing lives of others and helping others come unto Christ. The Atonement
of Jesus Christ is for everyone to become clean and become new. We need
his atonement everyday and we are not perfect and god knows that, that's
why he gave his son to us to die for us, so we can come back to him. So
we as members and missionaries need to give a little of our time to him
and we need to be good examples to others and share the gospel with others, something we all know to be true and can change lives.
It
sounds like you guys are having a great week, and you know how I feel
now, really hot and always sweating and tired and hot with lots of
mosquito bites. You guys are getting ready for a really fun trip,
that will be really exciting and fun to see some old history sites. I
hope you are all safe and staying happy and having a fun summer. I miss
you all so much and am praying for you always. Ingat po kayo palagi at
mabuhay sa pilipinas.
Alam ko po na mahal tayo ng
diyos at lahat tayo ng mga anak nd diyos, at gusto ng diyos lahat yung
anak niya makabalik tayo sa kanya. Alam ko na si jesucristo siya ang
ating tagapagligtas natin at namatay po siya para sa atin, lahat tayo
maging malinis yung mga kasalanan natin at maging magligtas tayo. Alam
ko salita ng diyos ang aklat ni mormon at totoo po siya. Alam ko na
nagbayad-sala ni jesucristo para sa mga kasalanan natin at tayo maging
malinis. Alam ko na yung pamilya natin maging walang hanggan siya.
(A short testimony para sa inyo)
