Dear family and blog-
Greetings from Antigua! I am so excited for you to see this place and meet these people, it just keeps getting better and better! This week was an awesome week for us! Lets be honest, every week is great on the mission, but this week we had some really powerful lessons with investigators. It was what I like to call a free flowing week....with tears. My testimony this week grew of how important inspired questions are in lessons. I dont know why but every time we asked a really inspired question, the investigator started to cry. Two of these experiences have been my favorites in this area. Irma, the first experience, was a widow who lives with her daughter in that new area I told you about. We were just talking, everything tranquilo when her daughter wanted us to share something with her from the Book of Mormon, if we we going to leave it with her...she was kind of apprehensive. But I said, it would be better if you asked us a question of the soul that either of you have so we can answer if from the Book of Mormon....then the tears started coming. The mom who showed no sign of being emotional before, started to cry and cry and just told us, ¨all i want to know is where my two sons are that died and if they are ok.¨ ha! Thank you Alma 40. Immediately the spirit testified to all of us that this scripture was true after her daughter read it to all of us. This truly was a remarkable experience and we hope to see this family progress so she can be with her two sons again and her husband. The other experience was with a 48 year old man who has been drinking since he was 8 years old. He started to cry when we testified of the Atonement of Jesus Christ and how grateful he was for the help of this member family and us and Jesus. It was incredible..he now has a fecha meta for the 31st of this month if he stops drinking. Pray for tino!
If I could talk about anything in my homecoming talk it would be the power of the Book of Mormon..this book...incredible. So stk pres if you want to mention this to Bish Gessel that would be great...hahaha. Im not trunky I promise! But you know how I like to plan ahead.
We also got to do divisions with the Mission Presidents daughter and that was really fun. It has been raining cats and dogs in the afternoons, we love it.
