Family and Friends
WHAT
a week!!!!! Elder Robinson and I are seeing some really big changes
here in Ponce but really in ourselves!!!!! We are working and really
trying to find our lost brothers and sisters. Elder Robinson has given
us some great things to work on this week!!! He is really helping me to
grow as a missionary!!! He has really stepped me up to work more with
Members and just have the courage to ask them to help us. This week it
really showed how we did with those member present lessons.
To
our investigators this week was a little sad for us we had to change
almost half of our dates but thats because we really want to make sure
that our investigators are ready. Also they have to get married and the
paperwork is such a long process and it costs a little money so they
have to work on that.
M
and S - we are having a little trouble getting them to come to
church. They say they are coming everytime that we invite them and we
call them again on Saturday night to confirm with them and they say yes
and then they don't show up on Sunday we have taught them the Dia de
Reposo and they understand it they are just having a hard as S is a
nurse and makes house calls and M won't come unless she comes with him
because they want to do everything as a couple. They are doing really
good and living the Word of Wisdom and all the other commandments and
are just working on this last one La Ley de Castidad. They are doing
really good and know this is true and want to be baptized but they just
have to wait to get married. Our new date for them is on the 21 of
November so that they can get married on the 20th.
P
and L and their family they are doing good we had the chance to go
over to their house last night with a member and they had asked us for a
blessing and so we gave them both blessings. P and L are both
less active members and they have 2 kids: L (the son) and C. they both want
to be baptized but the problem is, is that L (the son) is living with his girl
friend and they have to get married. her name is D and we are
teaching her as well. They are doing good they are reading and praying
everyday but the only problem with them is that it is hard to get them
to church as well, they also commit to coming each week but never show
up we ask them what happend and they always have an excuse but we are
still working with them rthe three dates in this family are all for the
21 of November as well and D and L (the son) are going to get married the
same day as M and S. The ward wants to do a big activity for
them.
Lastly
we have M she is older and was a contact in the trio she is
doing great and she wants to get baptized she knows this is true and she
feels that this church is the only true church but with her is she is
smoking and she doesn't come to church. She has a 15 year old son and he
is smoking and drinking so she really can't leave him alone or he will
get in trouble and her husband is always busy and her other son doesn't
really help her, so she is always at home watching him. We have tried
talking to the kid but he doesn't want anything to do with us and he
won't come to church with her. So we are really struggling with her on
that subject but she knows this is true and has recieved an answer about
all of this.
Our
other baptismal date is F - he is a new investigator as of yesterday
and we were there to find the mom she is a less active and we are trying
to get her to come back to church and her son was sitting in the Lesson
and he asked us how did you guys find out your answer that The Book of
Mormon is true and Joesph Smith was a true Prophet. We explained to him
that we had to pray to know and explained that to him and then Elder
Robinson invited him to be baptized and he said yes and then set a date
with also. After Elder Robinson gave them a chapter to read and invited
them to read and pray as a family.
This
is our week in a little bit we are seeing a lot of great things
happening here in Ponce. Elder Robinson is really helping everyone out
here and really knows what he is doing!!!!!
Con Amor
Elder Moss
