Elder Parker Moss: Week 13 in Ponce 2

Family and Friends

So for this week it wasn't a great week but it wasn't a bad week this transfer we have set new goals and we are really trying to get better at really trying to find those people that want to hear the gospel.

So this week was really just about finding and really focusing on those that will hear us. I have realized that it is super hard to find those people that WANT to listen to our message but I know that nothing is IMPOSSIBLE with God. I have really come to learn the true meaning of having faith that God will help us with everything - all we have to do is our part. Its really exactly what we teach our investigators, we have to do the same thing as they do, we can't really invite people and expect them to do it or change if we aren't willing to do it also.

But with that our two baptismal dates are:

M and S - they are looking really good, it is a little hard with S as she is the only one bringing in money for the family and so she has been working a lot lately and with her job she works for a family and she does house calls to this Elderly sister and she takes care of her, and she has been called into work early so she can take care of her. But they are doing great, this past weekend we had a lesson with them and it just so happened that we were able to use the Stake President with them it was so cool to see him working with them and trying to help them all that he could.

This is really all we have right now, but we are finding more people that are really ready to hear us.

Oh M [different from the M above!] she is difficult - she is reading and praying but the problem is that she really doesn't leave the house she just always has excuses and I really don't know how we can help her with this. We have members calling her and visiting her but she just really doesn't want to do anything outside of the house.

This past weekend we had a Stake Conference it was so good, we had The Temple President here from Santo Domingo and we also had Elder Julio Acosta from the Seventy and the Area Presidency it was so good they talked a lot about Eternal Marriage and the Blessings in the temple!!!!!

After the Conference on Sunday we had M [first M from above] at the Conference and he had the wonderful opportunity to talk to President Flake (Temple President) President Boucher and Elder Acosta!!!!!!! It was so cool I just felt so blessed to be there present for those conversations!!!!!

I love this Gospel so much and grateful for all of you guys!!!!!!

I miss you so much and can't wait to hear from you next week!!!!

Con Amor
