Elder Parker Moss: 17 Weeks (and counting) in Salinas!

Family and Friends

This week was a great week for us we are seeing a lot of new miracles!!!! This we had a good week of finding!!!! We are finding each and every week and really trying to help them to grow. For this past week we have worked hard to teach people not the lessons but also to help them understand the message.

This week we had the wonderful opportunity to teach a sister and her boyfriend their names are M and N they are really cool, we had the opportunity to teach them the First lesson and then the first part of lesson 2. we have noticed that it is easier for people to understand the Plan of Salvation when we teach up to the Atonement in one lesson and then the other part in the next lesson, so we had the opportunity to teach them and invite them to be baptized. when we invited them they said they were Catholics and didn't need to be baptized but we went back and invited her again and to be baptized and she said yes we are planning to put a date with her this week and to start helping make that change!! She is super cool and we are going to work with him and really help them progress together.

Also this week we had the opportunity to teach M and R they are a Mom and a Son!!! They are super cool. we found M when we were walking and he told us to stop by his house his mom and him wanted to talk to us. So we showed up and we shared the first message with them and they really liked it, the difficult part with them is that they can't read but we are going to help them understand everything we can, they said they like photos so we will be taking a photo book with us when we teach them.

Also we had the opportunity to teach The B Family, they are a great family that are less active. But we went and shared a Mormon message with them it was about Faith. it was such a beautiful video. They are progressing a lot. the Mom and the Kids came to church yesterday again!!!! In the Gospel Principals class the mom was participating she was reading, talking and answering questions it was so cool.

For us we are really seeing how we work hard the Lord will bless us, we are still working on getting baptisms here but I know they will come through all of our hard work.

Today we had a Zone Activity that is why I am writing late. It was super fun we played Minute to Win it games!!! My team lost but we didn't really care it was just super fun to get us all together! Here is a photo of our Zone. We also discussed different Chapters from the Book of Mormon my district had Alma 43! I love Studying the scriptures!!!!

My Zone

I have learned so much as a missionary and as a district leader through a lot of different situations! I have been blessed with such a great mission!!! I have learned that it doesn't matter what the situation or the family but everyone is part of one great big family and that is our Heavenly Fathers family.
