1,000 Stairs

Olá todos!!


This week was pretty busy, which was good for a change haha. We taught some great lessons and had some great discussions with amazing people! Doesn't get any better than that.


Yesterday was fast and testimony meeting, and it was AMAZING! Thomas, a guy who the Sister in our ward has been working with, stood up and bore his testimony. He hasn't even been baptized yet, but his testimony was super powerful. He told his conversion story and how he came to know that the Book of Mormon is true. The spirit was strong and Elder Empey and I were blown away.


We've also been able to work more closely with the members in our area. It seems like everyone has a different story, they're all amazing. I love our ward so much. They're all so kind and helpful, it's been fun getting to know them better. 


We've also been able to volunteer at the Warm Hands from Warm Hearts food pantry. It's actually run by all of the different local denominations and churches. Everyone there is a pastor, except for us, the missionaries. It's been fun getting to represent the Church in that sort of scene. The local news actually stopped by while we were working there the other day and they talked to us for a little. Looks like we made a cameo on the news! That was super fun.


I love you all so much! I hope you all have a good week! I love hearing from you all,  keep those emails coming!


Se cuida.
