Week 28: Dos experiencias Espituales

Hey guys! Sorry I am really behind on emails so I am going to make this email short. This week I would just like to share two spiritual experiences that I had that really impacted my testimony so I would like to share them. One of the most amazing things that happened was when we were able to go to the temple with our converts. I remembered when we started to teach them and how different they were. I had the privilege of explaining what we were exactly going to do in the temple and how we were able to do work for those who have died. When we were in the temple, I felt really safe and at home. I used to go to the temple a lot and it was a feeling that I really missed. It really gave me the courage to keep going on my mission and that everything was going to be ok. Also, I was seeing Hermana Manuela and Hermano Mario being baptized and it hit me so hard that they were in the temple with us. We were just teaching them and now they are members of the church and were being baptized for other people to recieve the gospel. I almost started to get emotional because of these strong emotions that I felt with them and personally the things I felt. Its pretty amazing to see changes in people and I am so thankful for them. Also we had an experience with one man named Jorge. Jorge is new and we have had two lessons with him. This last time we taught him about the Book of Mormon and I felt the spirit so differently with him. He is very interesting and always has questions with us. We knock on a lot of doors and we talk in a lot of houses but I felt something really different with him. I felt at peace. It struck me pretty hard of how much Heavenly Father loves him. I felt a small part of the love that God has for that man. I bore testimony to him of the love that God has for him and he is a child of God. It really hit me so hard. We left him a Book of Mormon so that he could read it and we are going to visit him today and see how it went. I hope he will know of the truthfulness of it.

Giddy up,
