Como andan queridos?!!
This week was different!! It was good because I was starting
to feel like I was in the movie Groundhog Day haha. This week I spent 3 days in the city of Santa
Fe for divisiones. It was fun being in the city. There
are crazy taxi drivers and all you here is them honking their horns.
No patience or mercy with driving in the city. I went on divisions with
my zone leader Elder Johnson. The kid is so funny, I was just dying laughing
the whole time. I showed him a picture of my family and he wants to take
Brittney on a date. Uh oh, watch out Britt. It was fun working in Santa
Fe. There is a lot more poverty and a Little dangerous in this área
because of it. I learned a lot from Elder Johnson. The Mission
lacks priesthood holders. We need to have quality conversions here.
The misión exploded a few years ago with lots of baptisms, but the problema is
that they are all less actives now. Santa Fe needs more people to lead
the área so that they can have progression. I´m going to focus more in
this. After divisiones Elder Clayton and I visited a less active in the
hospital in Santa fe. I just feel bad for people here. It was like
a really old dirty high school with flies everywhere! Nasty. They made us
wear face masks and vests to go and visit the less active sister. She has
been less active for years, but is starting to rely more on god because she is
in bad condition. I can’t remember which Scripture but in Helaman it says
that the Lord gives us afflictions and trials in this life so that we will
remember Him. And He can help us through all trials! Our
investigators are in a slump right now. Jessica and Sebastian have
tons of questions but they haven’t been praying for answers. You have to
pray people! We had a special conference this week at our stake center
where we had a broadcast from Elder Hales and Elder Cook. Words of
prophets are powerful. The main theme was missionary work! The
greatest work in the world! And the Lord is calling for more troops! One
of our investigators named Nicholas came. He is a stud! He is 22 and just
wants to follow Christ. He is very strong in another church but I´m glad
he got to hear the words of Christ´s Apostles.
The church is true everyone! I’ll say it every week haha I
know Christ lives and that he can raise us up when we fall. He is always with
us.
Thanks you all for the birthday wishes! Party on! And thank
you grandmas and grandpas for the letters! I love them! Have an amazing
week. Love you all.
un abrazo fuerte,
Elder Maynard
