Hey Everyone!
Wow, how is everyone doing after conference? I was
looking forward to it for a long time and I can´t believe that it has already
come and gone. But it was awesome. I just want you all to know how
much I love my family. I LOVE YOU GUYS! All the best buddies, crazy
babies, der, britt, mom and dad. I love you. I loved how it talked
about the family and I have the best family in the world and for all eternity,
all thanks to our greatest older brother, Jesus Christ. I love to hear
the testimonies of the Atonement. Christ loves every single one of us and
suffered for each and every one of us individually. He cares for us and
knows us by name. I am thankful for the Priesthood and the restoration of
the everlasting gospel. I am thankful for the sacred calling that I hold
now as a missionary to share this message. I can do all things through
Christ who strengthens me.
Fransisco is one of three men here in Victoria that attended
all 5 general conference sessions. It was him, one brother from the ward,
and the stake patriarch. That is good company. We didn´t pick him
up once, only invited him and he came. He made the 25 min walk by himself
about 8 times, coming and going. He smiled as he walked around the church
and passed out little candies to everyone. He joked and laughed as he
drank mate with the members. And he always told me that he was feeling
good. He was happy. It looks like he has found a new home. He has
changed a lot since we first met him. He has a brighter glow in his face,
he is no longer depressed and lonely, but rather he is happy and has a new big
family. Most importantly, he has found his Savior, Jesus Christ.
Fransisco passed his baptism interview and will be baptized on Saturday the 9th
of April, 2016 at 7:00 pm Argentina time. I would invite you all to come
but I am pretty sure that would be against mission rules. What a bummer.
Keep studying the words of the living prophets, keep praying,
keep believing, keep moving forward with faith. Miracles always come, they
always do. I know the church is true. I know that Christ
lives. I love you all.
