HELLO FAMILY!!
Hey so first off i should get the packages this week and i will take some pictures so dont worry ;) hahaha. But sounds like the normal year is starting up again with school GOOD LUCK TO ALL. Better get good grades this year because ill be home next year haha. But interesting with the ward changes. They will all do great. How are you with your calling mom?
Sounds like you had a good week!! youre right it goes good sometimes and then its hard. But dont worry i got some solid experience now and im feeling pretty good. I love your experience dad!! Thats sick! honestly thats amazing and I love that you focused on the people and not just on them being baptized. Thats super cool.
Thats honestly how i feel with the Figaroa family. Satan is working real real hard with them. Theyhad a tough trial this week. The daughter is kind of going behind the parents backs and the mom still feels really sick but we went to their house on thursday and they were all crying and we didnt expect it at all. we had just planned to put their baptismal date but instead we talked about the atonement and it was super powerful. the daughter felt really bad and yea but I shared the scripture from Isaiah 1:18 that says even if our sins are like scarlet they can become white as snow. The mom couldnt go to church this week because she was sick and the dad worked but the kids went anyways and we are helping to turn things around. Maybe this family wont get baptized while im here but they have progressed so much and we are helping them. We think the daughter could be a missionary someday.
Maryanna went to church again with her mom and they are progressing as well!!! President came to Casas Grandes this week and he commented to us that he is pleased because before we got to Alamedas the area and the ward were a wreck and we are turning it around little by little but we are staying humble and working hard. This week i go to Juarez again for the training leader meeting and then we have the stake conference this saturday and sunday which i get to translate. That should be interesting. haha but Elder De Hoyos from the 70 is coming down because we are getting a new Stake president...so we will see what happens.
So my spiritual thought. Well with some scriptures and quotes and thinking and counsel from president i studied alot about love and here is some stuff i got.
1.Love is the measure of our faith, inspiration, obedience and discipleship.
2. Love is the great commandment and should be the central point of all we do in the family, callings in the church and they way in which we gain things in life.
3. .Love is the healing balm that repairs personal and family diferences and the tie that unites families and nations.
4 God doesnt need us to love Him but oh how we need to love God!
5what we love determines what we think and do. What we think and do determines who we are and who we will come to be.
6. Love has been the source of the most sublime happiness and the heaviest of burdens.
7 Aunque estemos incompletos, Dios nos ama completamente; aunque seamos
imperfectos, Él nos ama perfectamente; aunque nos sintamos perdidos y sin brújula ni
guía, el amor de Dios nos rodea por completo. Even though we are incomplete, God loves us completely and fully. Even though we are imperfect He loves us perfectly. Even if we feel lost and without compass or guides the love of God surrounds us completely.
8.He loves each one of us even the imperfect, rejected, sorrowful and broken.
9the love of God is so big and grand that it includes the prideful, egoistics the arrogant and wicked.
10ur Heavenly Father is infinitely compassionate and desries us to get close to Him so that He can draw near to us.
11. “ (1 Juan 5:3)
12. (1 Juan 2:4)
13. The divine love of God converts ordinary acts into extraordinary service.
14. El amor divino es la fuerza que transforma las palabras sencillas en escritura sagrada. Divine love is the force that transforms simple words into sacred scripture.
15. El amor divino es el factor que transforma el cumplimiento renuente de los
mandamientos de Dios en una bendita dedicación y consagración. Divine love is the factor that transforms the fufillment of the commandments into dedication and consagration. It guides us. It fills us. and should be shown through word and acts.
Well thats my letter this week!!!! Love you TEAM MEDEIROS HARD IN THE PAINT!!!
