Week 35 - Time is flying

Hey there family!

This week was pretty good. What we really realized this week is that we need to find more people to teach.

There's this phrase in Preach my Gospel that says that nothing in the work of salvation happens until after you find a person to teach. Something like that. It's so true though!

This week one of our investigators Frida was supposed to get baptized, but at the last minute she told us she had her doubts still. Basically "we" knew she was ready, but she didn't "feel" it. So this week we went and visited her everyday to help her out. We didn't see too much progress, but we saw something start flickering. We were praying and praying for her. Then, on Sunday she told us that she's sure of everything now and wants to get baptized! Prayers really do get answered! She still is worried about what her family might say, but we're going to help her with that today!

What else happened this week?? Hmmmm... Not sure. The weeks go by like days. And the days are like hours. Its super fast paced because there's always work to be done.

We're really going to focus this week on baptizing every week because this is what The Lord has commanded us to do here in Mexico. It's very possible too. Just takes a lot of work. If there's one thing that I've learned here, it's how to work.

I love the Gospel and love my Savior who made it possible for me to return to live with our Heavenly Father. I know that Joseph Smith was a prophet of God and that he helped our Father in Heaven restore the Gospel again to the earth. When I talk to other people about their beliefs, it just doesn't make any sense. I'm so thankful for a knowledge of who I am, who God is, and the purpose to almost everything in this life.

It cooled down a little bit here, but it's still hot. You can't trust the temperature either because it's even warmer in the houses. They're like little ovens.

Anyways, love you family, and I exhort you all to do as Paul said and work out your own salvation.

Love,
Elder Morgan
