First, I pray that you guys had a great week
and that it was filled with great things. Always remember you are all children
of a Father in Heaven and you all have such an important purpose here in this
world!
First
off, this week we had interviews which are always awesome. It so great talking
face to face with President and hearing the advice he has. Also, I got packages
this week and that has a fun story to go with it. So first off, they forgot to
bring the packages to our interviews like they usually do. So, Sister McArthur
(president’s wife) asked me if Elder Fuentes and I could travel to pick them up
the next day where they were having interviews.
So, the next day we got up and headed by the
metro train to go get them. Everything went smooth until we were on our way
back waiting for the train. We had to take a suitcase because we picked up the
packages for the Zone and there where about 10 packages and just the 2 of us.
So, while
we were waiting for the train to come I guess 2 missionaries with a suitcase
looked suspicious because 2 police officers ended up coming up to us and asking
what we had in the boxes and the suit case. It was an interesting 5 mins but it
all ended up fine and they were really nice at the end after they figured out we
were just missionaries and that the boxes where from our families. We got all
the boxes home safe and to their owners also, so everyone was happy!
So,
another awesome thing that happened this week was that Lizbeth got the gift of
the Holy Ghost! It was such a special experience to see how happy she was when
she received her blessing and the spirit was so strong. We also got to meet her
family this week and they are awesome just like her! They accepted a pamphlet
of one of the lessons we teach and then her little sisters that are 11 and 12
went to church with her this last Sunday!
We are
looking forward to the opportunity to visiting with them this week and we are
so happy that Lizbeth is starting to see the Savior work with her family
because that was always something she wanted was for her family to accept the
gospel. We shared with her that by her example they were going to have a change
of heart and now we can all see it happening it is truly amazing!
Well lastly, I also hit my 1 year mark this last week! So, this past year has
been the greatest of my life and I have changed in so many ways. I am truly
thankful for the opportunity I have had this last year to be able to learn
everything I have. I know though that this up and coming year will be the same.
I will have the opportunity to grow and learn so much and I know it will change
my life also.
I know
our Father in Heaven loves each and every one of us! I know with all my heart
we all have a very big purpose here and that if we ask our Father in Heaven he
will help us find the pathway we need to be on.
I invite
all of you this week to pray. Pray for answers but make sure you pray with all
your heart and then do your part! God loves you all I know he does I can feel
his love for you all.
I love
you all also and I hope you guys have an amazing, special week!
with
love Elder Davis
