4/12/10 - Letter to the World


Hello Everybody!
Ok...so first of all, I´m a horrible brother/grandson. I got distracted last week when I was online, and forgot to wish Cody a happy 19th Birthday, and Grandpa Rath a Happy 68th! Happy Belated Birthday!!

This has been a great week! Patricia Ximena Amorin Marin was baptized on Sat. Apr 10, 2010 and confirmed yesterday.

We´ve been having a lot of success in finding people this week through our members. Our assistant ward mission leader brought 3 non-members to Ximena´s baptism, and after the service, we had a short lesson with the three of them!
Every Tuesday, for mutual, the young men play soccer. Elder Martinez and I have a ward mission correlation meeting Tuesday nights at 8, so we decided to be at the church at 7 to teach Ximena, and also see if any non-members were playing soccer. A recent convert had brought a friend to play, so we went inside with him to see if he would be interested in listening - we taught him, were able to set up an appointment for Thursday, and went Thursday to teach him, and left him with a Book of Mormon. He lives on the same property as a couple who are ward missionaries. They had given away a Book of Mormon to a man named Sergio, who is renting a room from them, and he arrived while we were there, and we were able to have another lesson with him!
Nidia Portillo came to Ximena´s baptism also (the first baptism that she´d seen) and got rid of the doubts that she had!!
The Amorin family is progressing (the parents), but are having some problems with where they are renting right now...we´ll have to see if they can stay in the ward, or end up moving out of it.

The amount of miracles that I´ve been able to see this week is impressive. It seemed like almost wherever we went, we were able to teach and find new investigators.

I Know that our Heavenly Father is a God of miracles - That He always has been, and that He always will be. I know that our Heavenly Father sent Jesus Christ to die for us, to suffer for everything we will ever have to go through, and to pay the price for our sins!

I Love you all, and hope you have a great week!

Love,

Elder Denton
