Happy March everyone! Hope you
are all having a great start to the week and the month! I can't believe
February is already over time is going so quick! All good though each day we're
working hard and seeing miracles, nothin’ better than that! The only bad thing
about March is that the heat is back 😭, we be
grindingggg in the tardes out here - lol it's just like summer again, but we
love it!
Highlight of the week was for
sure Mauricio's baptism! We did it on Tuesday and he's such a goat! He was a
reference from the best member-family in the ward and he was so excited to make
a covenant with his Heavenly Father! It's been amazing to see the gospel light
enter in and change his life. I know
he's got so much good ahead of him in his future!
Alright, now for this week's
title… I never thought that I would see
a miracle come from someone getting Covid haha, but that's exactly what
happened this week! We were supposed to have Zone Conference on Friday, this
past week, but Pres. and Hermana Webb got Covid. Don't worry though, they're all good now
haha! But with that, Zone Conference got
moved to this next week on Wednesday. We
didn't think much of it until we met with Lety this week. I think I've
mentioned a little bit about her before, but she's amazing! She's a sweet older
grandma who pretty much calls us her adopted kids haha. She loves the church she's come like 15 times
in the last 5 months. However, she's always been super stubborn about getting
baptized, saying she wouldn't do it until May - for some reason lol. This week
though, as we were talking with her, we mentioned how because of the last-minute
change, Zone Conference and Mission Leadership Conference would be the next
week, meaning all the missionaries who have taught her will be back here in
Aguas on Wednesday. When we mentioned that, we could see the Spirit touch her
heart, and her face light up as she said "Alright, I'll get baptized next
Wednesday then - with everyone there!” It was such a cool miracle and could only have
been God's hand directing His work. The
odds of everyone being back were huge, due to what seemed like a random moment
of sickness and the change in Lety's heart could only have been brought about
by God's perfect timing! I love being a witness of God's great work and
marvelous plan every day!
We saw a ton of other miracles
this week with 7 of our other people on date for baptism! It's been awesome to work with them each this
week, helping them prepare to make covenants with God! It's amazing to see the
willingness people have to sacrifice, learn, and change their lives in order to
come unto the Savior. It's really put into perspective for me truly what I'm
willing to do to follow my Savior and live His gospel! I've come to realize
that as He truly becomes the biggest priority in our lives, all of our trials
begin to fade into the background, and we witness His miracles constantly flow
into our lives! I promise that as you continue to look unto Him in all things, He
will guide you step by step and never let you fall! Have an awesome week and
keep smiling, keep laughing, and keep loving as the Savior would! Nos vemos!
Love, Elder McDonald
Word of the Week: Consejeros
(Counselors) Yeah, we became marriage counselors this week 💀 😂 we didn't
really know what advice to give lol, but luckily the Spirit was able to do His
work and now they're doing good, haha!
Invitation of the Month: PREPARE FOR THE SECOND COMING!! Alright this month leading up to general conference, I want to invite all of us to follow the prophet's most recent invitation and prepare for the Savior's return to the earth! Would you be ready if He were to come tomorrow?
