Hola a todos!

This was an eventful week. To start off, we visited members to find out how they were doing.  As a missionary, one of our responsibilities is to involve the members in the work.  By doing so it’s so much easier to find and bring those who are looking for the Gospel of Jesus Christ to His Church. Member involvement is a big part of our work.

This past week we went to visit the Ramos family. They own a store called Desert Discounts. I have to say that these people put in a lot of work! I have never seen such good people who besides working hard every day, set time aside for the Lord. When we set time aside for the Lord, we receive blessings upon blessings of happiness, and joy.

Pedro, a young man in the Camelback Branch, took my companion and I out to lunch to Panera Bread. Man ohh man! The food was good but slightly on the expensive side. That shows to me that members are looking out for missionaries by helping them. We are grateful for the love and care we receive in this area.

Every Sunday my companion plays the piano at church.  As missionaries we serve in different capacities.  Sharing our talents unites us with others and blesses our lives.  There is this kid named Eli at church and he is such a cool kid! He looks up to me and each Sunday he says: “Can I have your name tag? I want to be a Missionary!” Isn’t that just so cool! This kid wants to be a missionary just like me. It makes me realize how important it is to be a good example. Every time I walk into Primary—the children’s organization of the church—he runs right over to sit next to me. I can just picture Jesus Christ doing that to all of us— just running over to sit next to us. The Savior loves us with pure love.

I appreciate the cards and notes I have received. You guys are the best. Now that I am on my 8th month in the mission, I am starting to figure out how to do missionary work the best way. What’s awesome is that we are now having more people interested in hearing the messages we have to share. Of course, there are those who don’t have time for us, but we continue with faith putting the Lord first.

“If all men had been, and were, and would ever be, like unto Moroni, behold, the very powers of Hell would have been shaken forever”.  Let us all try to be like Moroni. I encourage and invite each of you to reach out to the Missionaries in your area and go on visits with them. Trust me, if we work together on this, the very powers of Hell will indeed be Shaken forever. TEAM WORK MAKES THE DREAM WORK!!

Thanks for the love and support y’all! I love all the updates in the letters I receive. Continue sending me letters! Farewell and may God be with you all until next week 🙏 ❤️ ✌️ 😎
