Dear Familia,
So im in my new area with my new comp. My area is Cipolletti and my comp is Elder Candia from Concepcion Chile. This area is incredible! The ward is the biggest ward I have been in in my entire mission. I had the chance to give my testimony the Sacrament Meeting and I almost fell over in astonishment see how many members there were. Good stuff! Elder Candia is to darn funny. He is always happy which makes everyday fun. We are working and seeing so many blessings from the Lord.
I wanted to share some of the miracles that we have seen just in this week. First is Gamaliel. Gamaliel is one of our investigadores that is preparing himself to be bapitzed. we met him for the first time this week because the sister missionaries met him first and told us to pass by. As we talked with Gamaliel we learned that he only has 3 to 12 months to live becuasee of the cancer he has. We invited him to follow Jesus Christ and prepare himself to be baptized and he said after more than 50 years of life he has a lot of burdons he wants to get rid of and accepted the invitation. The Second miracle was when Elder Candia and I went to the house of a less active and part member family. the husband is less active and the wife has never really wanted to hear from the missionaries. While in the house we started to talk about the importance of the family and Heavenly Fathers plan for us which invited the spirit in our conversation. Then, out of no where, the husband said ¨i want you to teach my daughter¨, who also is not a member. Then he began to tell us that we would teach his daughter and that while we taught her, him and wife would listen so that they could also learn. MILAGROS!!!! The third miracle happened as Elder Candia and I were contacting and looking for people to teach and all of a sudden a man called us over. As we walked over Elder Candia said ¨this is either going to be really good or really bad¨ (he said it in spanish of course jaja). Good news!!!!....It turned out to be really good! This man began to tell us about his life and that he has never been able to find true peace or happiness and that he new and felt that we could help him. we shared a little of our purpose and then we came to find out he has some friends that are members of the church and told us that he knows what we teach is true. Elder Candia and I couldnt believe and still cant believe and these miracles. Heavenly Father is preparing the way. He is hastening His work daily. I know this work is true. I dont know what I have done to receive these blessings but I am so greatful. I dont know why I was so blessed to have received this gospel early in my life by I am eternaly greatful.
I know this church is true. I love my Savior so very much and I testify of His power and authority. I testify His love and goodness. Oh how great it is to know that Jesus Christ loves us all so much.
Have a great week! I love you all
