Well hi, so
yes yesterday was Presidents day and today is transfers conference. So I get to
write you. Luckily a big storm didn't hit today so the library has been open.
This winter has been pretty harsh.. and I get to walk in it everyday. It is
actually really fun except for when It is cold. but I am usually able to where
enough clothes to be warm and we just have to visit lots of people so we can be
indoors :) but hey I think that it is supposed to warm up this week!
Oh
boy its a boy!! I knew it ;) that is awesome. Felizidades! so
when are the due dates for the new children in the family? I forgot.. I am
sorry. is it in the summer? That is pretty great news :) the second best news
of the day is that I am NOT getting transferred!!! I am soo happy because
I absolutely love Elizabeth and the people here. I was so nervous that I would
be changed but all went well and me quedo aqui. I wish you all could see
Elizabeth NJ, it is just a place that is one of a kind, I have never met so
many different people in my life and I love them. I especially am thankful for
the people we are working with and the trust and friendship that we have with
them. Nora, Daniel, Angel, Marissa Lenzay and Naisha. and we are on a hunt to
find more of those who are prepared. Elder Waite and I are staying together and
we are excited and ready to work miracles in Elizabeth and put our trust in
God.
So yes Nora
was married and then baptized!! It was a great experience. There was a sweet
spirit there the entire night and it was just a great experience. They are so
happy with the change the Gospel has made in their life and they are determined
to Endure to the end. We are still working with Daniel and he is getting there,
he just wont come to church so we are doing all we can to meet with him more
and help him be strengthened through the Book of Mormon so that he with
increase his faith and to church and be baptized. So that is our plan.
As for
Marissa, Lenzay, Naisha and the gang. They are getting there, Miracles are
happening in their lives. The twins, Lenzay and Naisha are preparing to be
baptized this week and are excited to do so. Marissa on the other hand said no
to be baptized this week. She wants to be baptized but she still has some
concerns holding her back. Last night we had a important lesson with her and
learned some more doubts, the answer was family prayer. Also this week we are
going to focus more on the Book of Mormon and help here strengthen her faith in
Jesus Christ and resolve concerns. I studied a lot about that this morning. One
of the best quotes in Preach My Gospel says "The Book of Mormon combined
with the spirit is your most powerful tool in conversion" We strongly
believe that miracles will happen in her and all of our investigators lives as
they read the Book of Mormon. That is the same with all of us, we want to be
converted to the Gospel. Read the Book of Mormon. It is the best book ever!
President issued another challenge for us to read it in 90 days and man I love
it. Even when I am reading about wars and things that don't seem to be
super spiritual I can feel the power of the Book of Mormon and I know it is the
words of Christ.
Well that
is the summary of the week I will let you all go
Love Elder
Boyer
