Welcome to the area Escuadron 201, where everyone wants to hear the Gospel of Jesus Christ and Elder WIlson is happy!!!
Escuadron is amazing! I cant believe how much success weve been having! I thought for sure I would destroy the area, but we already put 4 baptismal dates and found 11 new investigators! That never happened in Nativitas!!!
This week my prayers were answered, literally in the moment I said them! I said a prayer with my companion, Elder Corral to find another new investigator, and the exact second I said amen, Ana sat down next to us and began to say that she lost contact with the church and was dying to reconnect herself to the Gospel. She asked for a Book of Mormon, pamphlets and agreed to go to Church this week!
We also prayed for a person to baptize, and the phone buzzed with a reference to Guadalupe, a lady who has been reading the Ensigns for more than 6 months now, and wants her and her 3 daughters to be baptized!!
We also arrived at the Church building for a missionary correlation with the Bishop and instead of having a meeting, we learned of a young man who wants to baptized his soon to be wife, Wendy, and she wants to too!
There are so many blessings and miracles occuring in this area and I am so grateful for all of them!
Rio Churubusco is in our area, its a huge highway. As a result, I am super happy cause there are always amazing motorcycles that fly by. Ive seen Hondas, Yamahas, Italikas, Kawasakis, Triumphs, Fiats, Suzukis, Pulsars, KTWs, and more! AND THEYRE ALL SO FAST! I love motorcycles.
My house in Escuadron doesnt really have hot water, or running water, for that matter. We also have to wash clothes by hand so Im really learning a lot here about how to live humbly. I actually really like it, it makes me feel like Im finally in the mission field haha!
I also got to talk to my family which was a nice little bonus this week. But I forgot to say Happy Mothers Day to my mom, so Ill do it here. Happy Mothers Day Mom! I love you so much!
For a nice mothers day scripture, look up Alma 56:47-48.
Other cool things:
1. I ate a hamburger and fries for 2 dollars
2. Stay tuned for next week cause I have nothing....
Spiritual thought:
"There hath no temptation seized upon you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that which ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it." 1 Corinthians 10:13.
No one has sinned tomorrow. Trust in God, find your escape, and bear your afflictions with faith. God is faithful.
