General Conference was incredible! I loved it! I know that the things
that were said were answers to many prayers around the world.
These past few weeks, we have been working a whole lot with the family
of Claudia. She is progressing inredibly quickly, as well as her 8
year old daughter. Claudia is showing huge leaps of faith because
since the day we taught the commandment of the Word of Wisdom, she
hasn´t smoked or dranken coffee! When I asked her how she felt about
her baptismal date on the 15th of this month, she said, ¨To answer
that question, I completely dropped coffee and cigerettes. I want to
get baptized!¨ She has really opened up to us about how we appeared at
her door at a key moment in her life.
Something that really stuck out to me from conference was when Elder
Holland spoke of the mercy of God in his talk, among other things. He
said, with a little bit of emotion, that one of the greatest things
that Our Heavenly Father enjoys most about being a God is that he can
show mercy. He can also continue to give opportunities to those that
feel like they dont deserve another one. It is so true!
I love yall! Im looking forward to being able to go into real detail
about all my experiences here in a few weeks. So many wonderful things
have happend!
