GENERAL CONFERENCE!!!! Wow. That was such a powerful session. I can't believe how many apostles testified that Thomas S Monson is the living prophet. I can't wait to share this gospel. Honestly the talk that hit me the hardest was Tad R. Callister's. That was such a powerful testimony of the divine calling of parents. I love my mom and my dad so much!! So this week has been a little rough. My companion has been struggling a little bit. But on Monday I fasted for him and get this. Breakfast is usually awful. They served French Toast. So I was pretty bummed about that. THEN for lunch they served burgers and curly fries. Like what's going on?? Then the whole time he was telling how delicious the food was. I wanted to put him in his place, but esta bien! I definitely felt very blessed after my fast. So, Uncle Jerry, I shined my companions shoes this week. hahaha But all in all, it was a good week. The time seems to be going by so fast. Crazy to think I'm halfway done with the CCM. Everything is kind of just a blur! But yesterday we got to teach an actual investigator. She has had no experience with the church and she was just curious what the CCM was. So she asked for a tour and got lessons! We taught her about prayer and how she can feel the spirit and the Lord's love as she prays. She kind of brushed it off and I stopped her and testified to her right there, and promised that if she prayed with faith in God, and with sincere intent, she would feel the spirit. That kind of stopped her in her tracks. (She's probably around dad's age) Then we challenged her to say the pray at the end of the lesson. She said maybe. So we taught her how to pray, what to say. The end of the lesson came and we asked her again and she said yes. Her prayer was very simple, but when she finished she said she felt something in her heart. She felt joy. We told her it was the spirit. She said she hasn't felt the spirit this much in her life. It was the most spiritual moment yet. I absolutely love this gospel and can't wait to share my testimony with the people of Honduras!!
Love you all. and thank you for your prayer.
P.S. So a district in our zone left on tuesday and it was pretty rough. We had all become such good friends. Here are some pictures with them! The guy with the red hair is Elder Garbero and he sings just like an angel. He has a scholarship to sing at BYU. They are all serving in Fresno!
