These past two weeks have been amazing and packed full of spiritual moments. The best of all is that for two weeks now we have had 6 investigators attend church with us... thats just mind blowing to me!! We found an amazing family who lived in Utah for 15 years but never went to church or got baptized and then they moved back to Buenos Aires to be with their family and felt like they had hit a wall. Nati ( the mom) explains that in Utah they were living the Mormon life and didn't even know it. When they got to Buenos Aires she says that they were just culture shocked. They couldn't stand that groups of people would be out in the street drinking and that everywhere they went people were smoking and they could just let their kids play outside anymore because it's not safe. Well two missionaries were walking by one day and saw their licenses plates and ran up and knocked on the door and wanted to talk to the owner of the car (they were utah plates). Well the family Palavencino started listening to the missionaries and prayed to know if their message was true. Nati and Pablo have very strong testimonies and know that God has restored his gospel here upon the earth once again!!! They moved here a few weeks ago and have been building their house from the ground up literally. They don't have anything not even a house or furniture. They are super super humble people and so warm hearted and full of love. We´re helping they spiritual as well as temporally at this point. A few times a week we go over and help them out. We´re super excited because the Lord has been blessing them in sooo many ways and even though they have nothing they are always happy and counting their blessings. They know that they have to work for what they want and that as long as they have their family and Heavenly Father everything will be alright.
I love this work and I know that the Lord is with us. Every single day we step outside our apartment and get to work He blesses us with miracles. He loves us and understands each one of us perfectly. Without a doubt I know that He lives and that He is our Savior, Lord and King. Heavenly Father has given us this life to grow, learn and progress so lets make the most of it and help others, love others and choose to do the right always!! May God bless you wherever you are. En el nombre de Jesucristo, Amen.
