Week 95...The Gospel.

Well this week was great! We had a lot of success. We found 2 new families. Referrals from the Ramos family, our investigators to be baptized next Saturday! They are cousins. They came to church the first week we had only taught them once!! It's awesome. We are working daily in a place called Villa. We are joking but its kinda a serious joke to start a Villa Branch. Not enough people yet, but there are lots of members and people to visit and work with. Sacrament was awesome with 10 investigators and one late. Along with a few less active members showing up that we are visiting. It's been great! 

We are working hard in bringing people unto Christ. A lot of people are afraid of us. They know why we are here. It's to call them to repentance. That is our purpose. To invite others to come unto Christ by helping them receive the restored gospel through faith in Jesus Christ, repentance, baptism, receiving the gift of the Holy Ghost, and enduring to the end. We get very interesting replies/reactions to people. Often laughable and  annoying sometimes. But always worth it. The Lord stated in D&C "The worth of souls is great in the sight of God."  We must make an effort in all that we do. For if we don't we wont fulfill our purpose. I pray that we may all follow these steps of faith and repentance, asking for forgiveness in humility before the Lord. 

I love you all and know that We have a loving Father in Heaven who has given us the gospel through a living prophet!
