The Lord Prepares His People - May 18th, 2015

Hola! Sounds like you all had a good week here in IF and also in the DR!! Dad you can come down here to Mexico and be my comp! Sounds good to me!.) It was a super quick week but super great and full of experiences!! Too bad we only have an hour so I can just tell you a couple!! So we are starting to get the confidence of the members here in the area and we went to sister Montolongos house and were going to see if she could go with us to a lesson but she said... elders!! Enter Enter!! So we went into here little garage thing because there wasn’t a man over 18 so we couldn’t enter the house, but we had chairs what not so we sat there and she told us that she had someone that wanted to talk to us!! We said alright and were a little confused because it’s all member that live there!! As we were waiting she came out with the helper at the house!! She has been helping them for over 15 years and has never listened to the missionaries!! Remember this family is super strong in the church!! All the sons went on missions and the dad is in the bishopric and everything!! She hasn’t listened to them once!!! I’m not sure how but it happened!! The lord really does prepare the people for us!!! He’s doing the work and touching their hearts to hear the message of the restoration! We had the lesson and it was super powerful!! We didn’t want to push here super hard because it could turn everything upside down with her help and the family... so we are taking things slowly and this week we will return and see if she really did the commitment on reading and praying to see if it’s true!!! She is pretty great!! Ha by the way her name is Mari! We also had a lesson last night with a part member family Family Rios! Three families live in one house and the kids are all members and live with their families in the house!!! The house is tiny!!!! The son is less actives but know everything is true and his wife isn’t a member!! We showed and told them we had a very specific lesson just for them!! Ha we sat down and started talking!!! We started talking about random things and then my comp asked him what was his favorite movie... he told us Fast and Furious!!! Ha so funny!!! He got all into it and what not!! It just clicked!! Thanks to my comp!! We are best friends with them now!) We then shared a message with them about the Book of Mormon so that the wife can know if it’s true and we tied it in with families can live together forever!! We testified super strongly that the Book of Mormon holds it all together and that she can know if it’s true!! We had a moment of silence and the husband started to talk!!! He bore his testimony of the truthfulness of the Book of Mormon and that one day, in the near future she will know it’s true and that they will have a family that can live forever only through the temple!! It was so powerful because he was testifying these things to her!! It was amazing because with the love that they have and the trust in a marriage makes it a lot more powerful than us missionaries could ever do it!! We ran home because we were a little late in awe!!! Made it home on time and both sat there saying how amazing it was!! I am sure your experience was just has great as mine dad and I know how strong the spirit is when you testify of the gospel!! Love you guys tons and hope you have a great week!!! Know that you’re always in my prayers!! Especially Grandpa Facer!!!! Love Ky!!! We have a baptism coming up on the 30th!!!!! Family Moctazuma Loreda!!!! Pray for them!!!!: Love you all!!!
