Hey Everyone,
This week was
difficult but ended up being very rewarding. This week we had Zone Conference,
where President Baker focused a lot on how we can be better at "flooding
LA with the Book of Mormon this last part of the year, and he challenged us to
finish reading it by the end of the year. I've taken a lot of time to really
understand and breakdown the BOM and I am really starting to see how inspired
it is and how no evil man could write it and a good man wouldn't have written
it unless it was through the power of God. Anyway, I bet you all were all excited
to hear about Luis's baptism. Well....This Wednesday we visited the visitors’
center and he surprised us by saying that he wants to wait until the end of the
year to be baptized so he can start the New Year off fresh, like a new year’s
resolution. We would have been more bummed up, but we really enjoyed the visit
at the VC main because Luis truly understands the gospel of Jesus Christ and
has intentions to follow him. He came to church on Sunday, but I didn't go
because there was another elder that had a baptism to go to and I joined him.
While Luis was at church, a member talked to him about receiving the blessings
of the gospel sooner, so after church we were able to agree to have him baptize
him on Nov 4 the Sunday before the end of the transfer. We are happy for him,
especially because he has a desire to serve a mission as well.
Os amo tanto
Elder Marrott
