Alright so this week I will start out by talking about what has happened this past week. We ended up going to the families house and there are 9 people in that family that are capable of baptism. We will definately be working on that family to get them to their Heavenly Father. Four of them have a baptismal date for this weekend but I wouldnt be surprised if they all want to get baptized together with a few more weeks. They came to church and are really interested in the Plan of Salvation. A few months ago I made a little map thing of the Plan and that has become my primary weapon. When the people see what the Lord has in plan for them and read scriptures to back it up, they cant deny the fact that they have to get baptized like the Savior. Also this message is proof the the Restauration of the Gospel and of everything that I am teaching to the people. And also if the reject the baptism, they will always know that they had been given the chance to accept it and because of the blindness of their hearts, they rejected the greatest gift of all, Jesus Christ.
I remember the life of Jesus Christ. He was the Son of God. He lived a life without sin and He came here with the sole intent to save us. What did the people do to Him? They rejected Him, They laughed at Him, they scorned Him and disrespected Him and in the end He was crucified. One of His final phrases was, "Father forgive them for they know not what they do". As a representative of Him, it is required of me to do what He did. I am here in Mexico to bring the knowledge of the Salvation to others. As I do this they will treat me how they treated Him. And I must forgive all. From what President wrote today, I might be getting changed and moved up to mayor companion. I will let you know next week about that. Anyway it sounds like you are all doing well. The family is happy and doing what they want. I pray for you all and hope the best for everyone of you. Thank you for the support and prayers. You wouldnt believe the affect your prayers have out here so thank you. I love you all.
