What's up y'all, I hope you're doing great cuz here in San Martín we are working hard for our Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ. And there is nothing that's gonna stop us cuz its Elder Nelson and Elder Elison and y'all already know its the best power couple since Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift. But we are doing our best to work hard and get to know the members cuz members mean miracles. But here's some cool things that happened this week
My Boy Yonson and the Highlux
Alright so, we got a little pueblito in our area again called Itambe Guazú and we work in it because there are so many members that live over there and so whenever we have exchanges in our area one of us heads over to Itambe Guazú and the other stays in the city. And me having been only once to this pueblito was chosen to go work there with my boy Elder Johnson (Yonson) so of course we teaching with so much authority and power and we were grinding and we had just got done with such a great lesson. But we had to go to another part of Itambe Guazú so we hop in the brand new truck and head over using my very limited knowledge of this area...so we follow the map and start to hit so many bumps and dirt until we were just out in a field basically with a dude just staring at us in the rain...he started walking towards us so Yonson just flips a u turn and speeds out of that place as we backtrack and head to where we actually needed to go...I can officially say I've been off roading now in my mission and that I don't know my area but we finished the day, bought some gas for the apartment and bought some burgers with the boys. It was for sure some of the best and funnest exchanges I've ever done.
Follow the Spirit
Ok so we recieved a training from our mission President about following the Spirit and I thought it was so important in just every aspect of our lives. We had so many miracles from this principle! To start off, we had the option to go to two people and listening to the Spirit made me feel like lets try the first guy...we never found him but we found a family that started crying as we shared about how we can see our parents on the other side! Then at Stake Conference where there are so many people...one dude stood out to me and I felt prompted to talk to him and then I forgot, but then I remembered and felt prompted to sprint out the door, so me and Elison did and there he was leaving, and turns out he lives in our area and that day his mom had brought him to church for the 1st time in many years so we took his number down and are gonna visit him! Then that night we had a lesson with an awesome friend Elder Elison had put on date and he felt prompted to share abour tithing and she told us she had questions about it and was needing to know how it worked and was hoping we shared about it...and then we did with clarity! She then asked how we knew...and for sure it was the Spirit...if you need help in your life, ask God and let the Spirit guide.
Elder Costa
Ok so a member of the Seventy (church leadership) came this week and was just so awesome. He helped us realize we need to ALWAYS focus on our missionary purpose when we do anything (visit a member, teach, etc) and helped us as a mission know what we need to do better to change! It was awesome. He's so spiritual and powerful! My favorite thing he said was to start, "This is the Church of Jesus Christ" and its so true! Read the Book of Mormon for evidence to that! But I'm excited to keep repenting and do better everyday as my Heavenly Father helps me to be the missionary I need to be!
That's it for this week, it was hot but we worked hard! Im grateful for the grind and for the opportunity that we have to become better and more obedient always! Jesus is my Savior and died for you and me!
Elder Nelson
