Lo siento pero tengo casi veinte minutos mandar esta email ‏

Well what a busy week lots of service again and this week we actually manage to find a couple good potentials out in the lovely world of Lafayette.

Some highlights. We had to go Logansport to give a blessing to a sister who wanted one due to a surgery she was going to have. She asked me specifically cause I got close to the family and ya. It was good she cried, but told her not to worry that it would all be fine. She had the surgery Thursday and is now recovering.

We also had the chance to talk with a man by the name of Alberto who works at the ymca (where President Cramer works) we got to talk with him and while we will have to wait to find out if he is super interested but we have his number and address so we shall see.

This previous Sunday we had the wonderful opportunity to teach the third hour at church with President Cramer concerning la obra misional or the mission work that members could do. One of the biggest things we emphasize was that mission work is accomplished by the small and simple things. These things can be as simple as talking to them, inviting them for dinner, helping with service or simply being a friend. We focused on those concepts due to the misconception that in order to do mission work it has to be something big like sharing the plan of salvation or explaining the atonement. In truth the work can be much simpler and easier and at times more impactful at times. President Cramer shared some stories and ended the class with the invitation to have the members discuss together what they could do to have more of those missionary opportunities.


But alas I must depart, I hope you guys continue to have a fantastic week.
