Hello!
This week I've truly been reminded of how truly amazing our Heavenly Father is. Not only does he love us unconditionally, but he also is always wanting to bless us. I know that he is a God of Miracles and I was constantly being reminded of that this week. He really is just waiting for us to come to him in faith.
My heart is so full with gratitude for all of the amazing miracles, both big and small, that we've been blessed with this week. To give you all a little idea we were able to find family and another lady that is investigating the church, one of our investigators is progressing quickly, we were able to see so many less-actives that we've been trying to see for months, we were able to have almost all of our investigators at church this past, and so many more that I can't even begin to explain.
Another amazing miracle that we've been blessed with is my ability to speak Spanish. We taught one of our investigators, R, the restoration this week and it was such a spiritual experience. R wife, A, speaks very little English. When we were teaching the lesson, Sister Gillin's (who doesn't speak any Spanish) felt impressed to ask A to share her conversion story and how the message of the Restoration has changed her life. She bore the most eloquent and beautiful testimony that I've ever heard in Spanish. It was such a blessing to be able to understand her, translate for my comp and then be able to use what she said and relate it back and continue with the lesson. It was such an amazing experience that I can't even fully put into words.
I am just reminded constantly of why I'm here. We would not have been able to touch the L family without being able to speak English and Spanish. They are such an amazing couple and it's such a special feeling to be there to help them progress and to come closer to their Savior.
I am so blessed to be serving the people of San Clemente. I've never been happier.
Thank you all for all of your continued love and support. It truly means the world to me.
I love you all!
