Well this has been a week of spiritual growth. We were able to see a worldwide transmission [broadcast] for missionaries and we
also had a conference with a member of one of the Quorums of the Seventy and his wife who came from Buenos Aires,
Elder Krasnoselsky (or something like that....ha). We learned a lot
about the importance of the Spirit in the conversion of people. I really
liked something Elder Bednar said: Teaching is not talking. It is
listening and observing, both to the Spirit and the investigator. We
tried very hard to do this during the week and have been able to help
Juan Peralta progress a lot--he is the branch president's father-in-law.
He is the first investigator I have taught who from the beginning has a
very strong testimony and already knows the church and the Book of
Mormon are true. We just have to help him be willing to change and leave
a whole life of what he's used to for what he knows is the truth. Silvia
went to church again and if all goes well she will get baptized now on
Febuary 6th!
Well I am out of time, we have to go to lunch now (we had
permission to write today because my comp got here really late yesterday
so we couldn't write.)
Well, I love my Heavenly Father, I love
His children, I love my Savior Jesus Christ, and I am grateful for the
family that I have! I love you all very much!
Con cariño,
Hermana Hooke :)
