Well a couple of cool experiences happened this last week.
1) We were helping this less active try and gain a testimony to do missionary work. We were trying to apply what Elder Gay had told us and let everyone know that their answer to ever question in the world is in the book of mormon! So this la didnt really believe that the Bom was the word of god. Her parents arent members and so we said think about what you want, read the book and try and find your answer.. Well about a week later she came up to us and said, Elders, YOU are never going to believe what just happend to me? We said what? She said, last night in my dream god answered my prayer!!!! She says I was back in my country in Honduras. I was living in the streets and it was so dangerous. Everyone was killing each other, selling drugs, Doing bad stuff etc.. So i climed this wall to get away from it all. I climed a wall and when i got to the top, I reached the temple that i had seen their in honduras... There was a women there and she said dont worry, As long as you are in the temple you will be safe... She then felt the confirmation of the Holy ghost. Afterwards the women in her dream gave her a Book of Mormon and told her she had to read it and that it was the word of god....
The lord truly works in mysterious ways.. She told us I know now what I have to do! It was suuch a cool experience!
An update from the Garcia Family, they are getting tempted left and right. Go figure... They all of a sudden have to work on sundays and now they are attending their old church. We watched the change in their faces. The desire as the Holy Ghost decended over them and they were so willing to change but they have been talking to "people" So we pray that we don't lose them. There always seems to be something... We had such a spiritual lesson of the restoration but they seem to believe that their is no need to repent and that everyone is a prophet and has the authority to baptize... This is definately an interesting case... She's married to another man but living with this one.... But we are staying positive, seeing miracles and trying to teach with the spirit. I hope you all have a great week!
Love
Elder Cornejo
