Dear Family,
Good to hear from you as
always! I´m doing great. We´re seeing miracles in the ward, it´s been really
neat. We had two baptisms this weekend as a result of reactivation. The mother
is coming back into activity and we baptized her two daughters. It was really
neat, now it´s just the father that needs to cut the coffee.
The attendance has been about 150 these last few sundays, which is good for this ward. The ward has already passed the number necessary to split, but we need to reactivate a few more priesthood holders and we need more full tithe payers. But from what we´ve heard, when the attendance is 180, they can split the ward. So that´s what we´re working for.

I love the scripture Helaman
3:35 that says:
Nevertheless they did afast and bpray oft, and did wax stronger and stronger in their chumility, and firmer and firmer in the faith of Christ, unto the filling their souls with joy and consolation, yea, even to the dpurifying and the esanctification of their hearts, which sanctification cometh because of their fyielding their hearts unto God.

I´ve learned a lot about yielding my heart to God. It´s not
just about doing the right things, but doing the right things for the right
reasons. I´ve really felt a change in my heart. Love you all and have a great
week!
