We had a great family home evening with the Familia Corrales where we watched the movie Jose Smith: la profeta de la restauracion. Hermana Corrales shared her testimony about the trials of being a new member (her and her family were baptized 8 years ago) and the importance of staying strong and keeping our testimony alive and growing. This was two days before her baptism. Saturday everything went well for Grettel´s baptism :) Even though not as many members showed up as we would´ve liked, those who did come showed tons of love and support.
We want to focus more and more on completing families here in Coronado, looking for those members of the families who are not baptized, or not active, and helping them to repent and come unto Christ.
I love Coronado. I love being a missionary, a representative of Jesus Christ. I will always strive to be a better representative of His name and try to be like Christ. It´s not easy. Sometimes I lose perspective. But when I remember why I am here, who is my example, what He has asked us to do, who I am here to find and teach, and who I want to become, I have greater motivation to serve with all my heart, might, mind, and strength.
“Do you want to be happy? Forget yourself and get lost in this great cause. Lend your efforts to helping people. … Stand higher, lift those with feeble knees, hold up the arms of those that hang down. Live the gospel of Jesus Christ.” --Pres. Gordon B. Hinkley
Con mucho amor,
Hermana Flake
