September 7, 2015: The Branch Adventure Continues

Hey fam

This week has been an adventure. We have been receiving tons of references from the members and from other missionaries and from contacts we make. Our Branch President wanted us to focus on references these last few weeks. He even invited all the missionaries in our zone to come to our area and to work in our area for a few hours knocking on doors and contacting in the streets in order to ask for references. Then him and his wife fed us all delicious lasagna. It was great.

One of the references that we recieved from a member, came to church this Sunday! His name is Jony and he came with the member who invited him. He really liked the sacrament meeting, and in the Gospel Principles class he asked lots of questions and understood everything. It was about Priesthood and what it is, how it is obtained and used, blessings recieved and who posseses it etc. He also asked for a Book of Mormon, which luckily I had in my bag. Marcos also came with us again to church. He wants to be baptized and is reading the Book of Mormon since we gave one to him and explained it this week. He is great. We are very excited that he feels the Spirit and knows how to recognize it and understands the doctrine.

Yesterday was my last fast and testimony meeting in Costa Rica...I bore a simple short testimony. it amazes me how fast time flies. I was thinking a lot one night about the eternity and how heaven might be...and I don´t have a clue.. but I do know that it´s where I want to go. I know that I want to be with all yall. I know that we will be perfectly happy. Imagine. If this life we can have so many wonderful, happy moments and experiences, just imagine the next life when there will be no evil, no pain, no danger, no fear. How sad it would be to not have any hope for resurrection , or eternal life, or heaven. Thank goodness I have that hope. Ether 12:4

Love you guys!!!
