This week was an amazing week
actually. We completed all of our goals and we found a family of gold!! We
have been chatting and talking with them and they just absolutely love us!!
They always invite us to dinner and talk about how much we`ve blessed their
lives and they accepted our invitation to baptism. The Gomez Family... Oscar,
Noemi, and Jasmine. There are 3 more littler ones but they`re not quite ready
yet ;) It has been super fun to share the gospel with them and to see how big
of a blessing it has been to them.
Oscar is doing good.... We actually
played soccer with him today and I think he sprained his ankle but he`s doing
good and he`s still coming to church and the activities and everything the only
bummer is that he wants to wait on his baptism. It`s alright though. We just
continue to teach and support him and sooner or later he will come around :)
Jessica unfortunately moved... far away.... So hopefully the missionaries over
there will be able to find her and help her!
In my studies of the Book of Mormon,
I`m in Alma 42. I have been reading a lot about the Plan of Salvation and we
actually learned about that in our district meeting last Wednesday. It always amazes me just what a perfect plan
our Heavenly Father has for us. We are truly here to learn and grow and make
mistakes but we have to learn from our mistakes and that is where the Atonement
comes in. It`s really interesting and it is such a blessing.
What have I done to serve Elder Flores this week? I helped
him put away his clean clothes, and I made his bed. I think those were the only
real acts of service that I provided this week but I am always on the lookout
for more ways that I can help so I`ll let you know how it goes this next
week.
Anyways I don`t have much time left
but I have some super big news...
We talked to President Crapo today
and we have emergency transfers. Apparently there was a small problem in
another area and he needs my help. So I`m going to be transferred to Zona
Esparana and President has high expectations for me. We talked about what he
expects of me and what the Lord expects of me and I`m super nervous but super
excited about it. I still can’t believe it. Now, I`m not
ready to leave yet. The taxi will be coming tomorrow in the
morning and I have to pack my bags and say good bye to all the members and
investigators here in my area. I will have tons of details to give you next
week but as for now... That`s all the update I can give you... I
will continue forward with faith.
Love,
Elder Lott
