Reactivating a Family

Hola a mi fam y mis amigitos,

Sooo this week was pretty hard--more soo last night with Maicol who we've been focusing on a lot. Last night, and I don't want to focus on this too much, but we basically found that he's not been understanding anything of what we've been talking about and told us about some extremely...different beliefs that he's had--but its OK!! We keep going because that's who we are and it's our duty to keep trying. We really had to study the scriptures with him last night and I had to throw some references down on him.  A lot in James 2 about faith and how it's a principle of action...it's given from God by our actions to receive it...it doesn't just appear out of nowhere...

A blessing that happened this week is that we've been able to help a family reactivate in the church with 2 amazing kids (Lorenzo and Valentina) who aren't baptized. They are 9 and 11 in that order so now we have to give them the discussions but it's cool to see how the Lord will have 2 more people make that covenant with him. We're going to teach them tomorrow and put the date for the 12th of March to be baptized and work with Franco (who was scared of the water) to have a family night with the Luna kids (Lorenzo and Valentina) so they can help him do it. Some awesome kids that are helping their own parents come unto Christ again.

Anyway that's something from this week-- much love to you all!! Always count your blessings because there are many!! Especially in the world's most blessed country!:)

Aguante los Estados Unidos!
