LIFE IS SO SPIRITUAL HERE IN PHOENIX, AZ


Hola Familia y Amigos,
 

Como esta? Well I am doing great as usual in Phoenix, AZ.  This week was a spiritually filled week with some great lessons and an amazing general conference.  It was a spiritually uplifting weekend with great talks by the prophets and general authorities of the church.  Every speaker had wonderful messages that will help build our faith, share and live the gospel, and serve others.  Robie really enjoyed the Saturday sessions of general conference.  She came to the Stake Center to watch both sessions on Saturday and received some answers she had questions on and Rebecca also had a great time watching general conference.  She went to a members house on Saturday and watched the Sunday sessions at home.  My week was pretty busy with some great lessons and did a lot of tracting to find new investigators.  Robie had her baptism interview on Saturday after the first session and passed.  She is so excited to get baptized this Saturday, April 7.  The gospel is making a great change in her life and she feels the spirit testify to her that Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ loves her.  Tuesday, we had a great lesson with Robie.  Then we had a lesson with Ben on the Restoration but he is comfortable with his life now and is not sure if he wants to learn more.  We testified that if he reads and prays to know if the Book of Mormon is true that he will receive an answer.  On Wednesday, I was on exchanges with Elder Alvis our zone leader in his area.  We started the day by street contacting on a busy bus transfer intersection.  So we would split up and contact people on the street and at the bus stops.  It was a pretty cool experience.  I made some great contacts and got a return appointment for the zone leaders.  Then we did some tracting at some apartments and did the prayer approach.  It went pretty well - we got to do one prayer with a guy and a few return appointments.  Then we had a great lesson with the Javier family on the Plan of Salvation.  We used some visual aids to help the kids and they loved it.  Then we had a lesson with Mike on Prophets and asked him to go to General Conference with questions he had.  On Thursday, we did our weekly planning and had district meeting.  On Friday, we had a lesson with Linda a less active member who is going through some hard times and show her how the gospel can help her.  Then we helped Robie move to a new house and went over the baptism interview questions with her.  Then we had a lesson with Rebecca on Prophets and talked to her about General Conference.  On Monday, we had great lessons with Robie and Rebecca on General Conference.  On Sunday, we asked Robie to pray about who she wanted to baptize and confirm her and when we went over on Monday she came up to me and told me "I received my answer and your was the one".  I was so honored and excited that she wanted me to baptize her this Saturday.  I am so happy we got transfer news this morning and me and Elder Bartleson is staying in our area.  I was so relieved because we got some great baptism and confirmation this Saturday and next Saturday for Rebecca.  Well that was my wonderful week until next week take care and my prayers are with you all.  I love being a missionary sharing the Gospel and helping our Heavenly Father's children return to live with him and their family for eternity.  I know that Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ loves us all and that Thomas S. Monson is a Prophet of God to lead us back to him.



Love always, 
Elder Lance Kuhi Cabral
