Hello Family and Friends,
How is everyone doing? Well for me, it was another wonderful week
in the mission field serving the Lord and doing the Lord's work. The
weather was still very nice this week in the mid 90's, drinking lots of
water throughout the day keeps me hydrated. We had some very great
lessons this week with the investigators we are teaching. Sandy's
Baptism got postponed because she went into the hospital on Saturday,
she is pregnant and was not feeling well and having pains from her
baby. She got out of the hospital a few hours later and was doing
well. She just needed to stay home and rest. Hopefully she feeling
good this Saturday and gets baptized and receives the Holy Ghost to help
and comfort her. We also had a great lesson with Lareda on Friday
about strengthening our Faith in Jesus Christ by praying, reading the
scriptures, going to church, serving others, and keeping the
commandments. She did not know if the Book of Mormon was true and she
was not receiving any answers from our Heavenly Father. We promised her
that if she continued to read and pray about the Book of Mormon that
she would receive an answer. She text us the next day saying "YES, I
am ready to be Baptized". We were so excited to hear her good news
after we were bummed about Sandy's baptism. Lareda has a baptism date
for May 19. Lareda had a great Sabbath day at church. We had a
wonderful fast and testimony meeting. The spirit was so strong that I
had to go up and bear my testimony about the Gospel and how grateful I
am to be a servant of our Savior - Jesus Christ and preaching his Gospel
to all our brothers and sisters in Phoenix. We also taught the Gospel
Essential class on the Atonement and how we can live with our Heavenly
Father, Jesus Christ, and our Families for Eternity as we live the
Gospel through our lives. Robie Moore recent convert is doing really
well. She seems to always be happy since she got baptized and received
the Holy Ghost to help and guide her. On Saturday, I was on exchanges
with zone leaders Elder McBribe and we had a lesson with Sandy, we read 2
Nephi 31 with her and prepared her for her baptism. Then we did some
visit with some potential investigators. We made it a goal to talk with
everyone we see not only the people we pass on the streets. We had 4
return appointments to give a Book of Mormon or do a prayer with them.
That strengthens my Faith that the Lord is truly preparing people for us
to teach and help them come unto Christ as long as we are doing our
best to share the Gospel with all those we come in contact with or see.
Two of those return appointments were from people out in the yard and
as we are going up to them and offering help. Well that was my amazing
week here in Phoenix. I love being a missionary and sharing the Gospel
and our Heavenly Father's plan for all of us to return to live with
him. I want to wish my Mother and ALL Mother's - Happy Mothers Day!
this coming Sunday. I cannot wait to talk to my family this Sunday. I
should be calling around 12-1 Hawaii time. Well until next week! Take
care.
Love,
Elder Lance Kuhi Cabral
