How is everyone doing? Well for me, I had a great week here in
Glendale sharing the Gospel and doing the Lord's work. Barb Davis got
Baptized on Saturday and the Spirit was so strong there. She was so
happy to make her covenants with God and come Closer to him. She had
some of her family that came to witness her Baptism and hopefully they
felt the Spirit to want to learn more about the Gospel and how it can
bless their lives. I was so privilege to confirm her a member of the
Church of Jesus Christ and confer her the Gift of the Holy Ghost. I am
so honored to have the Priesthood from God to give others one of the
greatest gifts we can receive from our Heavenly Father to guide us and
protect us in this mortal life so we can stay on the right path back to
our Heavenly Father. We had some great lessons this week with our
investigators. We met with Raymond and had a short lesson with him
reading 1 Nephi with him to help him understand the Book of Mormon and
feel the Spirit that it is Words of God to help us learn more about
Gospel. We also had a lesson with Dian on the Book of Mormon trying to
help her know that it is true and the Gospel was Restored through
Joseph Smith who translated the Book of Mormon by the Power of God. We
also met with the Ledesma family and taught the 3 kids about the Plan
of Salvation and committed them to be baptized. The 2 daughters
Florena(9yr) and Florisa(11yr) wants to get baptized but the older
brother Florensio(13yr) is not really interested in what we are
teaching. We are going to try to get him to come to young men and have
the young men fellowship him. This week I had a pretty cool tracting
experience. We were tracting at these town houses when we knocked on a
door and the guy let us in without even talking to him about why we
were there. We got to know him and his family talked to them about the
Gospel and how Families can be together Forever. We setup an
appointment with him for Saturday, but he called us on Friday and told
us he does not want us to come over anymore he going through some
problems. We were so bummed, they seemed like a wonderful family that
is ready to receive the Gospel and bring Eternal joy to their Family. We
will try to stop by in a few weeks and check how they are doing. We
had a great ward cook off on Friday night which consisted of chili,
bread, and pies that were very delicious. Barb and Dian came to the
cook off and had a great time meeting the members of the Ward. Sunday
was a great Sabbath Day. We had a return missionary from the Glendale
YSA Ward who just came back from his mission in San Rosa, California.
He shared some wonderful experiences on his mission and how it helped
him spiritually grow. This weekend we got Jessica Luzinia (15yr) set
to be baptized on Saturday. She is so excited to be baptized and loves
the young women in our ward. Her sister Georgiana cannot get
baptized until she get married because she is is living with her boyfriend
and they have 3 kids so we are teaching her and helping her make those
step that will lead her to baptism. We are having a hard time getting
in contact with the Mins Family - Vanessa, Camia, and Tashaney - we keep
praying that things are okay and we can meet with them soon so they can
Come unto Christ and enjoy the blessing from be baptized and receiving
the Holy Ghost. Well that was my great week in the mission field
helping other prepare to meet God so they can return to live with our
Heavenly Father, Jesus Christ and Families are Forever. My prayers are
always with you all. Take care.
Love,
Elder Lance Kuhi Cabral
