Dear Family and Friends,
How
are you guys doing? Well, I am doing great here in Buckeye - sharing
the Gospel and doing the Lord's work. The weather has been a little
cold this week but still pretty nice. Well, I had a great week teaching
the Gospel to our investigator's and helping them Come unto Christ
through Baptism and being confirmed the Holy Ghost. We had a wonderful
Baptism for April Harris on Saturday. There was a strong spirit as her
father baptized her and made her first covenant with God to enter that
gate back to our Heavenly Father. There was a great turnout of family
and friends from the ward that came to support her and witness her make
Promise with God. She was so happy as she received the Holy Ghost to
help her stay on the straight path and guide her to Choose the Right and
keep her safe. We had a great lesson with Destiny this week on the
Restoration of the Gospel and she loves coming to church and how
friendly everyone is. We also had a great lesson with Marsha a new
investigator, we were planning to teach her the Plan of Salvation but we
ended up teaching her about prophets and how the Book of Mormon is so
important in the Restoration of the Gospel and how we can know Joseph
Smith was a true prophet that was called by God by reading and praying
about the Book of Mormon. As we prepare in our studies, we have the
Spirit to be with us even though we teach something we did not plan for
the Spirit is with us as we teach to the investigators needs. We also
had a spiritually wonderful lesson with William on the Plan of Salvation
and going over his Baptism interview questions. His mom who has been
less active for many years bore a powerful testimony on keeping the Word
of Wisdom even though she struggle to give up smoking and coffee. It
was a wonderful lesson as we testified to her that Jesus Christ can give
her the strength to overcome those addictions and she will be blessed
and free from it as she has Faith in Jesus Christ and through his
Atonement he knows the struggles we go through and wants to help us. I
am so honored to be a servant of Jesus Christ to preach his Gospel and
have the spirit to teach our Heavenly Father's children the truthfulness
of the gospel. The spirit is what converts people to Christ, we are
just instruments in the Lord's hands. We had a great Sabbath Day with 2
Ward Conferences for both Estrella Hills and Palo Verde ward. Great
talks by the youths, Bishop, and Stake President of the Stake Annual
Theme "Living your Life to be Worthy to have the Holy Ghost and
Following those Promptings". Well that was my great week. I love and
miss you all so much. You are always in my prayers. Take care and
have a fantastic week.
Love for Eternity,
Elder Lance Kuhi Cabral
