Week 21
This week our miracles came in the form of contacts with less active members. As we were teaching a recent convert outside of their house Saturday, their neighbor came out and they listened to the end of our lesson. Turns out, this person is a less active member who we've been trying to contact but they don't answer our messages. He said he would love to have us over for weekly messages! Miracle! We also asked the recent converts where a less active member lives and when we went to visit them they were home and we taught a lesson there too!
This week we had a zone conference along with a few changes with the COVID spike here in Costa Rica. Nothing too bad, but now we can't contact in the streets and we don't get references from media, so we're going to have to get creative with finding new people. We can still have lessons in person though as long as we keep our masks on so that's a blessing! We also have sacrament meeting in person and the second hour on zoom. These precautions are in place until the end of January, so we are praying that this is the pura palabra and that we'll be able to meet again in February.
Our favorite fruit friends are doing great and progressing. We finished teaching them the restoration this week and invited them to read the Book of Mormon. After our invitation, one of them asked a question that is probably my favorite question so far… ¿Qué tanto va a cambiar mi fe? Our response was along the lines of how much do you want this book to change your faith? We discussed that this book will only help their faith grow as long as that's what they desired. Then they said they would read it!
I loved this question and know that it's a question we all should ask and answer for ourselves. How much effect do we want the Book of Mormon to have on our lives?
Cuídense mucho!
Mucho amor,
Hermana Warburton
