May 30, 2022 - One step closer to eternity

 Week 40 

Last Monday, the 23, we went to President and Hermana Johnson's and we made cinnamon rolls. Why cinnamon rolls you may ask… Well, a few months ago in a face to face with President and Hermana Johnson, we learned that the moment President knew he should marry Hermana Johnson was when he found out she was the one who made the cinnamon rolls in the apartment. So, the sisters in my zone went to take note to prepare us a little better for our lives after the mission and for forever  

Then we had exchanges Tuesday which also brought miracles. I was on exchanges here in Montelimar with Hna González. She was my companion about 4 transfers back, so it was fun to catch up. And we had some great miracles as we helped remind one sister of the power of repentance and another family the importance of baptism. We saw miracles as now this family is really thinking and praying about the baptism of their daughter. We also found a new person while street contacting. She is a young mom and seems super cute! 

This week we also had our first ward activity since I'm not sure when, and it was amazing. We talked about the Book of Mormon and how one very important thing that we may not have without it is a testimony of Jesus, the living Christ. We also had two less active members there who haven't been to church in years! Slow and steady wins the race. We were also so excited to see that one of them came to church too! 

Other quick miracles are we put someone on bap date for the end of July! And a less active member family let the missionaries and maybe even members of the church, into their house after 2 years! 

A few thoughts from my studies this week that I would like to share: 
-Remember Him, even after His work was done here we had work to do on the other side of the veil. Christ suffered and had a longer day than I'll ever have, so I can keep working for Him. 

-"Él no espera hasta el fin." Our Heavenly Father isn't waiting to the end to rescue His sheep. He has been trying to rescue them all this time, so we should be trying all the time too. 

-"A Dios no solo le interesa lo que hagamos o lo que no hagamos, sino lo que estemos llegando a ser. Si estamos dispuestos, Él nos enseñará a acudir como Él actúa, en vez de que meramente otras fuerzas actúen sobre nosotros." - Elder Christopherson. "Our life is more than a multiple choice test." 

Les queremos y con mucho amor, 
Hermana Warburton
