Camron's letter.......Sept. 10, 2012

Hola fmailia, This week has been a great week. We worked hard with Jorge and Rocio (the couple we found that are awesome). We taught them Saturday, and they told us that they didn't want to rush things. They also said that they couldn't promise us that they would come to church. They said that it will take some time. It just felt way sad during this lesson and I couldn't think of what to say because we wanted so badly for them to come to church so they could see how it would bless their lives. So I was trying so hard to be guided by the spirit to be able to say something.  I then felt that we just needed to tell them how much they mean to us and how much we wanted them to be happy. Also that we knew what they needed to do so that they could be happy together. I gained a even stronger testimonio on how love truly casteth out all fear and is very powerful. I just followed the impressions of the holy ghost and all those sad feelings went away. We told them to read Alma 32 and to pray together and ask God if they should go to church. We promised them without any doubts, in the name of Jesus Christ, that if they would do this they would feel the need to go to church. Then on Sunday morning, we called them and they told us that they were going to church. After they hung up, we were cheering and celebrating. It was so awesome. The sad part however is that the car broke down that they drive. But Rocio made it to church and she stayed for the entire three hours. On another sad note, Miguel that was progressing with a baptismal date, went to Santa Cruz today and he is going to be there for a month. But I'm confident that when he gets back, he will be baptized. He will be back around the 20th of October so we are hoping that everything will go great with him. We are excited to work hard this Tuesday. We will be going to Santa Cruz this week, but we have to travel by train because the plane isn't going to come here Tuesday, haha. So 14 hours on a train. It's gonna be a blast. I do hope you all have a great week.   Love,  ELder Christoffersen
