Camron's letter....Sept. 3, 2012

Hola Familia, Once again, this week was a pretty good one, and once again we worked hard and were able to find some pretty good investigators. We hope that they will be able to progress. It was also pretty cold at the beginning of the week. Now it's like a blazing fire! It's the hottest that it's been this whole year!  Monday we were contacting and we came to this house and clapped our hands ( just like knocking on the door in the US) and this guy came out. We introduced ourselves and asked if we could share a message with him and his wife. He told us that they were busy trying to resolve and get through some problems that they were having at this time. We told him that this was a great time for two missionaries sent by the Lord to come help them get through these rough times and solve some of the problems they have. We asked him to go ask his wife if we could share a message of happiness to help bring the spirit of the Lord into their home. He jogged back into his house and then he came out and said, "you can come in." We came in and we were able to teach them a great message about how the gospel will truly bless them as a couple and their future family when they have kids if they are willing to make the effort to live it. They both told us that this is what they truly needed and they were sure that if they started to live the teachings of this gospel, the Lord would bless them. We invited them to pray together that night and ask the Lord for help to get through these times of trials. We also told them that if they would do this, the Lord would be with them and strengthen them. We made an appointment to come back and we arrived at their home two days later. They were ready to listen and they said that they had prayed together that night and said it truly helped them. It's way awesome because we have become great friends already. They could even remember our names after the first time they saw us. When they prayed, they asked to bless Blaser and Christoffersen and their families that are so far away. We are praying and hoping that they will accept the gospel because they are such an awesome couple and they truly want to learn more and come unto Christ. It's so awesome to find people who truly want to listen and really enjoy listening. Then they realize how great it is to listen to this message because of how much it brings the spirit into their homes. It truly makes you feel great as a missionary being able to help people and families recieve these blessings in their lives. I hope that you all have an awesome week.   Love, Elder Christoffersen
