Elder Becerra and me |
Aaaaaahhhhh, I don't know what to say. Andrés was
progressing well, had a relapse about a week ago (which is normal), but he's
not too discouraged, still wants to progress. His family is almost never there,
though, so it's been harder to teach them all. Other serious investigadors are
Jesús, the nephew of a member family, but his parents aren't sure about him
getting baptized, and even though he wants to, he needs their permission.
Yazmín, the niece of another member, but almost the same situation--her mom's
fine with her joining the church, but she lives with her grandparents and other
family, not her mom, and they're very Catholic, and are being
extremely unkind to her because of her decision to listen to us. She likes the
church, and was starting to progress, but she's been out of town, so we haven't
seen her much. We're also focusing on helping a few less-active families with
goals to go to the temple, as well as a family (the Rodríguezes) that got
baptized over a year ago that could now get sealed. We're working with them to
overcome the obstacles and take that step. They have a goal for mid-July. The
bunny is theirs. It's name is Martuquis.

It's been hot, but not quite as hot, I think. Time blends
together. Every day's a week, every week's a day. You know, the usual.
The Church is true, the Book is blue, the work's not
through, so we'll go and do.
Love,
Élder Rob Weatherford
P.S.
"But behold, that which is of God inviteth and
enticeth to do good continually; wherefore, everything which inviteth and
enticeth to do good, and to love God, and to serve him, is inspired of God. ...
for every thing which inviteth to do good, and to persuade to believe in
Christ, is sent forth by the power and gift of Christ; wherefore ye may know
with a perfect knowledge it is of God. ...
...And now, my brethren, seeing that ye know the light by
which ye may judge, which light is the light of Christ, see that ye do not
judge wrongfully...
Wherefore I beseech of you, brethren, that ye should
search diligently in the light of Christ that ye may know good from evil; and
if ye will lay hold upon every good thing, and condemn it not, ye certainly
will be a child of Christ."
