Well this week was humbling and miraculous!
Getting used to Sucre has been rough but this week I was humbled and I learned that God's will is always greater than mine. I had such amazing experiences as I trusted in the Lord. My companion and I decided we needed to pray one afternoon as we were looking for people to teach and after doing so we still didn't know exactly what door to knock on or what street to go to but I learned that we truly do have our agency and we have to do much good of our own free will and then God will approve. We then felt to go down an alleyway and knocked on the first door. Marina came out and we instantly knew she was going to be great. It's awesome how I've been able to develop a greater awareness to the spirit's whisperings in the mission. She indeed was receptive and told us about her desire to repent and be at one with God and herself, it was wonderful to come in her home and share a message of hope and love from our Savior Jesus Christ. I know without a doubt that this gospel is true and it can bring anyone who accepts it with a sincere heart peace and hope and even joy! Well, this week I also got lost in my area haha. We had exchanges and I had to be alone leading it with another sister...Well I almost cried but I learned that I just need to trust God. That even if I feel lost he will help me find the way around, when I realized that I stopped stressing out and was able to find each place we had to go to it was a humbling experience. I couldn't do it alone but with God I felt safe and was able to lead without really knowing where I was going almost as it says in 1 Nephi 4:6. So then Saturday night we saw a miracle happen. So we've been struggling a bit to find people to teach or more like people who are willing to commit and truly change their lives. Fabian is someone that the hermanas here have been teaching for some time. He always wants to know more and know everything before accepting a date to be baptized. So in our last appointment with him before Saturday he had asked more about baptism but wasn't so sure. Saturday we asked if he had read his pamphlet and he did! He said he had read it the same night we gave it to him! That he really liked it and we asked him...Do you have the desires to be baptized? he said a firm "Si" and then I explained why we like to set a date with the people we teach he told us before we stopped talking that he had been thinking about the end of this month...(Woah we had planned that date with him) I said well we were just thinking about this too. He so willingly and happily accepted a date for the 28th of this month! It was so simple and perfect. I know that God prepared him and led him but he was humble to listen to the spirit and not reject the feelings he had about baptism as he read his pamphlet and the Book of Mormon. So that's our big miracle of the week. I know that when we work hard and are humble our fair goals are accomplished sometimes in unexpected ways. Hope you all have a blessed week! Enjoy each day! Pray and reconcilate yourself with him. I love you all, Hna Campana
