We had some great blessings this week, and we were able to find a lot of really great people to teach. We are teaching two children who are really incredible. Their mom and grandma are both members that participated actively before.

The grandma said that whenever she sees us, she feels peace in her heart. She had lost her scriptures many years ago, and when we pulled out the Book of Mormon she said it was like seeing an old friend, and she felt something when she held it again in her hands. They are very excited to learn, read, pray, and go to church.

We were teaching them about the Book of Mormon and how to receive and recognize an answer from God with respect to the book. We had one Peruvian, one Brasilian, one Chilean, and one Gringo who could all testify that they'd received an answer. And if we could receive answers, anyone can. It is true that anyone who asks sincerely and demonstrates their faith by their works will receive an answer.  

This week there was a stake activity right after a baptism and our building is the stake center. I ran into Fabiana, from Centenario. It is a great feeling when you can talk to someone you taught seven or eight months ago and see that they are stronger than ever in the gospel. I am so happy for her and her family. 

That's it for this week.
