Tormentas, Chivilcoy, y el Poder del Libro de Mormon, Sept. 11, 2017

Hola Mamá y familia!

I´m glad Noelle could enjoy her 21st birthday! She´s doing incredible things in Australia! I´m proud of you Sister Lambert! That´s also good to hear about your experiences, and that Dad made it to the Ukraine safely.

This past week was unfortunately a bit more difficult working with Caro, Lucas, Ruth, and Enrique. However, we still have high hopes for them. Lucas has some blessings of different job opportunities coming his way that will help him to better keep the sabbath day holy and support his family. We hope that he can get the job!

As for Ruth and Enrique, we had some great lessons with them. Enrique has shown very sincere desires to know if the Book of Mormon is true, and has been reading in the Book of Mormon each time we have given them an assignment. However, when we stopped by Saturday Ruth told us that she will never change from Catholocism. It was an intense moment, and we sought to understand her and explain the importance of reading in the Book of Mormon and seeking her answer from God. God blessed us that her heart softened and she accepted to attend church with us!

Unfortunately as Sunday morning rolled around Ruth and Enrique had gotten sick. We passed by for the house, gave them blessings, and kept on our way. They weren´t able to come to church, but I know that we were able to do God´s will and we hope that they can keep reading, and praying so that God can work in their lives.

Besides all the visits with Caro and Lucas, and Ruth and Enrique- we had a zone conference with Presidente Resek in a city called Chivilcoy- a 2 or 3 hour trip to arrive from our area. In the conference we talked about the power of the Book of Mormon and how we can introduce it to people. Elder Sparks and I started applying what we learned and were blessed by God´s hand to have already met quite a few people that will be visiting this next week to be able to give them a Book of Mormon.

I know that the Book of Mormon is true. There is power in the book because it brings us closer to our Savior Jesus Christ. He guides his church and loves us. May we all find strength in Him.

Love,

Elder Lambert
