Si pudiera ver mas alla, Dec. 4, 2017

Hola Mamá y familia!

Sounds like it has been an amazing trip in Australia! I´m excited too see some of the photos and hear more about your experiences. I´m glad that you all got the chance to visit Australia!

Elder Holmes and I have been putting our shoulder to the wheel for December miracles. Our mission president has asked us to work towards four baptisms in each companionship in December and we have been working hard to achieve that goal! The biggest miracles we saw this last week were with Florencia, and a new family that we met just yesterday.

Florencia is 24-years-old and has already attended church with us twice since we started visiting with her. She struggles with depression but we have been talking with her about the commandments and how they help us to have happiness. Particularly, she has had difficulties with the law of chastity and we have invited her to live the law.

God blessed us that after Zone conference this past Friday, Florencia texted us saying that she has decided that she wants to be baptized and asked what she needs to do to repent and live the law of chastity. It was great progress and we were able to teach her on Saturday and invite her again to repent and be baptized this month. 

In addition to this miracle with Florencia- on our path towards our plans yesterday, I saw a man sitting outside of his house and listening to music loudly. My natural man said to keep going to our plan, but something else said to stop and talk with him. 

Elder Holmes and I returned and met Ramón and his 5 children- Rocío, Reyes, Natalia, Naiara, and Ian. We taught them briefly and invited them to be baptized. Ramón said that none of his children have ever been baptized and that he had just been thinking about how they are old enough that they can choose to be baptized. We were extremely blessed by God to meet them and are hoping to help them come unto Christ and be baptized as a family.

I know that God lives. I am an imperfect servant, but I want to give up my worries, and trust in him. We cannot fail when we are built over the foundation of Jesus Christ. May God bless you all as you follow Him this holiday season.

Much love,
Elder Lambert
