It was great to see everyone Sunday! I´m glad to hear that you could have a great Mother´s Day and that you and Dad are going to be able to visit Connor and Melinda! That sounds like it is going to be a great trip!
This last week was absolutely EXCELLENT here in Altos de Merlo. I didn´t get to tell you about them last Monday, but on Sunday night the 6th of May Elder Soberanas and I met Angela, Rocío, and Matías in addition to Fiorella and Bautista.
Angela had attended church over ten years ago, and was preparing to be baptized when a tragedy happened- she lost her daughter, a newborn granchild, and her 13-year-old son in a house fire. After all of this time, we found her last Sunday and she now is excited to be able to attend church again, be baptized with her two grandkids (Rocío and Matías), and then be able to perform the temple of work of her children that passed away.
Fiorella is a single mother of 4 boys (Bautista, Ignacio, Francisco, and Caleb). She recently broke up with the father of her sons, and we contacted her in the street in a moment when she was being weighed down by the burden that she was now facing (raising 4 children alone). She was able to read in the Book of Mormon, feel of its power, and receive her own testimony that it´s true. She is also excited to prepare for baptism along with her 9-year-old son, Bautista.
God continues to pour out blessings upon me and my companion. I know that in the coming days I still have many people to invite unto Christ. Today is my only day to work in the Lord´s vineyard, and I hope to thrust in my sickle with all of my heart, might, mind, and strength. Thank you all for your continued love and support.
With all.of my love,
Elder Lambert
