It´s great to hear from you all! I love hearing all of the exciting news. Elder Soberanas and I had a great week! We had some truly beautiful experiences, and we´re excited to see many more!
Technically the last name of Elder Soberanas is Elder Milne-Soberanas but his name is too long to fit on his plaque so he chose the part that was easier to pronounce in Spanish- Soberanas. And the answer is- yes he does know his heritage. His mom is actually from Spain.
Victoria was actually baptized and confirmed this last weekend!!! It was a really spiritual and uplifting chain of events! We really felt the spirit so strongly throughout all of the teaching and her decision to be baptized and confirmed!
It was an amazing experience- in one of the lessons as we talked about the commandments, and being able to attend the temple after baptism her 3-year-old daughter, Maitena, said, "I want to join this church." Victoria was able to explain to her how when she is eight she will be able to get baptized- although she wasn´t excited that her older sister, Tiziana is going to be able to get baptized first.
After the beautiful baptismal service and her confirmation in church, she even went up to bare her testimony! It was such a powerful moment, and I felt so happy that Elder Soberanas and I could be in the right place, at the right time, and act upon the impressions that we received from the spirit.
I don´t have time to write more details, but I´m so excited for wait the coming days hold. God is pouring out his blessings upon us. I hope that you are all seeking out the promised blessings of God! I know that as you are obedient to him and his called servants that you will be blessed!
I love you all!
