Teaching Of The Godhead With Inspirational Prayer

Hey guys!

Elder Jay and I had a good week and witnessed the help of the Lord through His spirit with the people we are working with.

Elder Jay and I focused this week on the things we learned this week from zone meeting about a tool we could use in the work by combining the teaching of the Godhead with inspiration in prayer to invite powerfully the spirit and then use the six steps. We decided to also put a goal to put 1 baptismal date every single day. As we did it and focused on that goal we saw the success. Although we weren't able to put 6 or 7 baptismal dates this week, we were able to put 3 and take them to church.

Using these things we learned, we went to an appointment with a lady named Claudia who we had met through her son who we met when some teens called us over to play frontón (handball) one day. We went to meet with her and taught about the Godhead and the role of every individual member of it. The spirit came powerfully to the lesson and Elder Jay offered an inspired prayer that made her feel the spirit stronger and start to cry. When we ended the prayer we asked her how she felt and she said that it was an amazing sensation she felt inside along with lots of peace and that it made her want to cry. We identified with her that it was the Spirit that she was feeling and taught her about the Doctrine of Jesus Christ and invited her to be baptized. She accepted and is still doing well. The next day we went over and her daughter was there so we taught both of them about the Restoration of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and when we could feel the Spirit, we invited her daughter, Belén, to also be baptized and she accepted.

We also were able to teach the grandson of some members of our ward who are getting back to activity in the church. His name is Giovanni. We taught about the Gospel of Jesus Christ and he himself identified the need for baptism and accepted gladly to be baptized. We are planning all of their baptisms for this week to come and the confirmations of the kids we baptized last week and this week.

We are doing great and will continue to do so and I hope all of you do too! Love you all!

¡Ten fe y se obediente!

Todo mi amor,
Elder San Diego

P.S. To all those who read this blog: I normally make it a matter to not disclose personal or family issues with friends and others. However, I wish to inform all those who read my blog that my mom, Holly San Diego, is sick and in the hospital right now suffering from what the doctors conclude to be an inflamed pancreas. I would ask of all of you to please include my mom in your prayers on behalf of her well-being and recuperation. I will be eternally thankful for all those who do so.
