Buenas! Como estan? He tenido una semana que fue muy interesante y
bonita. No puedo creer que estoy aqui todavia pero me gusta California
mucho. So this week one of the other Hermanas is going home because she
is past 18 months. We went out to celebrate with frozen yogurt down our
street. While we were eating our yougurts we could see film crews
setting up. They came in to sample icecream and asked them what they
were doing. They were shooting an episode with of a show with those
twins from Disney Channel Tia and Tamara. We left before we got there
but that was something interesting. California is so interesting. We
have met all walks of life and we can feel the love that Heavenly Father
has for all of them.
Sabado we had an experience
when we went to go see some people that we had been teaching to invite
them to Church. Well when we got to the gate a man pulled up and we were
going to move our bikes to let him in and he said he was just grabbing
things and then was going to leave. So we offered to help him with his
things. While moving everything he owns to his car he told us that he
was kicked out of the house and that they took his rent money and he had
nowhere to go but to live at a park in his car. He is about 65 and is
disabled so he cannot work. As we were talking with him he was saying
how he wanted to change his life, that before he would normally drink
when things were hard but that he didn't want to now.He said that his
children won't have anything to do with him and he was at the lowest of
lows. We didn't know what we could do for him. But we invited him to
change his life by coming to Church with us on Sunday. We didn't promise
him any help because he we didn't know what we could do other than
bring him the comfort and change he needed in his life through Church.
Well he came to Church before us on Sunday and wen't to all three hours.
Members got together to see what they could do which wasn't much but
they pointed him in the direction of places he could go for addiction
recovery. He was great and told us how he felt much better because of
going to Church. Later last night he called us and told us that after
Church he really wanted to drink but that instead he went to the
hospital instead to get help. That was amazing. He also told us again
that he wanted to change his life and that he when he gets money he
wants to go buy a white shirt and nice pants to go to Church to just
feel clean. Also said that he was going to start reading the Book of
Mormon. I have just felt that we were there at his house at the same
time for a purpose. Heavenly Father has a plan for him. He still has his
agency to choose but Heavenly Father has really pointed him in the
right path while he is in the lowest he has ever felt. I know he has
true intention. That was just one of many miracles we had this week.
I hope you are all doing well and that you know how grateful I am for your support.
Yo
se que Dios tiene propostio por cada persona. Tenemos la albeduria para
escoger el plan de Dios y se que si escogemos Su plan, vamos a tener
todos de las cosas que necesitemos. Mediante la Expiacion de Jesucristo
podemos cambiar y lleguemos a ser la persona que Dios quiere.
Les Amo muchisimo
Con Amor,
Hermana Sanders
