Hey there!!
I love missionary work! There really is nothing like it. Elder Limocon and I really just had a wonderful week this past week. We went out finding and teaching like crazy and we have seen a lot of success because of it! One thing Elder Limocon and I really focused on was extending baptismal invitations and dates to everyone, especially on the first lesson. It was awesome to see the Spirit work inside of them and they really could feel the message was true, they would then accept that baptismal invitation and it made me so happy becasue I know it will bless their lives so much. Baptism is an essential part of the gospel of Jesus Christ, without it we cannot enter into the kingdom of God. As missionaries it is our duty to invite everybody to baptism so that they can receive these blessings of the gospel and ultimately the best blessing of all, eternal life in the presence of our Heavenly Father. The Vigunti family are doing great, they have had a little bit of struggles lately, but because of their strong faith in the Savior they are not letting it get to them, but instead are just doing everything to receive this gospel. I love them so much and I am so grateful for their examples to me. They really have helped me so much and help me to grow my testimony as well. We also taught a new family this week. They are the Perol family and they are absolutely amazing. In the beginning they weren't too receptive but we just kept listening to the Spirit and we were able to help them resolve some concerns they had. They then accepted baptismal dates and exercised great faith by coming to church yesterday for the first time! I was so grateful they had the faith to come and experience the blessings that come form coming to church. They really enjoyed it and plan on coming from now on! I love this gospel so much and I know it will continue to bless so many more people. I have been blessed so much since receiving this gospel and hope everyone will receive it one day.
