Yesterday was testimony meeting and a lot of
people went up front to bear their testimony and everyone did a good job. Of
course, there were the usual members who cry, tell their life story, thank
everyone in the world for everything, the kids who spit on the microphone, and
the kids who just shout so that the world can hear them. It was a good fast and
testimony meeting. What made it better was that Flor and her youngest daughter
Larisa went up to share their testimonies and Spirit was felt. Later on there
were members who told us that they felt the Spirit when those two stood up and
spoke. It´s because they have sincerely prayed and really felt an answer from
the Holy Ghost that this is true. They don´t just say it to say it and that´s
what I love about their testimonies.
Also, I got to confirm Yatziri yesterday. I
remember that we went up on the stand and we just put our hands on her head. I
realized when we were ready that I didn´t even think about how the prayer went
word for word and I thought for a second, "What do I do?" but then I
just felt calm and opened my mouth and the words flowed out. During the
blessing I felt that what I was saying from the Holy Ghost and not from my own
mouth. Later, her family said that they felt the Spirit when Yatziri was being
confirmed. It was a neat experience to be involved in that. I haven´t confirmed
anyone in quite a while.
Patty went to church yesterday and stayed
for Gospel Principles class, but she had to leave early. She just said that she
had lots of questions but what will help a lot is that she was tearing up
during the class which means to say that she probably felt the Spirit testify
to her that it was true. I´m so grateful that the Spirit convinces people
because I could never convince a person and have that convincement(?) last as
long as an answer from the Holy Ghost.
Next week we have transfers and Mother´s Day
so it will be a good experience to see y'all again and hear your squeaky
voices! I still don´t know if it will be on Friday (Mother´s Day here) or on
Sunday. I´ll let you know in a short little bit what will happen.
Have a great week!
Love,
Elder Hill

Worried about
Des and this move. Slipping into depression…
Fading…not
much to say, it almost consumes all thoughts, worrying about it.
(EH) Which Des and which move? Gotta tell me directly because I don´t
understand., ttyl
My daughter/your
sister. If we HAVE to move. I start crying every time I think of it, which is
often. She's gonna be ok. Worried about not going to MPJH, not really rentals
there.
Read D &
C 100, the whole thing…….Was believing…I know it will…just really afraid…Ya, I
know that one too. I have faith it will all work out. It’s the MINE not
Thine problem. Pretty crushed as you can imagine….
(EH) Quit worrying because worrying never
got a person further in life! That´s what I was always told by a friend. Just
let life flow and do what you can. If you want to be good with the world, be
good with God. That´s something that I realized in my studies this week when I
was trying to study for a certain family. I´m not saying that you´re not good
with God, it´s just something I realized yet again this week. (re: 542)
Obviously I
guess I am still being perfected.
(EH) We´ll skype on Sunday at 3pm your time,
4 my time. You´re not in church are you? I don´t remember but all is well. Love
you. Have a good week!
Me. Son of Gold, I mean God. :)
Um yes, I will leave right after
sacrament.
Te amo, mi hijo de Padre Celestial!
Mamá, (I love you, my child of
Heavenly Father!
Mom)
