Miracles Happening and People Progressing

HEY HEY HEY!!!!

things are going wonderfully here in beautiful ka´aguy rory!!! 

this last week we were able to see the wedding and baptism of Roberto and Mirta. I would send you a bunch of pictures but unfortunately we are on the computers today that you can't connect anything to them. one day though you will see it. the spirit was there and it was amazing. we were kinda nervous to start because not that many members had arrived but when the baptism and the wedding came along there were not a ton of members but the right members were there. Roberto is a security guard who works nights and comes to church right after work which is incredible!!! he has a lot of faith and wants to follow the Lord. it is so amazing how through the spirit and the book of mormon all can come to know that God's true church has been restored to the earth again. Mirna is going to have their first child in about 5 months or so. its going to be such a blessing to have your children be born into the gospel. i know because i have seen the fruits of it. we are also planning for two more baptisms this week. and another wedding!!! Petrona and emilio are going to get married and he is going to get baptized, and then tomorrow we are going to get the permission from a parent of a miguel martinez who wants to be baptized as well. so many miracles happening every day and truly the lord is preparing his sheep to hear and recognize his voice. what a blessing it is that i have to be a missionary to declare this gospel and invite my brothers and sisters to come unto the savior!!!!

this last week we had an amazing lesson last monday night. we contacted a man on the street and he asked us for the book of mormon. we asked him if he would read it and he said of course so we gave it to him and set up a visit. we got there monday night and it was the most simple yet amazing lesson in the world. the spirit wasn't super strong or powerful but you could tell that he was there testifying to this man the truth of the restored gospel of christ. after explaining the book of mormon and the restoration to him we asked him what he was feeling. he said that he was feeling this different warmth inside of him and that something inside of him was just telling him that he needs to read the book of mormon because it will help him come to know the true church of christ. WOW!!!! his prayer was even more amazing. sadly we are not sure if he lives here in asuncion or in ciudad del este but either way he's gonna get baptized. 

another miracle, we were walking down the street searching to find a family prepared to receive the gospel. we contacted some kids and a man pulled by and said. hey are you guys mormons. with a huge smile -  we said yes we are. we are the missionaries. he told us how he wanted all of the pamphlets and books that we could give him. we gave him a book of mormon and invited him to read it to know if it was true. he told us that he worked in park city for four months and has alot of friends who are members. he doesn't live in our area, but the lord has prepared him and si o si he is going to be baptized.

just some short thoughts and fun stories. things are going wonderfully this is the lords work i have no doubt of that. this is his church and the book of mormon is true. testifying of its truthfulness just brings something inside of you that you cannot describe. on weds we are meeting Elder Jorge Zaballos of the area presidency it is going to be incredible!!! i can't wait. its going to be a spiritual and revelation waterfall!!!

love you all hope all of the start ups of school stuff goes well!!!

always in my thoughts and prayers

All Is Changing

HEY FAMILIA!!!!! MBA´ETEKOPIA CHE FAMILIA KUERA!!!!

felt like spicing it up a little bit and giving you guys some guarani to start off. it says how are you doing my family. a very nice way to start. 

well things are changing here in the mission. i have a new companion now  Elder Pastul . from El Salvador an absolute "capo" as we say here. a hard working, very knowledgeable, great leader, and wonderful missionary. He is 20 was baptized with his family when he was 9. got a great knowledge and love for the gospel and knows how to baptize. it is crazy all of the changes that are going on here on the mission. there is a quote in PMG that says if we want to reach higher goals and see better results we need to change how we doe things. not really a quote on quote but the general view. every zone leader companionship changed. everyone has a new mentality and we are working in a more efficient way with the members. 

tomorrow we are going to be having a zone meeting. not really a zone conference. it is when the ZL get all of his zone together and we share what we got from our big meeting and share it to them so that we are all on the same page. it is going to be incredible! the spirit is going to be so strong we are going to receive so much revelation and are going to be finding more of God's children who He has prepared to enter into the waters of baptism. 

roberto and mirta are excited and so ready for their wedding and baptism this saturday. Nestor and Mirna (recent converts) are helping them so much. you can just see the power of the spirit working within Nestor he is incredible i have never seen anyone so converted in my life. he just has this huge desire to share the gospel. last night he pulled us aside to talk to us how he wants to help us more than he is and to go out and do home teaching and everything to help activate the ward and share the gospel. hes got a fever!!! and everyone is going to start getting it because it is contagious (don't know how to spell). we are also working with a partial family who are planning on getting married and the husband baptized on the 25. the zone is exploding as well we are so blessed to have so many wonderful leaders and missionaries in our zone who are declaring the gospel of Christ with all of their might.

I got an interesting letter this week. it was from two people. one was an update from Kevin Robinson and his fam, and the other one was from Parker Maurice Wilson, me. i learned a couple of things. first is that I'm grateful that  i learned how to write in english because before when i was 15 i couldn't at all. i am more grateful that i am where i am right now because that is what i wrote in my letter. that i should be on a full time mission serving the Lord bringing the plenitude of His gospel to everyone. now I'm going to write myself another one for the next five years to see where i will be. its a good day to have a vision.

well fam mission work is the best work. I'm tired and hungry at times but it doesn't really matter because when you have people excited and willing to receive the gospel all of your tiredness and hunger just fly away. i am so grateful for this gospel. I testify in the name of my savior Jesus Christ that it is true and that this is His true church. the atonement is real and changes lives, it has changed mine so much. looking back two years ago i was a completely different person than i am today. i have changed for the best and will continue because my vision is set and clear. Return to live in the celestial kingdom with my Father in Heaven, my savior Jesus Christ, and my future wife, children, and family. Nothing else is more important.

love you all and thanks for all that you do you are always in my prayers.
