Hello Family and friends!
This week was a great week as well. The heat continues to
get more intense. It has been hovering around 95ish. The good thing though is
that we are right next to the ocean. So every evening at around 4 or 5 it cools
down pretty nice. It also means that the people give us more to drink and they
have given us a lot of water of tamarindo. It is one of my favorites so the
heat hasnt been so bad.
We had a lot of learning opportunities this week. On Friday
we had a conference with our Mission President. It was a great conference, we
focused a lot on prayer and the doctrine of it. We talked about how we pray to
our Heveanly Father in the name of Jesus Christ and we recieve our answer
through the Holy Ghost. It is a simple doctrine but many do not understand it
or how to use it. We have to understand who we are talking to, how it gets
there and how we get the response. If we understand this we will be able to
recieve the answers and blessings we are searching for.
General Conference was also a great learning opportunity. It
was great to listen to the prophets and apostles voice again and see all of the
people there to learn. My favorite experience was with Pedro. I talked with him
a while before the conference and then he kept telling me how excited he was to
listen to the prophet. Mayra and Freddy also came to the conference. They told
us how they were really praying and preparing for baptism. We were not able to
work as much this week but it was great to be able to learn together from
our general authorities.
This week we will be going to Villahermosa for another
conference with our president. It will be great to be with our mission
president again.
Until next week!
Elder Lightheart
