Quiche

M is officially a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints! She told us over and over when we went to see her this week. :) she's so happy and has talked to both her mom and brother about speaking to missionaries!

We got the best referrals this week! One was a lady from Argentina. She has been attending an English ward up in Conroe with her sister and brother in law who were just baptized. She doesn't speak a ton of English so we convinced her to come to the  Spanish ward this week. :) She's really sweet and she asked us in our first lesson what it takes to become a member of the church!

We were invited to a Guatemalan birthday party this week. It was pretty fun until we realized only her close family was invited... And us. Not to mention they spoke the dialect of Quiche so we had no idea what they were saying. At least we got some tres leches.

I finished Mormon in the Book of Mormon this week! I'm almost finished with the whole book in Spanish! It's a bummer that all that amazing stuff happened when Christ  visited the Nephites, but they quickly forgot and were destroyed. There's still hope though. I love Moroni's words at the end of the book:

Mormon 9:
36 And behold, these things which we have desired concerning our
brethren, yea, even their restoration to the knowledge of Christ, are
according to the prayers of all the saints who have dwelt in the land.

37 And may the Lord Jesus Christ grant that their prayers may be
answered according to their faith; and may God the Father remember the
covenant which he hath made with the house of Israel; and may he bless
them forever, through faith on the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

Through our faith we can restore others to a knowledge of Christ.
