Dearest Friends and Family,
This week has been a good one, if not a bit long.
We have had to drop a number of investigators this week for
various reasons. The reality is that there are some people in the world that
have been placed in a path to receive the gospel and bless the lives of their
family, ancestors and friends because of it, but others have been prepared in
the opposite direction by an opposite force. As missionaries it is our job to
find those people that have been prepared in some way to receive the message of
the restoration and give it to them. So, sometimes, we find that someone who we
once thought had been prepared to receive the gospel was actually not quite
there. It is a sad reality that all people entering the mission field will
learn.
On a brighter note, we continue to find people with promise and
will continue working with them. It is a truly rewarding experience to find a
person, teach them, and see them come to realize the truthfulness of the
message.
A bit of facts about the mission, in case anyone was wondering:
Our house here in Los Andes is located in the middle of the line area between
the ghetto area and the larger nicer homes. It's livable, but I have seen nicer
mission homes. Our Zone leaders home is a mansion, comparatively. We also live
exclusively on the second floor. It's like a weird duplex thing. And, no, we do
not have more than one companionship. That's actually not allowed in our
mission.
Sé que la Iglesia de Jesucristo de los Santos de los Últimos
Dias es la Iglesia de Jesucristo en la Tierra hoy. Sé que los recursos de la
Iglesia son inspiradas por el Espiritu Santo.
Los Amo,
Elder Lambert
