How was your: Week? New Years? Beginning of 2019?? I hope that everything is going well for all! As for me here in Bolivia, things are different but great (: As I mentioned last week, I was transferred from Sucre to Cochabamba and I must admit that it has been a HUGE change! The weather, city, people, etc. are all so much different! However, I'm already loving it and I will get used to it eventually (;
Well, as always, I would love to mention a couple of the amazing people that we are visiting (: First off: Israel is an amazing man that was presented to us by a great family of members this past week. He is a carpenter and a very, very nice man. We were able to teach him about the Restoration and the Book of Mormon this past week and everything took him by surprise. In his words,"I had always heard about the 'Mormons' but didn't think that they believed anything like this!" He is amazing and we look forward to our upcoming appointments (: Second off: Alejandra is an amazing woman and is the wife of a less-active member. We are working with them both so that José, her husband, can become active Alejandra can become a converted member of the Church. They both have a lot of faith and are amazing, so we really look forward to working with them (:
Well, I would now love to share a quick thought before saying goodbye for the week. Here in the city with my new companion, Elder Benancio, we have been tracting a lot. We have very few investigators and are trying to find more, so we find ourselves often walking through the streets, trying to talk with everyone that crosses our path. We have actually had good success and we look forward to seeing what comes of this work. But I want to talk about you all right now (: How many people cross your path every day? How many of those people do you think would be blessed by a knowledge of the Restored Gospel? The answer is every single one. Everyone needs this Gospel, even if they don't realize hat they do. I know that it would be unreasonable to ask you to throw everything you have to do aside and preach, but I feel like we can all do a little bit better with loving our neighbor by sharing the amazing knowledge that we have with them. I promise that if you take the time to share this Gospel with family, friends, coworkers, etc. that your mouth will be filled with the necessary words, that your testimony will grow, and that you will feel the blessings of the Gospel, and really of Jesus Christ, in more abundance in your lives.
I love you all! I hope that you have an amazing week!
Love,
Elder Wynn
