Hey everyone!
How are you?? I hope that you all had an amazing week and that this next one is even better! Well, as for us here in Bolivia, things are going great! We are really enjoying the work here in La Chimba and hope that we can continue seeing progress. Thinking of investigators here in La Chimba, I would love to mention Máxima, Alexander, and Douglas.
These three are the mother and two sisters of Miranda, a recent convert from before I got here. Miranda has done a great job of sharing the Gospel with her family members and we are loving the opportunity to visit them. We have been able to take them to a Family Home Evening with an amazing family of members and also they are making great efforts to read the scriptures, pray, and attend church. They are truly amazing and we look forward to the opportunity to keep visiting them and helping them along this Gospel Path :)
Well, this past week, I have thought a lot about General Conference and the amazing messages that were shared. I was personally touched by the talk of Tad R. Callister, the former Sunday School President. He talked about the Atonement of Jesus Christ and the amazing impact that it has on our lives. More than anything, I want to speak to those that still feel guilty because of past mistakes. As all that know me know quite well, I am nowhere near perfect. Before the mission, like anyone else, I committed mistakes and, every once in a while, feel guilt for my past errors. However, this talk by Brother Callister helped me so much. According to him, anyone that can feel the guidance of the Holy Ghost in their life can know that the Atonement of Jesus Christ is working for them. I hope that all of you know: Being worthy does not mean you are perfect. All of us are on the same journey of stumbling down the straight and narrow path that leads to eternal life and exaltation. Do your best. Work hard. Know that as you do this, repenting along the way for your mistakes, you are worthy in the eyes of the Lord and will be guided by His Holy Spirit so that your mistakes become less and less. If you don't feel the Atonement of Jesus Christ working in your lives every day, please, make the adjustments necessary so that you can feel this amazing power every day. I promise that it is worth it.
I love you all so much! Thank you so much for your prayers and support! Have an amazing week!
Elder Wynn
