Another Week Gone

This week was super good! 

A lot of really good things happened! 

On Tuesday we had a super good lesson with Brother Romero, the man with the baptismal date of February 18. We taught the Laws of Tithing and Fasting. Before the lesson he had a few things about them that he wasn't sure about. He didn't have the full picture. But we were able to fill in all the gaps and help him better understand why we do both. He accepted the commitment to pay tithing and fast offerings! We are using the pamphlets and focusing on the blessings that come and tieing it all back to the fact that our Father wants to bless us. 

On Thursday we were able to teach both the Word of Wisdom and the Law of Chastity. Again he had a little bit of confusion at the Word of Wisdom, but by using the pamphlets and putting it in a perspective that him, as a coach, could understand, we were able to explain everything. We focused heavily on the blessings and he completely understands. He doesn't drink alcohol. He hasn't had coffee in 3 weeks. And he said he would start looking for herbal tea substitutes before we even committed him to live the commandment! He said "this is the easy commandment". I guess the praying and reading as a family is a little bit harder haha. But the Law of Chastity went very smoothly. he loves that commandment for his daughter's sake. They are 14 and 17. He thinks the standards of the church are great! He was curious about the way missions work and transfers and all sorts of different things because you were there last week. He thinks it's super cool with all the organization we have. We explained how we came up with the baptismal date of February 18, and he thought it was super cool! He loves that we pray for him and for his family. He is so awesome and he came to church for all three hours yesterday! He came to priesthood for the first time! He fits right in. Many in the ward are his friends. I love this man and he is sooooo cool!!! He really is the best and has so much potential in the gospel!!! I love that man!!!!!

This week has been a lot of fun and just good things have happened Brother Romero is a huge focus of ours because his baptism is in 12 days. So thats why its all about him

I love all y'all and each y'all
