It's been an exciting week! Peter told us for the first time
he feels that he has truly received an answer from Heavenly Father regarding
the Book of Mormon. He told he KNOWS it's true, then he requested baptism... So
he's doing great! His wife actually joined us for one of the lessons but just
kinda hid in the back.
We had a Chinese member give us some a nice duck to eat after
our fast yesterday.
We taught the Espiritu family a few days ago. They are the
coolest family. We met the mom washing clothes by a members house and we asked
when her husband would be home. She said the next day so we came back and he is
super friendly as well. One by one, their kids started to flow into their
house, they have 6 little kids but lots of cousins. So we were able to teach
their whole family about the temple and we told them we were looking for
families to teach. They loved the message and their family was the first family
at church on Sunday, they beat all the members there and waited to have someone
open the gates! Then the mom and the dad and all their 6 kids went and waited
in the chapel for church to start! It was awesome to have them there on fast
Sunday to hear testimonies of other members and they really seemed to enjoy it!
Santa Cruz is cool area and we are meeting with lots of cool
members and have some great lots of potential here with these families. We had
to drop Norma, even though they are 80+, her husband got jealous of us and
didn't want us coming by... Interesting. But lots of doors have been opening up
and it's a good time to be a missionary.
Love,
Elder Roberts
