haha ill give some stories here
sister leonord fidalgo
shes inactive for a long time
she was the person who said she had demons in her house.....
we casted those demons right out of there... slam dunk right on satans face!
anyway shes awsummm... she has schizophrenia or however you
spell it
she has been smoking for 30 years and because of her schizo
disease its pretty hard to overcome
anywhooosle we made an awesome plan for her to quit smoking.
and shes doing it! she has reduced her cigggys and not smoking the puff puff so
much anymore!
man shes crazy but so sweet...
anyways i went to her house on my b day and we sang her some
hymns
turns out my voice still sucks.... but she says its good :)
anywhoosles she felt like she needed to give me a present
for my b day!
soooo what do you know she goes and finds a book and giftd
that to me!
mega sweet old timers book... probs like 100 years old
we got her to churh the other way by the way and were
getting there!
ummm man so many things id like to say but i dont know how
my time is looking her on email!
rosio
shes 19 and im still trying to figure if shes a little cooky
in the nogging
she has assisted the church for 6 months but has a problem
with baptism
yet she wants to go on a mission??? not sure how that works
but we have a baptism date this saturday!
she has passed baptism dates all the time because she says
no
but we had some super spiritual experiences with her this
past week
haha classic.... WE MADE HER CRY BECAUSE THE SPIRIT WAS
STABBING HER RIGHT IN THE INSIDES!
she was almost scared in one lesson because she had never
felt the spirit like that
she wouldnt talk and kept saying "i hate you guys"
"you make me feel bad"
little did she know the feeling what she had was her gaining
a testimony
she has completely changed within this past week.
honestly its been a complete miracle to see the difference
within her
she always says there is something different about the
lessons that we have with her
she has had billions of lessons with a bunch of missionaries
yet this time its different
i thank the lord for that
ramon and angela
ramon is the guy that we were able to get back to church
he was baptized about 7 months ago and never fully gave up
drinking
it lead him into saying he was done with the church
we worked on teaching him for weeks and he said he wasnt
coming back
it literally broke my heart seeing how much pain that put
his wife in because she is completely active and the gospel has changed her
life
she said if he didnt come back to church and stop drinking
she would leave him
one lesson we had with him was really special
he said he was done with the church
in this lesson i had no idea what the heck to say
i prayed and prayed in this time to feel something... some
sort of words that could help him out... to get him back on the right path
i bore my testimony and started crying pretty much beggin
him not to throw his life away... i have seen what drugs and alcohol to do
people and i begged for him not to make that desicion and see his life be
wasted off of drinking... after i bore my testimony i didnt know if it did
anything
well he has been to church 3 weeks in a row since then
hes a new person... and has such a strong testimony
he still drinks a little bit here and there but hes getting
there
yesderday we were at there house and he looked at me and
said "you changed my life with your testimony, im not throwing my life
away with alcohol, thank you for being the angel in my life"
in this moment i thought... wow thats pretty cool... my
testimony really helped him out... MY words helped him out
then 10 seconds later i thought.. "wow cole you are a
really big dumby arent ya"
i remembered that i had no idea what to tell ramon... i begged
to the lord that he would help me out... he would help me say something to
ramon that would make a difference... and it did.
i didnt do that at all... pure guidance from the lord
well i gotta get going here!
man i love you guys! slam dunk of a family and friends
you best believe i broke out some sweet dance moves when
people were singing me happy birthday! #slamdunk #ooooyeahbabygirl
#sweetdanceslams
in a bit
smell ya later
love,
Elder Myers
