Hello tout le monde,
It's been good living here in the last little while.
We haven't really been able to see many of our Amis this
week, but we did have a great rendezvous with LeBrun and Elodie. We taught the first
part of the Plan du Salut. I love sitting in rendezvous with Lebrun because he
understands so well and I don't feel like we have to make a strong effort to
try to make him understand, because he just gets it. The spirit is always
really present in the room whenever we go over. It's awesome to get to see them
see the blessings of the gospel in their lives.
We went to Annie's a few days ago, and she still wants to
see us it's just her boyfriend who was upset with us that one day. But she's
not going to let that keep us from teaching her. We hope that by counselling
together, they can both agree on taking the discussions from us, not just
Annie.
...And just like that Conference came around and left
again. It was the last General Conference I'll have as a missionary and I've
got to say it was great. It was very uplifting and edifying and motivating. Some
of my favourite talks were Elder Rasband's about following the Spirit, Elder
Bednar's about being called to serve, and others.
May we all enjoy the wonderful gospel in our lives and
have a great week.
Love,
Elder Aburto
2nd Counselor in
the General Relief Society Presidency?
Wow. Yeah, mom is a GA, that's crazy. It's interesting
because I felt it coming. After you guys mentioned last week that Sœur Burton
would get released I just felt like mami would get called. It's interesting too
because I think Elder Hein could feel it as well as he asked me about it the
day before. I could feel that President Uchdorf was going to read off mami's
name and he did. I was expecting it so I wasn't really in shock. I know God
makes his decisions precisely and carefully and doesn't just do things
randomly.
I know mom will do great as 2nd Counselor in the General
Relief Society and yes you do speak good enough English. Just as Zidane returned
to Real Madrid, mami returns to Salt Lake in a new position.
And she's from la cantera as well.
Viva Nicaragua!
Viva Nicaragua!
Viva Nicaragua!
Love,
Elder Aburto
