The Hope of the Resurrection...

Hello Everyone!

Hope everyone had a wonderful Spring Break/ Easter Week...For us it was quite hard everyone was leaving for vacations and others were going to Family Meals and parties...It was crazy haha...

This week I was able to go back over to Pesquiera to do a baptismal interview...We are so pleased with the little branch over there it is progressing rapidly...All of the teenagers are inviting all of their friends and they just keep on coming...hahha They are having a Basketball and Soccer games at the church 3 or 4 times a week haha...It is really cool...

One experience that I had this week was as follows...Saturday night we were contacting just trying to be able to teach someone...everyone was pretty much busy...We were knocking doors for pretty much all day long...and we were about to call it a night...we were just exhausted haha...but we kept on going and tried knocking a few doors in another part of town...and the 3rd door we knocked a young couple answered the door...The women was quite uncontrolable and the man just looked really sad...We presented ourselves and we asked if we could enter their house and share the video message of Easter...she told us that they were about to leave their house to go to Family Members house because the womans grandfather had past away a day before...We explained our message a little more and they invited us to come in...We shared the Easter message and both started to cry when the video said that we could see our family members again after this life...The spirit was really strong, Afterwards we were able to bear our testimonies of the Resurrection and Life after Death...They accepted another appointment in a heartbeat...They told us that we were Angels that had fallen from Heaven...

After this experience I started thinking about how great of a knowlege we have....The knowlege that we WILL be able to see our family members and friends after this life...and If we do our part here we can live with them for eternity...We are so blessed to have this wonderful knowlege and such hope...

I love you all
