La Verdad‏

Kyle I totally was singing that song to wake my companion up in the morning haha

Mom something super important i just sent a package home, but i may have accidentally sent it to the old houses address. So you may need to tell the post office that, any maybe the new home owners too in a couple of weeks. And for a package i want more pictures, but other than that i cant think of anything that i absolutely need. Thanks mom! Love you

Dad mom sent me the pictures of the lake, and it looks just like Chile. And as you were describing the hike and the rain, that sounded just like Chile too hahaha You´ll have to take me there some day, i´m sure i´ll feel right at home haha.

Nick And Truman I got your letters this week. I´ll have something on you way in the mail in just a little bit.

So quote from this week. A missionary asked me how i have such a good spanish accent, and how i speak spanish so well and i said ´´Have you ever seen the movie Nacho Libre?´´ He then told me yes and i reply ´´If you can apply this movie to your life, you will never have any problems with speaking spanish. Ever´´ hahahahahaha And it is so funny how true that is hahaha

So story from this week. I was in a town called San Pablo. Visiting a less active family. And the missionary i was with was going to share a scripture with them. So when they did not pull out their own Scriptures i decided that i would let them use some of the books of Mormon that i had with me me. So i set a couple of them down on the Table, and they just left them there. My companion then shared a scripture from the book of mormon, and they didnt open it up or anything, and after my companion shared a scripture he asked me if i wanted to share something and i thought ´´Yup i sure do, because anybody who does not accept a copy of the book of mormon, and does not excitedly open it to read it, does not have a testimony of the book of Mormon´´

So  I started pretty bold. I started by Asking them ´´When was the last time you read in the Book of Mormon?´´ And then could not remember the last time. Honestly i wasnt surprised. And so i said ´´Ok we are going to read a part of the introduction together´´ And then i asked them to open up the books, and read a couple of the paragraphs there. And there is one Paragraph that says´´ We invite all people everywhere, both male, and female, to read the Book of Mormon, Ponder its message in your heart, and pray to know if its true´´ So we read that and i said ´´I really like how this paragraph says all people everywhere. It doesnt say, we invite all people investigating the church to read it. It says we invite all people everywhere to read it. It says that this book has written by prophets of God So that all people, Active members of the church, investigators, missionaries, less active members, All people everywhere can read it and ponder in their hearts, and pray about to know if its true.

The last time i prayed about if the book of Mormon is true or noty was just the other day, I just finished reading it again in my mission, and I know its true. And i know that when you read the Book of Mormon, and pray about, the holy ghost with testify to you that it is true, you will know that Jesus Christ lives. You will know that Joseph Smith was a prophet of God, you will know that Thomas S Monson is a living prophet of God. You will know that i Book of Mormon is True. I promise you, that if you read the Book of Mormon, you will know that it is true. I promise you this because i have done it. I know that the Book of Mormon is the Word of God. I know that the teaching that are written in this book are true.´´

I then asked ´´Will you read the Book of Mormon. And pray to know if its true´´ And right away they answered Yes. I have no Doubt that they are going to start coming to Church again when they read the book of Mormon. Because its true. But that day was a pretty good day. The Missionary work in that town has not really progressed at all over the past couple of months due to a couple of problems that previous missionaries has caused there. But i went there with the mindset that i was going to give the missionaries there alot of work to do. Because i am really good friends with one of the Elders there, and so i know that he will do a good job taking care of the work there. So that day i went to San Pablo, and i had 3 people that we had just met accept Baptism dates. And those stories are even better, but i have plans to write those in a letter to Truman. My boy Elder Spriggs has alot of work to do in San Pable hahaha.

I love you all keep me posted!!! Read the Book of Mormon. Its True
