Six months down and a year to go! Time flies when you are doing the work of the Lord :) I am just going to give a little
shout out to one of the recent converts named Talito :) Talito is such an amazing person. He does not have much in the
way of the world but he has everything when it comes to God. I can imagine our Heavenly Father looking down at him
and just being so proud of the person that he is. He shared a beautiful miracle that he has seen in his life. He suffers from
a lot of health issues and his body is old but his spirit is strong. Ever Sunday he drives 2 investigators and 2 recent
converts to church and wakes up at 6 am to go and gather everyone. He has only been a member himself for 3 months
but he does everything in his power to help others on Sunday mornings. During one of our lessons we were talking
about tender mercies. He quietly talked about one of the tender mercies that he has seen. Every morning it is really
hard for him to get out of bed. Not just because he is tired but because physically it is demanding. He then went on
to account the goodness of God on the sabbath mornings. He spoke of the miracle that he receives every Sunday
morning when he wakes up. He wakes up with out any pain and without any trouble every Sunday morning. He
said that he knows if he keeps sacrificing his time, car, life to helping others to get to church then he will continue
to have this tender mercy every morning. He is an amazing example of living the gospel and putting Christ first
over our own personal comfort. But the one thing I love about this the most is that Heavenly Father knows that
Talito needs this blessing in order to keep doing his work.
Tender Mercies are real I like what Nephi said once "8 And after I had traveled for the space of many hours in
darkness, I began to pray unto the Lord that he would have amercy on me, according to the multitude of his tender
mercies. " There are so many tender mercies out there and sometimes we are just too blind to see them. Keep your
eyes open to all of those mercies :) Thank you for reading this weeks email Grandma and Grandpa and my other 3
faithful followers ;) I looooooove you alllll
