This weeek on The District

So this week was fantastic and very spiritual. We had the wonderful oportunity to go to Cuenca on Thursday to listen and learn from our wonderful President and his leaders. It was so spiritual and I got the chance to sing Lead Kindly Light in spanish with another elder and 3 sisters (We had 30 minutes to practice) Everything we went well and one thing I loved was from Psalms 147:4 (I could be wrong with the verse) That every star has a name. And what have WE DONE with our names. What do people say about our names. Not to be prideful but it`s true. We do something with our name!

Next experience for the week was Sunday, we have a family in the zone that has been coming to church every week. They want to be baptized but maybe they are just waiting for a sign. The 4 elders the last hour of church had a little one on one with the family to find out what they were really thinking. The best part of that lesson for me was listening, watching the other elders teach and share scriptures and listen to the responses. I was able to listen to the spirit wishper to me, ask them to pray. I asked them but we keep talking. So we lost  the right spirit and at the end they prayed and didn`t feel the right peace. 

D&C42:14, We can`t and won`t teach without the spirit. We must act when the spirit tells us to do it, in that very instant! So follow the nike theme (But President Uchtdorf said it first hehe) Just do it! Follow the spirit when it tells you to! 

Love you guys soooo much!
