Jacob the Mexico Missionary: Zone Monkey Shirts

I hope that you all had a great week and are all feeling fantastic. I have just been here working in Mexico and reading and using the talks from General Conference a ton!!! This past general conference has been so powerful we have been trying to share the talks with as much people as we can.

We first shared the talk of President Thomas S. Monson from last conference with a menos active family here in Izucar. They run a icecream buisness here and are almost always working. We are trying to get them to focus on the basics again like Reading the Book of Mormon, Attending church, and Praying (RAP jaja). When we had the oportunity to share our testimonies and this video with this family to invite them to read the Libro de Mormón. After sharing those two things they started remembering how God had helped them through some rough trials and helped them gain their icecream buisness. It was a cool experience for me.

We were also able to share with Hermana Nancy the talk from Tad R. Mccalister coupled with the powerful Alma 32. We hope that this will help her overcome her doubts and crush her temptations.

With one of my favorite investigators, who is named Ricardo, we shared the first vision and the same video from Tad R. Mccalister. This lesson was especially important because he had still not taken the challenge to pray about Joseph Smith and the Book of Mormon. It was one of those lessons that just emanates with the Spirit. I know that God is carefully preparing every one of his children to recieve the Gospel. I also know that he is relying on us to invite, share, and bring the spirit into their lives. I Know That The Book Of Mormon Is True and that it is the key to the questions we have in life.

We also had interchanges with Elders from Tlapa and Acatlan, which were very fun to see old friends and meet the new missionaries coming to the mission.
