Week 72: "We truly saw a lot of miracles this week!"

This week was another amazing week! It flew by! We are working with Corto Plazos in our area right now, they are young men in the church who are preparing to serve a mission and they come and serve with us for a little while. It has been absolutely amazing! Instead of one companionship we have two in our ward in order to get more work done! This weekend a family from Artigas came to visit us here in Rivera, the family Fierreira. They are such an amazing family! They came with us to some lessons and then they came to church with us on Sunday. But this week was filled with miracles!  We truly saw a lot of miracles this week! In church we had 8 investigators and two of them, a family, will be baptized this Saturday! I cannot wait!  Also, as the zone, everybody is killing it! They are all working so hard! As a stake we had 771 people in church, we started with 600 and had 48 investigators in church...it was absolutely incredible! I learned a lot this week...one thing I learned is that it is better to be trusted by God than it is to be loved by God, because God loves everyone but doesn´t trust everyone! I want to bear my testimony that I know this church is the one and only true church. The only church that holds the power to access the power of the atonement in order to receive the remission of our sins. I know that God is our Heavenly Father, that Jesus is the Prince of Peace and the author of our salvation. I know that the heavens were opened and the first two missionaries, the Father and the Son, appeared unto Joseph Smith and gave him the keys to restore the true church of Christ. I know that the Book of Mormon is the most correct book on this Earth, and in this book holds the key to peace in this life and guidance for the eternal life.
