Bosques: La Tierra Prometida (Bosques: The Promised Land)

Ok I know it is getting old, but I love Bosques. This last week we had a lot of family home evenings. Mondays was with the familia Cabañas. They are a part member family where the dad and the kids are members but the mom is not. We taught about the ten commandments and talked about why it is important to keep the ten commandments. The dad needs to get divorced before they can get married and that process takes a while and a lot of money. Our next was with the familia Perez, a less active family who has a hard story. They came in contact with the church a long time ago and were baptized quickly. After a few years all of the kids became inactive and that made it hard for them to keep going but they have kept their fire going and some of their kids are becoming active again. The Elders in Bosques have worked with this family for a long time and now the granddaughter Valentina wants to get baptized.

We had a great night lesson with the Familia Perdomo, some new investigators who are very cool. German and Maria Perdomo are family members of a sister in our ward who told us that they wanted to hear the lessons but were too scared to go to church to talk with the missionaries. We had a great lesson with them and they committed to come to church. They did! Saturday and Sunday I came down with something and basically slept all day those days but today I feel better and ready to take on the week!

(This is a family that Fonzy was working with before he left his last area Maxi and Janina. They were baptized last week by his old companion Elder Smith.)

I don’t have too much time left but I know that the church is true, that families are eternal. I know that Russel M. Nelson is a prophet of god. Oh, how wonderful it is to have the guidance of god on the earth.

Love Elder Cahoon!
