Heavenly Father is wonderful!

This week I've learned the importance of how obedience brings blessings! This week has been an amazing week! We worked with members and found new people and at the end of everyday our agendas would be full for the next day! We would go to bed everyday dead tired but it was an amazing day! So one day we were contacting and we contacted this really rich looking house and they had a pool in their backyard which means that you have money! Here in Nandaime is pretty poor and so to see that we were shocked! But the husband answered the door and told us to come back later. So we came back later and him and his wife were there and they didn't seem too happy. We entered into the house and they both sat down with us and basically the husband started to say that they have marriage problems. He told us how he used to have a drinking problem and how he`s really open with his wife but his wife is really quiet and doesn't want to talk about her feelings. So we started to teach them how the gospel can help them and they're not very religious but they agreed to start praying. They told us they couldn't go to church this past Sunday but want to go this Sunday! 

Also, we are teaching a man who I never thought would be interested in the gospel at all. His name is Alveniz. We were teaching a less active a few weeks ago and her ex husband and her are still friends and he comes over to her house every night to be with his kid and help her out because he lives down the street. Anyway, he never seemed like the person who would want the gospel until one day I asked him when he was going to come to church with us. And then basically we started to talk about the gospel and now he comes to church and wants to learn more. He has changed completely from the man he was before! In just 2-3 weeks he has put his love and trust in the Lord and wants to learn more about the gospel. Before he was catholic but he hated being catholic because he didn't believe in anything they did at church. And he was a little scared to go to our church because he thought it was going to be the same but he loved it! We asked him if he would be baptized and he said YES but that he needs a little bit of time because he wants to learn more! Please pray for this man he is trying to change to do good but his family is really Catholic. 

Also there`s this man named Juan Carlos who has a son named Pedro but they can't get baptized because he`s not married to his wife and his wife doesn't want to get married or doesn't believe in marriage. Please pray for his wife that her heart will be softened because he wants to get baptized and pay his tithing! 

Love you all so much and just know that God is great and we can do everything that is expedient through him. The Atonement of Christ changed my life and I know it can change the world, just like Christ like love!
