Waldvogel

Hola a todos! I hope everyone is doing great. I don´t know where to begin but I am so happy for so many reasons. Enlai Keanu starts his journey in this life. He is born into a family that puts the Lord first. He will be loved by parents I know will love him. He has been trusted into their hands to raise him stong in the Gospel and just show him love. A lot has happend here in Spain. Elder Waldvogel starts his mission off strong. Igot the opportunity to get to know him and see him in the service of the Lord. He is missed here in the Bilbao mission and the Sestao district. He is home with his family and loved ones but we hope to see him soon. He and Elder Hutchison were teaching Celenia. She gained a testimony of the Book of Mormon and knows it is the word of God. Since he left we have been in a trio. I heard that she knows this is the true Church on the earth today. The Spirit bore testimony to her of the truth Elder Waldvogel taught her. I saw it in her as she was commited to be baptized and happily accpeted! She will be baptized on the twenty-eighth of June and recieve the Holy Ghost on the twenty-ninth. She has had to make changes in her life but she has the desire to change and listen to us as we teach her what her Heavenly Father wants her to know. Actually the Hermans and two of the other Elders each have someone that wants to be baptized on the same date. So we should have three baptisms once again shortly. As the world becomes more and more wicked or that is to say that people are ignoring what their heart tells them and are choosing not to follow their Savior, More and More people are coming unto Christ. We will all have to make that decision one day . . . what side will we choose . . . are we doing all we can to follow the Savior of the World . . . maybe we don´t know what exactly it means but the truth is out there . . . may we all be searching for it and find happiness.I can´t describe what a blessing it is not to be in Spain but because I get to labor in the Lord´s vineyard. This is His work and of this I testify. His teachings and authority are on the earth once again and I pray that I am humble enough to find all those that are looking but know not where to it. Elder Rodriguez.
