FAntastic Monday Querido Familia,
Thank you mom and dad for your emails and prayers in our behalf, The work of the lord here in the area is progressing more and more faster, and with each coming day I just can´t believe that the days are coming shorter and I just have to work harder.
Wow The gilbert temple is having its dedication this week. What a tremendous and most spiritual experience it will be to be among the presence of our lords servant the prophet Thomas S. Monson. Send me lots of photos and videos if you can so I can see this wonderful occasion. When the hondorous temple was dedicated we were able to see it here in nicaragua and be apart of this wonderful experience. Our ancestors will be present, along with millions awaiting there temple work to be done and the spirit of the lord will be upon its people and those who live in gilbert.
This is his work and glory to bring to pass the immortally and eternal life of man. The start of this past week,
Elder Compton and I had all the attitude that the Lord would guide us to those who were searching for the truth. It all started when all our appointments fell through the day and we continued with faith and determination to find a family and new people to teach. As we searched and searched and went to other appointments it looked as if old scratch was at his work again. we were not finding much to say the least, when suddenly, my companion Elder Compton received a revelation. He told me we should visit sister Marta, a investigator, and when we went to them I had a impression that I had to contact a sister who was cleaning her yard outside. And as we began to contact to my surprise, she was not very positive at all and had spoken with missionaries before but visits another church, and respectively said she did not want to hear our message. I was a little confused why I felt to contact her. When were about to leave to Martha , suddenly a woman and her sister called out to us. Directly we turned to them and began to talk to them and we found that missionaries had spoken with them many many years ago but after they had they never could find them later.
The the first words they said were, do you have information about the church of Jesus Christ and said they wanted to learn more. I felt like the missionary on the best two years when he finds the man again in the shop and gets so excited! What was crazy was they had many wonderful questions and asked if we could visit them. It was an experience I 'll never forget because it showed me that the Lord knows those who are seeking the gospel and preach my gospel says you will find those who receive you, and there are many truths waiting for this .
I am grateful to be serving in Ruben Dario. Sunday night , we visited with our loving Bishop Rivas. He is a bishop of love and talked with him yesterday to better plan the work and asked for a blessing from his hands. It is essential that we are united or otherwise we will not progress as a district , area , companionship and personal . Thank you for your letters. Onward with Faith in every foot step, and I love my lord and redeemer. Christ is the reason behind it all and he will lead us to those who are searching.
Well I don´t have much time remaining but I sure do love you all, keep up the great job of inviting others to come unto christ. Have a fantastic crazy fun spiritual week and I will talk with you all next week...
Elder Boyd
