Week 59: President Nelson



Hey all, 
This week was super awesome!!! The main highlights went down on Saturday! We had a day full packed! So we had a transmission  from Lima of President Nelson and Gary G. Stevenson to all the missionaries in Peru, which was super awesome!! Hermana Wendy Nelson gave a really good talk, my favorite line from the talk ¨Satan is mean." Then she talked about how Satan is always fighting to stop good. 
Afterwards we had a baptism planned. It turns out the font was broken and all the water leaked from the font. Then it just so happened that there was no more water. Then the investigator and his family had problems and wouldn't show up till an hour later. So we had a to rush and find another chapel to baptize. Luckily by a miracle on Thursday there was an open chapel in another chapel and the baptism font was still full. So we all rushed over there. But after lots of work we were able to baptize Jaren (Ya- ren) who is 11 yrs old. Then we all had to rush back to the stake center and had another conference with all the members and Russel M. Nelson. He started his talk in English with a translator, then out of no where he was like, I want to talk to you all in Spanish now, dismissed his translator and then just starting talking perfect Spanish! The gift of tongues was so real. He didn't make a single mistake for his 20 minuteish talk. He did have a gringo accent but it was super cool and amazing and really fortified my testimony that he really is a prophet of god! 

That's about it for the week, it was super awesome! 

This upcoming week we have a conference with Elder Held from the South America north west area presidency. So we will be going to Piura on Friday to hear from him so that should be super awesome!! Everyday here is the best day ever!!! 

Love, 
Elder Luke Gruber
