Week 54 ~ Satan Doesn't Take P Days

Hola!!

We've had another great week here in Laredo!

This week we put our friend, George, on date for baptism!! Yay! And his brother, Roy, got the priesthood! Double yay!! So many miracles happening each week here in Larusalem.

We finally got the word that we are able to move into Phase 1!! All that basically means is that we can eat inside of restaurants and that we can go inside of people's houses if they invite us hahah. So that's exciting!! A step in the right direction for Texas :')

Funny experiences:

George was unable to make it to church on Sunday because he literally got locked inside his house. Like he couldn't get out. I don't even know how that happens hahah. The devil works hard to make sure people don't come to church smh.

Spiritual experience:

We're allowed to contact people at the park and on Saturday we were contacting some people and Sister Collins felt a prompting to contact some lady who seemed to be listening to us singing. So she went up and talked to that person with Sister Turner and I started to walk up but then Sister Christofferson and I decided to wait. Some guy walked by and we felt prompted to talk to him. By the end of both conversations we had found a family to teach and another new person!! It was so awesome. I'm grateful for the Spirit and the little promptings He gave both the sisters.

This week during our Come, Follow Me study I loved this quote by President Ocampo. He was talking about how we have to always keep our guard up against Satan. He said "Satan doesn't take pdays." That really hit me hard! We have to continuously keep working so that we don't fall into the traps he sets for us. He is never taking a break, he waits for us until we are in a moment that we are vulnerable and we have to be ready to stand up against that.

Sorry this email is so short, I don't really have much else to write about! I hope you all have a great week!

Love,

Sister Spackman
