Letter #33 - New things are always here

Hello Family and Friends!

This week was the first time I saw lightning bugs! It was pretty cool and unexpected, I didnt know they had them here :) Everyone here drinks Crystal Light, almost every dinner we had, they offered us some, lol. We had another amazing Zone Conference featuring Elder Brent Nielson, and Elder Godoy. We talked about the atonement and he shared with us about the upcoming technology efforts the church is putting forward to help us do missionary work better. I am very excited to see what these new changes will bring.

We were talking with a member who didnt understand the power of the atonement of Jesus Christ. She shared some of her transgressions with us, but didnt know that they could be forgiven of and she could be clean from them. There are many people in the world that wish they could be forgiven and made clean from their mistakes. They do not know of the redeeming and enabling powers of Jesus Christ's atonement. Many people ask "Have you been saved by Grace?" Yes, I have. With a proper understanding of the atonement, we may also ask "Have you been changed by grace?"
As we share the gospel, or the good news, we can spread joy and actually obtain peace within ourselves and peace on earth.

We had a nice baptism for Autym, and this saturday we will have a baptism service for Mike. Nita came to Autym's baptism, and she said she felt the spirit there! YES!
