This week was super awesome. I learned the importance of the holy ghost so much! We have a less active family that we have been working with for a while. We have been doing tons of service for them and visiting them at least once a week. We went by on Thursday and I had no idea what to share with them. We said an opeing prayer and the spirit whispered to me exactly what I needed to teach! It was such a spiritual lesson. We talked about Matthew 16:19 and the temple sealing. I had them talk about their sealing and how they felt.
Something that President Maluenda told us the other day also really blew my mind. He told us that when we partake of the sacrament we renew ALL of the covenants that we have made. I told the family that when they partake of the sacrament they are renweing the covenant that they made in the temple. They commited to come to church and they came!! They also brought their less active son and his family so we had a lot of people at church!! It was super amazing!!
I also learned the contrary. On Saturday night I had the feeling that we needed to pass by one of our investigators to make sure everything was okay to come to church the next day. But I ignored and they didn't show up. I have seen so many blessings in my msission from following the spirit and need to do it 100 percent of the time! Have an awesome week!!
Love, Elder Hurst
