Dear Family!!
This week has been awesome
week I received my kid his name is Elder Bell he is from Orem Utah. He is a
really great missionary and is going to make a amazing one it really is a honor
to train especially in this mission.
But we also saw more miracles
we had a baptism!!!! Which we didn't even plan for we were just working and I
got the impression that we should visit a investigator that had been talking to
the missionaries for over a year!! and she had been waiting so long to get
baptized because the other missionaries wanted that she could get married to
the man of here children. but the problem is that she is from Salvador and doesn't
have her papers so its super complicated to get them. But not only that I began
to talk to her and really ask her what she wanted and she told me she wanted to
get baptized and then I asked her if she really wanted to get married to this
guy and she said no not at all and turned out that he wasn't even living there
anymore and they hadn't been a intimate couple for over 14 years so I called
the elders and they gave permission and she was baptized that Sunday and we had
a miracle baptism.
I am beginning to see
that God wants to bless us we just have to go to him and put our trust in him
and make covenants with him in our prayers every night and that is the difference
between and normal prayer and a fervent pray or a powerful one like it says in
the scriptures I love the example of this in Enos 1:2-5 and How first he had
the desire in his heart to know the mysteries of God and second he began to pour out his souls and
speak with him and listen and make covenants with him based upon the promptings
of the Spirit and more importantly he lived and kept his covenants and desired
for more when he finally received answers and blessing that were in his heart.

and that we should always follow these 5 steps so that we
have powerful prayers not just normal ones were we talking and then just go to
bed or get up and do the normal day routine.
that we need to follow these five steps every time
1.Desire
2.Speak
3.Listen
4. Make convents
5. Live them
and that's how you
progress get to know your father and receive blessing and miracles.
And I know that it works because I do it every single day
and have witnessed the difference.
But there is also knew that our mission is doing we have 4 assistants
know 2 that are normal and 2 that only travel around the mission to teach and
help missionaries to complete their purpose better and we have the chance to
work with them and one of them is my trainer elder osegura so I went and did
divisions with him and that was really really fun to be able to work with him
again probably for the last time because he finishes in December. But the
mission is just getting crazier and crazier as President is changing more
things but it's cool to see the difference.
But I love you all
Elder Toma
