God Loves You 10/04/21

Hey everyone! My first full week here in Newnan! I feel like I have been here forever! 

Tuesday night we had dinner with the Garcia Family. They don't speak a lick of English and are less active members. They are so sweet and loving. We got to know them and they said they would love to have us over AGAIN! For our spiritual thought at the end of dinner we shared Alma 37:36-37 which states;  

    36 Yea, and ^acry unto God for all thy support; yea, let all thy ^bdoings be unto the Lord, and whithersoever thou goest let it be in the Lord; yea, let all thy ^cthoughts be directed unto the Lord; yea, let the affections of thy heart be placed upon the Lord forever.

    37 ^aCounsel with the Lord in all thy doings, and he will direct thee for ^bgood; yea, when thou liest down at night lie down unto the Lord, that he may watch over you in your sleep; and when thou risest in the ^cmorning let thy heart be full of thanks unto God; and if ye do these things, ye shall be lifted up at the last day.

We talked about how prayer has been a part of their life and they shared some humbling experiences with us. We are really excited to go back over and visit with the Garcia Family again soon. 

We got quite a few Spanish calls set up for this next week! We had a call last week with a guy named Irvin and it was so good. It was our first lesson with him and we set up another call later and he said he was wanting to come to church! 

We have English class every Sunday night. Last night Hermano Sanchez started our class for us (we were going to be a little late coming from a dinner). We walked in and he was teaching about the Gospel! There were only 2 people that came to the class but apparently one participant asked about church, so for the whole English class we talked using English (defining words). We invited them to church this next week and so we hopefully they can come! 

I am so grateful for all of you and I pray you all are doing good! Remember that God loves you and he wants to communicate with you! Don't forget to say your prayers!
