Fasting,Prayer and Obedience

Família,
So I apologize in advance bc I had planned to share lots of great experiences with you guys this week but I forgot my notebook at home that would boost my memory to remember them all, AND this computer is not very good today! (very slow and not sure if all photos will even load) sorry!! but I will try my best to let you guys know how great the mission is and my week! So this week was awesome! We’ve been struggling to have success these last couple of weeks, and finally got down on our knees and fasted and prayed. Man does fasting, prayer, and obedience work! I have a strong testimony in these simple, true, gospel principles. We found so many elite families this week and had incredible lessons! So awesome to be a mere instrument in the Lords hands and work. So many miracles have happened this week too. For example, members of the church that we’ve been working with and haven’t gone to church in years and are part of other churches now returned this Sunday! We had a super powerful lesson with this women who’s been having a real tough time in life, gave her a blessing, and she came to church this Sunday and brought a f when she told friend even though she told us us she wouldn’t be there! The Lords really touches peoples’ hearts. We had 6 INVESTIGATORS at church today! And almost all from different families! and the other missionaries had 6 more as well!! This week has been full of hard work, challenges, humility, fruits from obedience, and success!! The Lord´s work is incredible! We have a few baptisms in our near future, and lots of new investigators which will probably have baptism dates as well. I love this true gospel and how much its blessing and changing the lives of others! so great to be a part of this great and marvelous work during this time. These are the best 2 years everyone talks about! Could never be so blessed! I’m a little bit nervous though; this Friday is transfers again, and I’ve been in Itaqui quite a long time! I don’t want to leave this small, Argentina boarder city where I was 1st born in the mission yet! The people and members are so incredible and I would miss them so much! and we’re about to have some real time success! but we will have to find out. maybe my work here in Itaqui has come to and end and The Lord has more plans for me elsewhere. I will go and do what the Lord commands! I trust in Him always. 
I love you family! have an awesome week and thanks for everything!










Love,

Elder Sargent
