Salut le monde
This week skipped right on by, and je me suis rendu compte que this could be my last week with Elder Purahui and my Haitian people . . . . hopefully I'll be staying at least one more transfer here in this area, so we will all see next week.
I wanted to share the story of a wonderful servant of the Lord that I want you all to know about. His name is Jhonel. During my time here, I think I have spent more time with him than I have with my companions haha. He calls us and asks to come out teaching just about every day. He loves to laugh, and he loves Latina and mulatte peoples. His FAVORITE thing to do every week is to go to church. He is preparing for a mission. He oftentimes tries to con us into buying him Haitian food haha.
I just wanted to explain, that I have seen Jhonel in all kinds of situations. Happy and sad. Scared and excited. But this week, after 5 months of trying, we were finally able to teach him and his own family together. I have never seen him so peaceful and joyous as in that moment. He testified to his brothers and mom about what he knows to be true. And they were genuinely happy. I can testify that families are ordained by God to bring us happiness and allow us to learn. We were given our family for many reasons, and no matter the circumstances we can decide to help them, even if it is just by our prayers.
I love my family and I am so grateful for their support. I have felt their love every day here in Canada. Be happy this week, because God wants us to be :)
