¡Todo lo que esperaba y MÁS!- June 10, 2015

My goodness the Lord is too good to us! We are seeing miracles left and right and it just makes you realize that this isnt just a way to get people to become part of just another church, but it is HELPING PEOPLE LIVE AND PARTICIPATE IN THE GOSPEL OF CHRIST, which is "the power of God for the salvation of man"(Romans 1:16). I do believe that this does not only refer to the salvation after the judgement seat, but it talks about the salvation that God gives us, through Christ, from ourselves! Our natural man! We are seeing that so much!
Junior and Laura are going along, JUNIOR CAME TO CHURCH for sacrament meeting! How great! He really felt good, and is thinking a lot about his decision. He is happy and just trying to help his family. But Satan puts into his head that HE ISNT GOOD ENOUGH and a lot of economic problems that he has gone through have all been his fault. But, we just hope that God can touch his heart so that he decides to take God's route.
Junior Ruiz is a brother of Fernando, a less active that we helped to be reactivated lately. He is like an adopted brother, but he is so prepared for the gospel. He has resolved that HE WILL CHANGE. Whatever you think about the people that we think are awful in this life you can think, but they can change. He is an example. He has such a desire to change that he literally felt a physical answer from God to his prayer if this is what he needs to do. We are going to help him, he lives a really unorganized life, and we know that HE WILL DO IT. He is fixing stuff up with his wife, and he needs to marry her too, and we will work with both of them to help their family.
Robinson couldnt go to church, but we still are seeing a great interest. He was called to work on something, then was going to go to church afterwards, but then the guy never came. It was kind of sad, but we are all good. We are talking about the commandments, and even though he has done all sorts of things as well, when i think of these men I think of this quote:

"The Lord works from the inside out. The world works from the outside in. The world would take people out of the slums. Christ takes theslums out of the people, and then they take themselves out of the slums. … Christ changes men, who then change their environment. Theworld would shape human behavior, but Christ can change human nature"
Ricardo and Fior are getting ready for their wedding at the end of the month. What a miracle!! They are doing well, we just hope to keep them motivated and excited.
We got a reference on wednesday from a sister from the branch named Juan Disla. He is the father of a member who moved to Santiago, and he told her that he had decided that he wanted us to go over. We went over and WOW what a miracle! HE contacted us! What a great miracle that happened, because he is really prepared. We are going to see what happens with im.
Also, Yerlin Abreu came to chruch and LOVED IT once again! We are seeing that she wants to so bad, and the Relief Society is getting on the fellowshiping of her.
WHAT A LIFE WE LIVE AS SERVANTS OF THE LORD.
Love,
Elder Dallin Murphy
1. Papi Payano and his grandson! He wanted us to see the size of that book haha he is really cool!
