Danielis, Daniel, & David

Hey everybody! Que tal?! I hope you all had a great week and are all doing well! It was another insanely fast week in David, Chiriqui! Here are the highlights.

 

 

- Elder Medina and I took a bus early Wednesday morning to a town called Boquete. This place is gorgeous. It's a little town surrounded by mountains and it's actually a bit chilly! It was the first time that I actually felt a little cold in a super long time. It's a wealthy area and a lot of gringos(white people) live there. It reminds me of Park City, Utah which is crazy! Anyways, we went to Boquete to teach a man named Franklin who is the husband of the Young Women's President. We had a couple lessons on the phone but we wanted to meet him in person. We taught the Gospel of Jesus Christ and wow it was an amazing experience and very well worth the trip. The spirit was so strong, and he was tearing up after he accepted our invitation to be baptized. Heck, I even started tearing up. 

 

 

- On Saturday, 3 siblings got baptized together- Danielis, Daniel, and David. Their parents nor their grandparents are members so we have been working hard with the members so that they can have support. All of the leaders are heavily involved so that they don't fall astray. These kids are filled with happiness, and the light and joy of Christ. Maximiliano is a future missionary who helped us out with the baptisms! He's gonna be a killer missionary. 

 

 

All the missionaries are working hard in the zone and it is paying off big time as 8 children of God have entered the waters of baptism and are now on the path to eternal life. Now, they just gotta get to the Temple!

 

 

I know the church is true because I can feel the spirit testify everytime we teach the restored gospel. I love you all and I hope you are all doing super well. ¡Que tengan un excelente semana!

 

 

Love, Elder Felt

Panamá Beats The US

Panamá beat the US in soccer, so everyone was going crazy—partying and drinking. We had a bunch of contacts with hombres borrachos in the streets. You know when a man's drunk when they start speaking to us in English, haha. Despite all the hombres borrachos and unmarried couples that we are teaching, the work is moving forward, and many miracles are happening here in Panamá! Elder Martínez and I have been working a ton with recent converts and part-member families. Doing so, we have seen lots of success. The Lord is certainly providing, and we are excited to see the fruits of our labors as we continue to work diligently in His Vineyard. Angel and Daniel, who are the younger brothers of Leo (who is now reactivating), came to church yesterday. They are set for baptism on the 29th of July. Here's a quote that I really like from a devotional I listened to from Elder and Sister Oaks: "Heavenly Father is more interested in our growth as a Disciple of Jesus Christ than He is in o...

Merry Christmas From San Blas

Image
Merry Christmas and Happy New year! I hope you are all enjoying this special and joyous time with your loved ones.      This season is by far my favorite time of year especially as a missionary. It's truly amazing being able to help others feel the Christmas spirit and remind them what it is all about- the birth, life, and atonement of our Savior, Jesus Christ.      About a week and a half ago, I received a call that I was being transferred. After the most incredible 7 months in David my time came to an end. It was hard to say goodbye to my dear friends but I'm looking forward to having new marvelous experiences in a new place. I will now be serving in the San Blas islands learning a new indigenous language called "Dulegaya."      Before coming out, the new San Blas elders and I spent a couple days preparing by buying food, our sandals, and our hammocks! And we also had a multi-zone Christmas Conference! The elders of Guna Yala(San Blas) sang...
