Nadia & Roy!!

Hey family and friends, I hope you had a great week! It was a marvelous week here in the mission filled with joy and miracles. 

 

 

We received transfer news! I will be staying here in David, Chiriquí for my 5th transfer, and I am so STOKED. I could not be any happier. It's the promised land. Sadly, my comp Elder Garrett is leaving just after 1 transfer. It was a transfer full of ups & downs, but many miracles. I will miss him for sure but I know that there are people in a different part of Panama that need him. My new comp is Elder Gomez and he is a tank! I'm looking forward to serving with him and moving the work forward. 

 

 

Nadia finally got baptized! I am super blessed that I was able to be a part of her whole process learning about the Gospel and the importance and impact that it would have in her life. The Gospel is literally everything. Living it is the way to find true joy, peace, and eternal happiness with our Heavenly Father, His son Jesus Christ, and our families.

 

 

Roy also got baptized! He is a teenager that we had been teaching for awhile too. He's already starting to do family history work and thinking about serving a mission! He's a stud. His entire family who aren't members came to support him as well! It was a special day.

 Nothing makes me happier than seeing these two children of God enter the covenant path.

 

 

On Saturday before the baptism, we took 3 youth, who are preparing to serve missions, out to contact and teach with us. It was sweet! 

 

 

Love you all heaps,

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

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...
