Just wanted to write a quick note to share the wonderful experience that we had this weekend, on Sunday a very special man named Ezequiel Flores got baptized. Ezequiel had gone through allot in his life with loosing loved ones and have really bad experiences with the different churches that he associated with. One day Ezequiel said that he prayed to seek for more of God's truth. He loves the bible and had read it many times, but every time he read he felt like God still had more scripture in the world and he desired it. Very soon after Ezequiel prayed he found the missionaries as he was delivering mail, and he felt impressed to hear what they had to say. We went over and met with Ezequiel and shared the message of the Restoration and of the Book of Mormon, and Ezequiel felt immediately that God was answering his prayers. He proceeded to listen to the Book of Mormon on tape while he was fulfilling his job as a mailman each day, as he did so he gained such an amazing testimony of the Book of Mormon and that Christ had His church on the earth. God truly did answer his prayers and brought the truth to him. I feel so very blessed to have been a tool in the Lords hands as He touched Ezequiels life. Ezequiel was also our stake Presidents mailman for many years and became familiar with him and actually really good friends. That is who baptized him President Jay Robb. Ezequiel is what missionaries say when they say "Kingdom Builder", he is going to touch many lives with the gospel, starting with his 8 children.
Love you all thanks for your continual support as I serve the Lord.
