Miracles....Miracles....That is what life is made of!!!



Family what’s up? Well as always I will start if off with the miracles... On Friday, family, we had a baptism, it was incredible, we weren’t able to teach with Laila the whole week and Thursday morning in my studies I had the impression to give her the baptism questions then show her the paper to show her that she was ready, so that night we went to her house and gave her the questions, she was so prepared. The missionaries had shared with her for 8 years as she came to church and left off and on. But Thursday the spirit touched her heart and she asked me to baptize her. So Friday we planned a baptism and it was incredible, she was very happy. MILAGROS...  

The conference was incredible, what amazing talks!  All of us Americans watched the conference in English so we could feel even more of the power in their voices. The spirit was felt in strong abundance.. The theme of the conference I thought was the missionary work and the importance of it with the members, get on the ball back there at home ha-ha. keep baptizing. Family we had the miracle of having 6 investigators come to the conference and Cecilia after hearing the 2nd session on Saturday and the first one on Sunday, she told us after that she wanted to get baptized Tuesday with her son Leandro, so we finished up a couple lessons with her and Elder Cleverly did her interview in the church and this Tuesday we will have 2 more baptisms. MIRACLES..

I love this area so much, from when they called me here I started hearing it was the lowest baptizing zone, and that made me excited cause I knew it was going to change. Last month the zone baptized a ton and the mission beat a record.  How awesome is it of how many sons and daughters of God are joining the church in Paraguay. So we are being very blessed here in Encarnacion family... The miracles never stop because I never stop looking for them. We are not doing an ordinary work so we shouldn’t be looking for ordinary things.. Ever since Jesus Christ walked this earth it was all just miracles, even from the time that started the Bible and the Book of Mormon... so why should it be any different for us? As Moroni says, God has not ceased to be a God of miracles, and never will. Family, there are miracles to see in your lives every day..

Well family last night as we were walking back to our area I got a call from Presidente Agazzani and he told me that the Lord has called me to be a Zone Leader... wow how inadequate I felt, and unqualified, but I know that the Lord will sustain me in my new calling and tomorrow morning I will find out where I’m going and what zone I will be presiding over… very overwhelming!  I already have been but I’m going to be doing a lot of praying here in the next few months.. Well family I love you so much, let’s all work in the great and marvelous work as God has called it back from the time of Isaiah. God will bring forth a great and marvelous work among the children of men. It’s happening right in front of our eyes... Have a great week.

 

Love Elder Hager
