Week 51...7/27/15...Hemana Berta and her daughters Dulce Rubi and Tania

Hey family and friends here's another email from your friendly Elder Pugmire 

Well, another year has almost passed but I still have absolutely no idea what I really want to do for a job when I get older. I hate decision making. I'm sooo bad at it! Uhhhhhh! But I guess it's gonna have to come someday whether I want to or not. Yesterday I saw a whiteboard that was full of a physics problem, one of the classics that a box is being pulled up a slope and the other one is tied to it falling.... it was half-erased but there was still enough there for me to remember that that is something I will never go into!

But this week was great! We had some awesome experiences especially working with the Spirit! Yesterday, we were Looking for new investigators and we were walking down the street I was on the phone trying to set up an appointment and I saw this family that I had the feeling that we should visit them. (obviously the Spirit) I was in the middle of a conversation on the phone and didn't pay much attention to it, so we walked right past them. I ended the conversation and stopped. My comp said ''there was a family back there we should talk to.''  I quickly agreed and now we have a super positive family we're teaching!!!! It was a reminder to me how the Holy Ghost works. It's such a small simple feeling, you really have to be listening to hear it. But were excited to see how this family progresses!

We also had 4 baptisms that were the result of a pure miracle of fasting this week!. We had a mom and 3 kids.  The kids were all ready to get baptized but the mom was still going to another church. But when I was away on divisions my comp called me to tell me that she had had a dream where she saw a man that told her that she needed to change her church and be baptized in the true Church of Jesus Christ and do his work in the church. I'm not sure who she saw but it was enough of an answer to her prayer that we were able to see the four of them get baptized! It was so amazing! It was just such a powerful testimony to me that the power of fasting and prayer is real. She changed from a lady that wanted nothing to do with the church to a great convert!

This week I had the opportunity to go on divisions with all of my areas and it was awesome! I feel like I'm able to serve others and the Lord so much more! This week has been kinda crazy though. Were going to have a test on the Book of Mormon which we have been challenged to read in just this month of July I've stayed up way past my bedtime reading it so I can finish it before the deadline! I have to get caught up by Wednesday! I have really learned sooo much from it! I love the Book of Mormon and I know that it is true.
I love you all and hope all is well! 
Love,
Elder Pugmire
