The Gift of Tongues is Real



2.8.16

Hey There!

I hope you all are doing well and staying warm. The weather here has reminded me a lot of home recently and is all over the place. We got those how every many inches of snow and then all the sudden it was 50 degrees a few days later it was raining and then it was almost 60 and now this week it is supposed to snow. Crazy weather, nonetheless the work of the Lord goes on:)

So I wanted to tell you of the really cool experience we had last week with one of our friends. So we tracted into this guy and he said to come back on Tuesday so we came and had a member with us so we could go in and we taught him one week about the book of Mormon and then next week the restoration. Oh yeah and one thing I forgot to mention is that his first language is Spanish. I took Spanish a little in high school but my first two years. But this week we were able to take an RM with us who went to a Spanish speaking country on his mission and it was really cool because even though I did not know the language as I listened and prayed to understand what they were saying, I felt like for the first time I really did have the gift to interpret what they were saying and even though my companion and I were not really able to teach while he was answering questions in Spanish we were able to bare testimony at the end. The spirit was so strong and his face lit up as he started understanding better what we were there for and what the book of Mormon really was! A really cool experience:)

I hope you all are doing well and can’t wait to hear from you all:) Hope you have a wonderful Valentine’s Day next Sunday!

Love Sister Mauck
