This last week we were able to see Gloria, Junior, Marvin and Isabella in person!!!! I forgot what it was like to see people in real life because the only human interaction I've had with people is with my companion and my roommates for the last 3 months. It felt like I was dreaming. But than all these riots started happening and it is really bad here in downtown LA so we have to go back into cuarentena (quarantine) again! Yay... but y'all need to stay safe and be smart!!!!
I want to tell you about our friend Elias. We found him a few months back, when we were free and able to walk the streets of Los Angeles. We were walking and heard something coming up from behind us and when I turned around, I almost got ran over by a bike. He was riding his bike drunk. When he got control of his bike, he said sorry and then saw that we were missionaries. He then started to break down in tears and told us how he wants to change his life and wants to stop drinking. He felt like he had sinned too much and that God would never forgive him. It was super sad. We told him that God will always forgive you no matter what, because He has so much love for each of His children. Since then, we have been able to teach him a lot and I've seen his life change so much. Its amazing how he can't really see the difference in himself, but we can. He is changing for the better and coming closer to Christ everyday. Even if we have to teach the same lesson to him 3 or 4 times for him to understand, I'm unbelievably grateful to teach him.
I want you all to know that God will always love and forgive you, if you truly want to change, you can. He's just waiting for you to ask for help and take that leap of faith. :)
I hope all is well! I love y'all so much!
God loves y'all as well ♡
Love,
Hermana Weenig
