The Lord is blessing His children


The Lord is blessing his children; we have seen so many miracles lately! Last week while we were working with a young teacher from the ward, he brought us to a couple of friends.  They were really cool, however, after a bit he quickly ran out of people to visit. Then we said a prayer with him in the street so that the Spirit could guide us and so that he could be prompted to take us to someone who was ready to accept the gospel. Then a house came into his mind of a friend from his school and he took us there; we talked with the kid and he was super prepared!! He lives with his grandmother and it turns out that she is a member of the church, however, she hasn´t been in over 30 years. She was really glad when we started teaching her grandson Ivan!

This week a little bit before the foot appt., I decided to take out the map and to pray. I prayed over it and then I saw a street that stood out to me and I knew that we needed to go there. As we walked over there I prayed and prayed and prayed to the Lord as I pondered about the story of the Eunuch and Philip from the 8th chapter of the book of Acts as I prayed. 

26 And the angel of the Lord spake unto Philip, saying, Arise, and go toward the south unto the way that goeth down from Jerusalem unto Gaza, which is desert.

27 And he arose and went: and, behold, a man of Ethiopia, an eunuch of great authority under Candace queen of the Ethiopians, who had the charge of all her treasure, and had come to Jerusalem for to worship,
28 Was returning, and sitting in his chariot read Esaias the prophet.
29 Then the Spirit said unto Philip, Go near, and join thyself to this chariot.
30 And Philip ran thither to him, and heard him read the prophet Esaias, and said, Understandest thou what thou readest?
31 And he said, How can I, except some man should guide me? And he desired Philip that he would come up and sit with him.
32 The place of the scripture which he read was this, He was led as a sheep to the slaughter; and like a lamb dumb before his shearer, so opened he not his mouth:
33 In his humiliation his judgment was taken away: and who shall declare his generation? for his life is taken from the earth.
34 And the eunuch answered Philip, and said, I pray thee, of whom speaketh the prophet this? of himself, or of some other man?
35 Then Philip opened his mouth, and began at the same scripture, and preached unto him Jesus.
36 And as they went on their way, they came unto a certain water: and the eunuch said, See, here is water; what doth hinder me to be baptized?
37 And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.
38 And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they went down both into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized him.
39 And when they were come up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Philip, that the eunuch saw him no more: and he went on his way rejoicing.
Philip was told by the Spirit to go to the chariot and he did so.  As I prayed I asked the Father to let me know exactly what house; just as Philip was guided to the very city and the very Chariot. As I walked down the street I saw a house and I knew it was the house that we needed to go to, the Spirit was just so strong! When I knocked the door, a lady came out and said "hi elder, come right it" it turns out her two teenage kids live in Iowa and they are really strong members of the Church there! She is not a member, and she also has a 10-year-old daughter and a 12-year-old son and they are super prepared and animated to listen to us! Such a great tender mercy!

I love the mission so much!!! I never wanna leave rip…I´m gonna miss it so much! 

This week for p-day I hit the gym with my boy Elder Atkin hehe! Which reminds me that Golds was bought out in Layton... Rip such a sad day Rip..... I will never forget the days that I spent in Golds #arnold #legend.... I would just like to officially come out and say that I will most likely be going to Vasa. It will definitely be a change; however, it will need to be done. The branding behind Golds and the history of Arnold and so many other greats training there makes all the difference rip.... but I will make my own legacy in Vasa with Murray and Logan hahaha !!

Much love,
Elder Ceb

Elder Cebollero's Homecoming

We loved hearing Elder Cebollero speak in our church about his mission and hearing his beautiful testimony.  After church, we had a taco bar...
