The
time for the dynamic duo is over.
BUT
change means progression!
I
will be training AGAIN!
I
love serving the Lord by taking care of a brand new missionary.
We
only have one Spanish Hermana coming in and the lord knows I probably have a
lot to learn from my new kid!
I'm
extremely lucky to have this opportunity again.
Training
is good, I just have to keep her alive right?
I'll
meet her on Tuesday.
Haha
so this week has been very good. We have been seeing these crazy
miracles!
My
favorite one is when we were driving home and we pulled up and for some reason
there wasn't as much traffic as there usually is so we pulled up at 8:45 to our
apartment. And decided to talk to one more person.
So
we knocked on a PNIs house that lived only down the street from our apartment .
And we were looking for a Giovanni Castro. But he no longer lived there . These
really kind ladies were the ones that answered, So we explained to them that we
are missionary's and that he had interest in the past, so we asked them if they
would have interest, and one lady was kind of like" I already go to a
church but you guys are always welcome to stop by" and then as we have
them our information, that ladies leaves to take care of a crying baby. And the
other lady looks at us with the biggest smile ever that it was almost creepy.
So
we just smile back at her trying to see if she was just really happy or if she
was crazy.
And
all of a sudden she says "I'm convinced you girls are angels sent by
God"
"I
am always running into missionaries like you guys, some were boys that were
named elder in Mexico and then again here when I came to America , never paid
too much thought to them and thought what they did was nice but I have been
looking for you guys because I am going through some problems and I feel like
there's something I am missing, I have faith in the lord and I know that he's
there but there's something inside me that craves to know something more and I
have been praying for a sign and then you guys knocked on a door while
looking for someone else and I know you girls are the sign"
We
were SHOCKED!!!!
She
started to cry and we just hugged her and testified that we are messengers to
spread the gospel of Jesus Christ, and that we have been lead to her. We
testified that she wasn't alone and that there's a lot more and we have what's
she's looking for her. She gave us the sweetest hugs and made an appointment
with us later this week .
HOW
AWESOME IS THAT!!!
We
skipped back to our apartment that night! In awe that the Lord is in every
detail and helps us in every way as long as we are diligent and faithful!
My
other favorite story is of our investigator Alejandro and Patricia.
Alejandro
is nuts! (I've told you guys this already) and we can't ever tell if he takes
us seriously cause of his personality.
We
haven't seen him in 2 weeks and we were a little iffy about him. So we knock
and he answered and was so happy to see us and I was closest to the door and
gives me a GAINT HUG ( MY MIND FLIPPED OUT) and I start laughing super
nervously. And he then gives Hna dyer a GAINT hug . And I think he saw how uncomfortable
we got and says "oops I'm sorry but I just missed you guys" haha we
were just like "no no we missed you guys too!" They let us in and
they told us how they read 8 chapters in the Book of Mormon!!!! That's a
miracle! And he had bookmark all thelaces where he had super awesome questions
about and literally said "WOW THIS BOOK DOES GO HAND IN HAND WITH THE
BIBLE, ITS TRUE WHAT YOU GUYS SAID"
I
almost flipped the table from excitement, because we were in verge of dropping
them. They also apologized and explained how they been super busy and stuff.
But that they love us :)
Alejandro
and Patricia and their daughter (investigators)
They
gave us so much food.
We
ate
Colombian
empanadas
Puerto
Rican rice
Ribs
Shrimp
And
tacos
in one sitting
So
many blessings.....
