As you can see by the title,
there were a lot of miracles that happened this week:
Miracle #1: On
Friday night all of our plans fell through and we were walking and
deciding what to do and we happened to walk past the church and there were a
lot of members outside playing and watching soccer so we decided to say hi real
quick. There were some young women selling hot dogs and coke so we bought some
and while we were waiting for them to bring it to us some random guy from the
stake that was playing soccer came up to us and said "Hermanas I have
something for you" and then he proceeded to pull out two Jiff Whips Peanut
Butter thingys from his backpack and then Slim Jims and gave them all to us
jajajajaja we were like whaaaaaaaaattttttttttttttttttt. And I was so happy and
crying tears of joy and wow. For realz such a miracle! I don't know who that
man is but he is my favorite person.
Miracle #2: On
Saturday morning our plans fell through again and we took a weird route
through the city idk I think sometimes the spirit just guides us and we don't
even realize it because WE RAN INTO RAUL!!!!!!!!!!!! He's the convert that got
married and baptized in November!! I hadn't heard from them and the
missionaries in Reducto told me that they were having a hard time finding him
and I was really worried. Turns out, him and his wife just moved to another
city! But they told me that they are still super active and that they still
have plans to go to the temple in November and get sealed :) :) :) That was
seriously such a miracle!! I was so happy to see them, we literally ran into
them at the perfect time!
Miracle #3: Okay so I
am way bad at writing you and telling you about the people we are teaching and
stuff but we have been teaching a guy named Bruno with the Elders. Bruno is 21
and when we started teaching him he was atheist. But he's been reading the Book
of Mormon like crazy and coming to church every week and progressing a ton! We
taught him last week about how he's changed in the last month and he said he's
a lot happier now and feels the presence of God in his life, it was seriously
just like woah. He's getting baptized this Saturday and we are so
excited for him!!!
Miracle #4: Okay so
Edith is incredible. She just keeps progressing more and more and more! We
taught her about prophets on Saturday night and showed her the pic of the
prophet, apostles, and 70 that come in the General Conference magazine and she
loved it! Literally every time we have taught her something she hasn't had any
doubts, she just knows that it's all true. On Sunday in Gospel
Principles class, she volunteered to say the closing prayer and she prayed for
President Monson! It was so cool. She hasn't even heard or read one of his
talks yet but she knows that he's God's prophet on the earth right now and it
seriously is the coolest thing. She is so converted to the gospel!
This week has been
super great! We are just working our buns off and talking to everybody and
seeing so many miracles! I love San Lorenzo so much and I am so happy here!! Our
house hasn't had water since yesterday so we have to use a bucket full of water
to flush the toilet and stuff but igual I am so happy and so grateful to be
here!
