What's UP?
FAM!!!!! :) so, this week was suuuper stressful BUT, we saw some mjiracles come out of it to make it good.
So we were going to have a baptism on sunday but the investigator backed out on the last moment :( but its all good. I know we will be able to help him get to his baptism another day.
Transfers we dont have for another two weeks.
But this week, aside from the many difficult things we had some miracles. Let me explain.
We had the bishop give us a reference that was INCREDIBLE but when we made a cita with him he had to cancel. He actually went to the church to look for a church and ended up talking to the bishop.
Another miracle we had this week was Ira, she is a friend of a memeber. Super old and not doing too well with her health, so we passed by her house the other day and just at that moment she was having a pannic attack, so we gave her a bendicion de consuelo and sang her some hymns and she calmed right down. She said to us at the end with tears in her eyes "thank you chicos for passing by, I know that God sent you two, I was praying for you two to pass by my house right in this moment" I really know that God sent us there. We basicly saved her life.
Another was the Hmna Gloria Uyua. She is a member. She said that we as missionaries were an answer of her prayers. Her and I are really tight. She is like 60 years old or so but we go over to her house every week and this week her and i were talking about the scriptures and she told me that when i was explaining what i had thought about the scriptures, she said i was explaining the answer she has been looking for since her baptism. It was super cool to see the tears in her eyes as she said that the prophet was inspired to send me here cause no other elder has been able to answer those questions for her. (which that might even suprise dad, seeing that i never wanted to read scriputes as a family before the mish and now they are my treasure. The thing i hold (obviously next to my family and god) closest to my heart)
The lord lives and knows everyone of us. I know he loves us and wants to bless us if we are keeping the commandments.
