Another week of Miracles

This week as was last week, a week of miracles.
This week started with a really amazing opportunity that we had to make empanadas with hmno Leal. When we got to the house and entered we imidiatly felt a change that had happened in his home. Their was a different spirit. a good spirit. He was a different person. We Talked as we made the empanadas and then as we ate we were able to have a spiritual talk. Were able to talk about how he was progressing, and he told us that as of two weeks ago, which is when we started visiting him, he stopped smoking. Which was something that we didnt even know, that he was smoking. Then the biggest of all miracles with them was on sunday, when they came to church :) Tears came to my eyes as i was able to see them walk into those doors so happy as a family. Not to mention the spirit we were able to feel as my companion was able to share his final testimony that he would give in the Palazzo ward. My companion got transfer calls and is going to open an area in Rawson. IT was a super bitter sweet experience as we were able to do our last visits together and feel the spirit super strong together for the last time in the mission. But i know the lord has a why to everything.
My companion waited for his papers before his mission for 8 months and almost didnt go because of the wait. But he had faith in God and he tells me that as i have been with him this transfer, he felt and now knows why he waited that time. To be able to go through everything we went through together. I have learned alot from my companion. He is an amazing guy.
Then we were able to witness two other miracles.
Flia Valdez came to church, they are some menos activos that havent been to church in a while.
A family that is part member showed up in church yesterday. Suzana was a girl that stopped us in the street in her car about 5 weeks ago and asked for the address of the church, we gave her the address and didnt think much of it after. She and her husband and her two daughters came to church yesterday, without an invitiation. She felt that she needed to go. She is a member as of 20 years ago but hasnt came since. Her husband and her daughter that is 8 arent members. We were able to teach an amazing lesson in gospel principals class with our teacher. The spirit was super strong.
 
I know that the lord knows everyone of us. Thanks dad for the talk you sent me. ITs all true what it says. The lord hears our prayers. He loves everyone of you and wants to help you, all we need is faith in him. :)
