Good
News!!!!!!!!!!!! Buenas noticias!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So
this week was a super good week for me. We found out that because of the
missionary and ward mission work we are going to have to divide the ward
because we don’t all fit in the building we are in! That is so cool for me to
be able to see a ward grow so much in just 7 months. We have tripled the
assistance of the ward, and have almost 50 new converts in the church! So, it
is a great thing to watch the work of the lord coming to pass and helping to
grow a ward so much that it needs to be divided:) When the ward and the
missionaries work together we can do some super dope stuff:)
The other amazing news is that our neighbors, (the people
that I always talk about in my letters) they are all members except for the mom
her name is Gabby. She isn’t a member, she likes coffee, (NBD) and to work on Sundays.
She was super offended from the sister missionaries and the other missionaries
that were teaching her. She really didn’t even want anything to do with the
church, but after talking with her for like 3 months, and sharing my own
personal experience’s with her, 2 days ago she made the decision to get
baptized!!!!!!!! It was such a cool experience to watch someone who has been
listening to the missionaries for 4 years finally make the decision to get
baptized. So cool to be the hands and mouth of God in this situation. Plus she
is like a mother for me, cooking for us almost every night, washing our
clothes, repairing them when they are damaged, giving us medicine when we are
sick, and just laughing with us and being almost like a real mother for us. So
cool to see!!! I love being a missionary:)
Hope everything is
going well at home I love and miss you all::)
