We had such an amazing week... again! I
have seen more miracles in these last four weeks then I have in my
entire mission! We found 14 new solid investigators! AH. Here is a crazy
story about one of our investigators! So her name is Reina and she told
us that she has a brother serving a mission in Guatemala! Then she told
us that recently her parents just got baptized in Honduras and last
week her sister just got baptized in Virginia! Missionaries have
literally found her whole family and baptized them! She is the last
one.. :) It is such a miracle that we found her and are able to teach
her! She is so awesome! She has a baptismal date for the 10th of
October! Pray for her! We also found another family that is so excited
about the gospel! This area has taken such a huge turn! This used to be
the "hardest" area in the mission and now we have some of the best
numbers! And it's not even us! It is all the Lord! He is just handing us
people to teach! It is just a testimony builder to me that there is no
such thing as a "hard" area. Success is directly related to obedience!
We
accidentally drove into a compound this week. Not really. We have
been cleaning out the ward list and trying to find part member familys.
We put this one address in the GPS and it took us out to the yahoos of
Texas. The street we took us on was so scary. The country of Texas is
10x scarier than the ghetto! There were confederate flags and trash and
bonfires and purple paint on the trees and no trespassing signs and
little huts made out of wood. So scary. Don't worry though, we got out
of there really fast!
We also ran out of money
on our little cards last week and had no food. Hermana Lowry wrote her
step mom and told her we needed non perishable food because we were
dying. Two days later we received 6 boxes on our doorstep.. filled with
pasta. It was all pasta. We have so much pasta in our house we don't
even know what to do! Haha! We couldn't stop laughing as we opened each
box just to find more pasta and more pasta! We made it through the week
and now we have money again to go grocery shopping! Yay! Haha!
Have a lovely week my loves! Look for ways to share the gospel with everyone!!! I love you all!!!
