Hola!!!!
wow...time is flying like you wouldnt believe. We had our training on monday and tuesday which was pretty fun. We had sis. Epps with us who was companions with sis bingham before. She is a really good missionary and i learned a lot. I hope by the time i get ready to go home the sisters will say that about me.
I know im working as hard as i possibly can. The Lord has always blessed me with a positive attitude and boy has that been important as a missionary. Some days are soooooo hard! This area has been such a challenge but im starting to see the fruits of our labors. I think the Lord is trying to humble me...i guess He does that sometimes.
We have been finding new people to teach which has been great. Sunday we fasted to find a family in this area...we're still looking but i know the Lord is preparing a family in this area. I felt the influence of the Holy Ghost more in my life these last 2 weeks then ever. I know that the Lord is guiding this work.
This week we were able to set a baptismal date with a new investigator named fransico. He is so neat...he's 25 and single. He went to church on sunday and loved it! The best part is a member family invited him to dinner with us on sunday and he came!!! i just keep praying he can continue to grow in the gospel and that he will be prepared for the 30th of may. We have found some other promising people this week and im excited because we have people to teach and less tracking(as much fun as that is).
Im getting along with my comp fine...we have different personalities but it all works out ok. She is nervous about going home so kinda freakin out but ill probably be the same.
Im LOVING full-field as much as i miss th VC...they may have to drag me back. Its just freedom to be out with people all day long...its glorious.
Last night we were talking to this sweet little lady from memphis. We had a really good talk with her and then gave her a hug...she then says in a whisper i have to tell you something... “ i use to be a hooker” wow!!! my first encounter with a hooker..she seemed like a normal person that was the freaky part. People tell missionaries EVERYTHING!!! i just love the gospel.
I hope you all know that. I am the happiest i have ever been and i know its because i am here serving the Lord. He has blessed me richly and everyday i have to opportunity to change people's lives. I know coming home will be an adjustment so im glad i have several months to enjoy paradise:)
well i love you all soosoooooooo much! I hope you have the best week ever and happy mother's day!
