Hello!! It looks like thanksgiving was tasty and that you guys lived it up. I love you all so much:) I love my wonderful family. Well It has been a pretty good week here. I had been sick the last couple weeks before with a cold then with strep but this last week i felt a lot better and pumped to find and teach people. It was great this week because me and my companion have made it a goal to listen to the council we have gotten in the trainings and invite everyone we meet to baptism in our first lesson. We have seen some results also. I feel like we are being blessed immensely just being obedient in the little goals and things they ask us to complete.
We had a neat experience with Nancy this week. We were able to give her a tour of the church and explain a couple of things. Afterwards we were waiting with her for her daughter that was in a YM activity. We were able to learn couple of things about Nancy. She told us that her parents abandon her when she was only 3 years old and that she was raised by nuns from the catholic church. She has had a pretty rough life. But you know she is one of the most pleasant nicest ladies that you will ever meet. She told us that she has investigated many churches but has never found what she was looking for. About a year ago she investigated our church and was progressing for a baptism but then didn't get baptised because she was working on Sundays. Then we got her reference from the church offices and this time around she has been able to progress and now is very excited to become a member. I love seeing how our heavenly father changes our lives if we just have faith in him and Jesus Christ.
Also in this week my companion and i found an in prompt to service project. We found a family outside of their house moving a big pile of sand a and a pile of rocks to the back of their house before it was night time so that it wouldn't get robbed. It was a hard task for them because they were filling up big rice sacks and carrying each load on their backs. So me and my companion were able to take a shovel and help them out. It was funny because we were in our Sunday clothes and nice shoes and everyone that passed by on the street made a comment about the big gringa and her friend who knows how to work. It was more of a joke when they said it but it was fun working like that. We also have an appointment with this family in this week.
Well my dear wonderful famliy i love you all so much. Have a great week. Chao!!
