okay, so FIRST!! We had so many lessons planned for this week. Like
really, so many set appointments. It was ridiculous! We were going to
get so much done, and it was all going to go according to plan.. and
then one by one they ALL started canceling. Like really, I think we only
had 2 out of like 14 appointments go through between Monday and
Friday... But because the Lord loves us so much and knows that sometimes
we just need a little bit of help, we ended up having probably one of
the most successful weeks of the transfer!
One of our miracles was with this woman named Chavel. Now, we have
been trying to see this woman for 5 weeks now, and every single
appointment we set gets cancelled for some reason or another (she was
one of the 12 cancelled appointments from earlier in the week). But we
had just had someone else cancel on us, and we were right next to her,
so we decided to just go and knock on her door. So we go, and no one
answers. But then right as we were about to walk away, she comes walking
up the stairs to her apartment! She let us right in and we were able to
have a really great lesson on the Restoration of the Gospel! She has
actually been super interested in our church for quite some time! She
was sick this week, so she wasn't able to come to church, but we are
super excited to work with her! And the coolest miracle, was that after
talking for a little bit, she told us how on her way home from work, she
was about to go and run some more errands, but she had felt a very
distinct feeling that she needed to go home. And as soon as she got
there, she found us! It was an awesome moment to see the Lords hand in
working in our lives.
Ah! There are so many other great things I want to be able to tell
you, but time is up!! I promise to be better next week! I love you all
and I want you to know that being a missionary is the greatest thing. I
love it every single day, and I am so grateful for the chance I have to
serve my Heavenly Father.
Have a great week full of miracles!
Les Quiero!!
