Upe buenas :) Hello family!! What a great week!! It’s been such a blast with the Hermana Garcia. She is a funny one. She’s crazy. She is a very passionate person. It’s so much fun having the same companion that Hermana Peters had and be able to hear about all of their fun times.
               So this week we have been focusing on finding all of the less actives. Just in one part of our area there are 25 families and only 3 are active. So there is a lot of work to do. But we have seen so many miracles looking for them. We went to a Pulperia and asked the owner (Rammon) if he knew anyone from the list of names we had and one happened to be his neighbor. She is about 30 years old and has two daughters who are 9 and 11. So we are working with them so that they can be baptized this next month. Rammon is such a good friend. He helped us out a bunch and even gave us a free drink uush.
               My poor companion is suffering from the food here. We don’t have a cook right now and we have to cook for ourselves so it’s been very depressing for her. She loves food. I’ve got to learn how to cook. I just don’t even know how to start. The only type of rice I know how to make is minute rice and they don’t have that here. But we’ll figure it out. Miracles are real!!
               This week we were walking down the street and we started to talk to this cute lady. As we started telling her why we are here and our purpose she started to cry and said that she just wants help with her daughter who is a little rebellious. So we set up an appointment and said a prayer with her. The next day our appointments fell through so we just started walking towards the park and we ran into her again. And she looked at us with a face of shock and said I just barely prayed for two angels. It was so beautiful to see how the Lord puts us where we need to be.
               It made me feel so grateful to be a missionary and to be able to see God bless his children. I know that everything in life happens for a reason. That truly He is in charge. And that as we look for opportunities to serve his children we will always find them. Sometimes we forget how powerful prayer is. He doesn’t leave prayers unanswered. And he needs us to be the answers to others prayers. Missionary work is the most important and powerful work we could be involved in.
I love you all :)
