BUENAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We had an amazazazazazing week this week! So many milagros :)
One of the biggest, actually, THE biggest miracle by far happened on Saturday... the day of Mom's wedding. I was thinking I was going to be all sad and down all day. It was not that way at all! I DID NOT SHED A SINGLE TEAR THE ENTIRE DAY! If you guys had seen how I have cried before about all of this and about missing the wedding, you would be in so much shock and amazement that on the day of the actually wedding, not a single lagrima fell from my ojito! God blessed us with such a great day! We were able to see our cute little investigator! We met with a potential, J., who is now investigating the church as well! We had appointment after appointment after appointment that day! I know that God gave us a busy day here to keep my mind busy and focused!
Other amazing things that happened this week were...
1. B!!! He is the coolest guy in the world that we street contacted. He asked us a BILLION and one questions. He was not the biggest fan of the church, but that was only because he had some very mixed up, not correct info about us. As we cleared it all up, you could see him start to get more and more interested! By the end of our 40 minute conversation he said "You've convinced me!" and invited us to come back! We did and it was AWESOME! We talked about the Restoration and it went so so well! B. had lots of questions about the plan of salvation and about the family! Our member friend did amazing, the spirit was hecka strong!!! Too bad we had to hand B. off to the English Elders. But, I am 100% positive that he is going to be baptized!
2. C! She is a less active who came to church! We were able to bring one of her really close friends in the lesson to visit her with us. Then she invited her and her daughter to come to church, Hermana C. excepted and was there yesterday!
3. We got to go to the Orioles game as a mission on Friday night! That was the BEST!!!! I didn’t watch too much of the game because I was running around, seeing so many members from my old areas! I cant tell you how much it means to me and to see all of these people that have changed my life! I literally have the best friends and family in the world here in Maryland! There really is nothing that makes me happier!
4. So, as I have told you, I am serving in an English ward working with the Hispanics. This has been a little hard for me because I am having some culture shock! The food is hard, praying in English is weird, all of it has been a bit of a struggle. We were out street contacting and I was just praying "Lord, I really want a pupusa right now. Please give me a pupusa! A few minutes later we see this lady and we start talking with her. She had her apron on and I asked what she was making. Guess what she said. PUPUSAS!!! I couldn’t control my excitement! She then invited us in and made us each of one of the BEST pupusas I have had! Z. makes pupusas and sells them every Wednesday. But, she told us that we didn’t need to pay, that she was proud of us and of what we were doing! She even made us a desert! It was such a sweet experience!
I am so grateful for the gospel! I am grateful that the Lord answers my pupusa prayers and that this Saturday he answered my prayer of giving my mom an AMAZING man like Rob :) I am so grateful for our families and that we can be together forever! I know God's plan is perfect!
