it and felt the spirit so much. It was great to hear her talk about
how much she loved it and is loving the church already. They take
pictures at the end...
It has been super spiritual and full of miracles! We have been so blessed!
We had interviews with president this week.........and I had A LOT of
questions....haha but it went well and when I asked about working with
the members, he said I know how to do it, I did it in Ramona....so
obviously I need to step it up haha. But he gave some great advice for
that as well. I always get super nervous for interviews, but then I
end up loving talking to president. I am so grateful to have him and
Sister Schmitt! They are the best!
This week I have really been thinking about my purpose as a missionary
and really focusing in on it especially about keeping and dropping
investigators. As we have been doing that, we have been able to see
many miracles. This week we had an investigator who has not been
fulfilling any of her commitments. We went in thinking we would teach
her the plan of Salvation, but the spirit hit me that we need to focus
in on our purpose. We reset expectations and on Sunday she came to all
3 hours of church. She said she felt bad that we weren't fulfilling
our purpose with her because she knows we are servants of the Lord.
Que Bendición!
We had a super awesome miracle this past week! One of the members in
our area wanted us to teach his girlfriend. We were a little confused
about it because it happened all of a sudden. We went and he had been
talking to her about our religion. She came super prepared and she is
from Cuba so she didn't hear a lot about religion until recently. She
accepted a baptismal date in the first lesson and keeps talking about
that day. I was so grateful that we set the date with her. We just
planned on asking her to be baptized, but the spirit led us to setting
her with a date!
Our area is doing better! It has been full of miracles. I stopped
thinking about the quantity of lessons and started thinking about the
quality. The quality of our lessons lately have been so good, better
than they have been in my entire mission! The spirit is so strong, I
am understanding the people a lot better, and they are keeping their
commitments! It has been an amazing week though and the ward was super
excited to see 5 investigators at church for us and 5 investigators
for the elders. I could see Obispo perk up a little when he saw it. I
saw the fire starting.
