Feb 9, 2016

This week when we were studying about church attendance there was a
chapter (Mosiah 25:18-25) that talks about how the church is the same
everywhere you go. That day we found out that there were some
complications with where Flor was going to be baptized. I was super
stressed about it. Even though it all worked out with the
complications and she wasn't able to get baptized (she is supposed to
this Saturday. Her car broke down in Arizona) I think it helped me to
realize that every time we send a referral or we help the other
missionaries, we are edifying the entire church. I learned a lot from
that study.

So what happened with the baptism: She went on a trip for work and the
truck they were in broke down in Arizona. When we called her she was
like "Hermanas, estoy triste porque no voy a llegar a mi Bautismo"
"sisters, I am sad because I am not going to be able to make it to my
baptism". We told her we have it all taken care of and its moved to
Saturday and said that Satan is just trying to stop her from being
baptized. it was so funny because she said "no tengo miedo de Satanas.
El tiene miedo de mi" " i do not fear Satan, he fears me. " she told
us she is not going anywhere once she returns either tomorrow or
Thursday. :)

Monday at zone meeting they talked about a power hour where we go out
for the busiest hour where there are a lot of people out and contact
them all. Well, this week we decided to our first power hour around 7
when we Tend to see a lot of people. We did it in the busiest part of
our area. We thought it would be busy at least, but it wasn't that
busy. We didn't find anyone who wanted to talk to us. We had a miracle
though that was pretty cool. We still hadn't found anybody to invite
to be baptized that day and we were feeling a little discouraged.
After that we decided to go see a less-active in the area and she had
some friends at her house. Some friends she had referred us to but
they hadn't been available! We taught them and invited them to be
baptized. At first they said no, they were already baptized, but we
were firm, redid the invitation and they accepted! Two miracles in one
night.
