1. We got free tamales! haah this guy with a white bucket was going around selling tamales and he gave them to us for free!!!!!!
2. i did hair for service all week hahah! Normally for service we go to Salvation Army but this week everyone found out that i do hair, So i did mama juanita, mama Quintana, Mama Herrera, and both of my companions hair!!! It was so fun to do hair again! And the members really appreciated it!
3. My companion Hermana Gutierrez found out that she has really bad scoliosis! Which isn't funny it is sad, But what is funny is that she walks around like a hunchback grandma ahahh! She is always cracking jokes about how old she looks!
4. We sang happy birthday and made brownies and everything for Mama Juanita!
This week was amazing! It was really great to get to know the ward more and help them more! We also Taught some really amazing people this week! We taught Blanca and her family this week, I love them so much and they truly are amazing! Blanca reminds me of Monica, my favorite investigator in Eagle! We also started teaching this Jamaican family the Lees! They are so sweet, and it is so fun because in Steamboat we taught Jamaicans and they taught me some Jamaican words. so when I first met them they were so impressed hahah! I can say WOG WON MON? Which means whats up! And I can say WA YA DA PAN. Which means Its all good. and I can say LICKA MORE which means see you later! I think that every one on my mission just hears me speak other languages and their jaws drop because i am such a gringa! hahaha.
My favorite thing that happened this week that was an absolute miracle was on Fast Sunday. i decided to fast for Blanca and her family and for The opportunity to find the ELECT or the person who was prepared to listen that day. Then we showed up to church and we were waiting for Blanca and she wasn't showing up, and i was getting discouraged. But then during the passing of the sacrament i decided to pray and ask god if it was in his will that they would come, and if not that he would show us who was ready or what we should do. Then right after the sacrament this lady named Rebecca came and sat down. We talked to her after and she said that she had prayed about where to go to church the night before and that she had gotten the answer that she needed to go to the Mormon church! We taught her the restoration and she had some amazing questions and then we got her an appointment to teach her again! I am so thankful that god answers our prayers. i know that he is so aware of me and each one of us. he knows how we feel, he knows what we need, and he knows the direction of our lives! He is literally in every detail of our lives! I am so grateful for the opportunity to be here on my mission. I have already learned so much and I am excited to continue to learn more! I can not believe how close I am to half way! Time really does fly! I am thankful that I have the time that i do have, i am grateful for the opportunity to be diligent and to testify of Jesus Christ and his love every day! I do not know where i would be without our Savior, that is why it is so amazing to me to be able to share that testimony with others! I hope you all have a great week and that you remember how much I love you and appreciate you! LA OBRA MISIONAL ES MARVILLOSA! ❤💞💜💙💚
AND Happy Easter to everyone! Everyone go watch the Prince of Peace video! IT IS SO GOOD! Remember that Christ lives and loves us!🐇🌻🌸
