Man this has been another crazy week. Hna Rivas and I have been able
to see so many miracles these past couple weeks, we're so incredibly
blessed. We have sooo much work in this area that I really am not sure
how we'll be able to fit it all in. Heavenly Father has blessed us
with a large handful of new investigators and then we have the usual
families that we work with on a regular basis. I never thought on my
mission I would have the problem of having too much to do! So we are
continually praying that we'll be able to have the wisdom to use our
time wisely and effectively. But all in all this week has been
awesome. Sister Rivas got her iPad so she is super happy haha. As far
as exciting things that have happened, we had an awesome lesson with
our investigator O. She is one tough cookie, but I've always
thought she was awesome. She has been having some serious doubts about
the church. I asked if she had been reading from the Book of Mormon or
praying and she admitted that no, she hadn't, but she wanted to start
trying again. It was cool because it started out as one of those
lessons that could go so horribly wrong, but by the time we left, the
whole situation just felt peaceful and happy. I'm glad that she is
wiling to take that step to really find out for herself if the church
is true. I love moments like that, when it all just kind of clicks to
people, that all they have to do is ask in faith, doing the little
things such as reading he scriptures and praying. I love that Heavenly
Father cares about us enough that He wants to make sure that each one
of us knows He is there and this is what is true. I feel so blessed to
be a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and
have the fullness of the restored gospel.
Also fun fact of the week! All of the missionaries from the DC North
Mission got to be ushers or balloon carriers for the National Cherry
Blossom Parade so if you find that on YouTube I'm in a green shirt
right off of the camera helping people in their seats. It was actually
really fun! Well sorry this is a shorter email, we've been at the
National Zoo and then National Cathedral all day! I'll include some
pictures. But I love you all and wish you all the best! Les quiero y
que tengan una buena semana!
