Hello family and friends!!! How have you all been!? So you're all
probably wondering who's my companion... Drum roll please. Hermana Demars!!!
She's amazing, she's from Montana (all my companions have been from Idaho or
Montana) and she is just full of life and so much excitement for the work, it
has been a blessing to have her as my companion. We are honestly already so
close, I love it! So this week has been full of adventures, it's flown by!
So some updates on investigators, Anna, our 87 year old investigator
sent us a text saying she didn't want to visit with us for a while. That was a
bit heart stabbing because she was such a miracle. But, it's just not her time
right now and we can spend our time finding other prepared people!
And our other investigator, Flora, she is just the biggest miracle
ever. We came to church on Sunday and the ward just completely loved her and
made her feel right at home. We met with her yesterday and she said she just
loved it and she is wanting to raise her family in the church. She told us her
boyfriend is less active but is returning back to the church and it is
absolutely incredible to see. She had a fecha (date) but we met with her
yesterday and it's a bit up in the air right now because she wants to wait
until her boyfriend comes to Spain in May. So we will meet with her tomorrow
and discuss it a little more!
And our other family we our teaching, they were baptized in another
church and we met with them a few days ago and pretty much had to just convince
them that their baptism is not valid. They had quite a few questions and we
left them answering all of them, but they were still doubtful about the
priesthood authority. We left them with the invitation to read the book of
mormón and ask to know if its true because that is going to be the way they
understand that the priesthood power was restored to the earth. It was a great
lesson, now it's in the hands of them to really know if it's true. It was so
cute though, they have a 9 year old daughter who had read the children's book
of mormón and had written questions for us. It was an absolute miracle.
So we have quite a bit going on here, it's just miracle after
miracle. I love being a missionary!
