We literally see miracles everyday here. Even when you don't think your inspired to go somewhere like needing to get more contacts lenses fast one day we went to parking lot of a Mexican grocery store... you really are. God totally directed our path as we ran into someone who used to be a very active member of the church, his girlfriend isn't a member and she has a lot of questions. Over time he has become very inactive but no other church has felt more at home as the LDS ones and so we will be teaching them.
See just little things that happen and you know you are where you are supposed to be at the time that you're supposed to be there.
Yesterday was zone meeting and so president and his wife came. We had interviews and in my interview with the president...idk its weird but I'm not the only one who can't believe that I've only been here for 3 weeks. It seriously feels like so much longer and pres was like "wait. youve only been here 3 weeks?" "ya three weeks yesterday" and he was like "honestly it feels like you have been with us so much longer. not only three weeks." So i guess that could be taken as a good or a bad thing?? :)
One of our investigators Jose Gonzales moved from Florida and is now living with his recent convert sister and her family. He was the typical 20 year old boy you would expect so when he first met the missionaries this is how he introduced himself.... sister says "so your the brother of Lucero?" Jose says "Ya and I have my own religion."
Well now he is GETTING BAPTIZED!!!!!!!! On December 11th BABY!!!! boom! aw It is seriously sooo exciting! Jose has completely changed his life and he even went from having the long curly hair to the short curly hair. He looks like a saint. Yes a latter-day saint. We had given him the baptismal commitment last week and he was 80% sure but then on Saturday I had the prompting to ask him again and he just flat out said YES. He then explained to us that he had really been praying to receive an answer and since then he is holding on to that rod tight.
:) I love you and miss you sooo much!
thanks for all your emails they really boost and help me throughout the week. hope all is well and I cant wait to hear from you! :)
Paz y amor, Hermana Maughan
