MIRACLES

okay... who says that p-days are relaxing... it is like the most stressful day of the week! We had SO much to do today and now we have literally 20 minutes to email. We had to like spread out our email time throughout the day today so this is going to be like SUPPER short and I apologize for that. This week has been amazing though! So cool. So Sister Loo has like a voice recorder thing that she like plugs into the computer and then she just like mails home little voice recordings so she doesn't have to type everything out... its like way nice. Perhaps I should get one? Who knows. There has seriously been SO much to do this week. Our investigator Rebecca is getting kicked out of her house so we have been kinda stressed with that trying to call women's shelters and everything. She doesn't have a car, job, phone or a high school diploma but she wants to get baptized. It is a catch-22 in multiple ways. We have seen some amazing miracles this week. Jorge was baptized on Saturday which was awesome! So cool.

Sister Loo and I have literally been going NONSTOP all week and man it has payed off. I am exhausted. All we wanted to do today was sleep ALL day. But that didn't happen haha. K really quickly I will tell you about my favorite miracle and then I will probably have to sign off.

We had J'leeta a member in our ward who felt impressed to mark all her favorite scriptures in the BoM  and she told us to give it to someone we were teaching. Someone that would appreciate it. The next day we are talking with Rebecca trying to comfort her and get her motivated to get a job and figure out what she was going to do. She got a really cool priesthood blessing and then we had to leave but she had 20 minutes before institute started so we told her that we would run out to the car to get a BoM for her. I grabbed one off the back seat and out of 20 BoM's sitting on the back seat... guess which one I grabbed? J'leetas! So cool. We took it as a sign that we needed to invite J'leeta to Rebeccas next lesson. So the next day... Sister Loo and I had been praying SO hard to find someone new to teach, to find someone that we could teach the restoration to. It was amazing because when we showed up at Rebeccas with J'leeta... Rebecca's friend Pablo was there and he was suposed to be at work but his car broke down... so he sat in on the lessons with us. Rebecca got her purse and took out the BoM that J'leeta had marked in. J'leetas eyes lit up like fire and she was SO excited. Rebecca told us that she had read all the scriptures that had been marked and that ALL of them hit her really strongly. Especially Enos 1:4-8. So we read that scripture with Pablo and Rebecca and it was PERFECT. It tied in SO well. And we taught a mini restoration. Here is the amazing series of events that led up to that moment....

-we drive 45 mintues to visit J'leeta

-J'leeta feels prompted to mark up a BoM

-we visit Rebecca and I coincidentally grab J's BoM

-Rebecca feels prompted to have us come visit her

-We feel prompted to have J'leeta come with us to the lesson...

-Pablo's car breaks down so he is home when we stop by to visit Rebecca...

-Rebecca reads Enos 1:4-8

-WE GET A NEW INVESTIGATOR.

We have had so many amazing experiences this week! That same night we had a huge dance party in the HUGE rainstorm. I thought I was going to die on the way home it was like Noah's ark style! So nuts! Sister Loo and I had a blast this week! We are SO tired but our obedience has payed off!

Me: "Dude we are doing SO well at being obedient this week!"

Sis Loo: "I know! In fact, I think we are working overtime..." #honestly #deadtired

Church is true.
