A Week of Tender Mercies!

Well this week was pretty interesting! It was very good though as well! So this past week there was a training meeting in Arcadia, that some sisters were chosen to go to, but it was crazy because the day before the metting my companion and I were studying when the phone rings and we look to see that it is the AP's and we were nervous thinking it's only the first week of the transfer it can't be ET's but they just wanted us to be companions for the day with one of the sisters who wasn't going to the meeting. So it was really fun!

Then we were getting really nervous because one of our investigators Arnulfo who we have been trying to get a hold of all week, was next to impossible to contact he wouldn't return our calls or anything. So finally we thought well maybe he needs a break but we'll at least text to ask if he wants to come to church, and guess what? He came to church! It was exciting! It turns out he had been sick and working a lot, so luckily we didn't lose him.

Another investigator we had also seemed to be losing interest during our lessons, and after saying they would come to church, didn't show up again, but we went over yesterday, and had a great lesson with him so everything is going well with him still.

Also this week both me and Hna. Mulitalo got the cold, so it was challenging to do the work but still pushing through. So we went one day to check on some formers who live in the same apartment complex as our investigators Nery and Estela, and while we were there they saw us and invited us to come eat, chicken soup, but it was chicken feet soup. We were nervous, but chicken feet really isn't that bad, and it did make me feel better, also while we were over there we went into the laundry room with them, where we met a lady who happens to be very confused about religion right now, and so it's prime for us, we still have yet to find her at home again, but I don't think it was a coincidence that we met her there.

Also we rode the bus on friday! It was fun! But we were very nervous since we never have before, we were hoping we wouldn't miss it that we would have the right amount of money, and get on the right bus, it took us 2 buses to get where we were going but it worked out fine, so it was pretty awesome, and we got to our appointment right on time, so that was very lucky. It was a fun and adventurous day.

This week was very exciting full of miracles and pleasant surprises. It really is true that the lord know and loves each one of us individually, and he knows what his children need, and when he put our faith in him all things are possible! I am so grateful for this mission and the things I am learning here. It's a great experience!

Hope all is well with you all and Happy martin luther king day yesterday, at least I think that's what Holiday it was,

Love, Hermana Love
