Well hello Family,
This past week was a stressful and insane week, but I learned a lot from this week. The main thing of this week is Nery and Estela, they are our investigators who are practically members, but have been waiting for Nery to get divorced so that they could get married and baptized, the good news is that the divorce finally got approved, and the latest Nery could remarry is June 7th, however, they were asking us and all the missionaries to pray for them, they told us lots was going on, but wouldn't tell us till it was over, and we finally found out yesterday, that Estela got accused of petty theft, which she didn't do and got sent to jail, and will get deported. It is soo sad! But of course there is a reason for everything, since they are not living together anymore Nery will probably be baptized on Sunday, and then he and the kids will be moving to Mexico, so when Estela gets out Nery will be able to baptize Estela, so in a way it really is a tender mercy, but I just feel so bad for that family, but they have great faith, Nery said probably Estela needs to be in jail, because someone in there needs her, and she can be an example. But I know everything does happen for a reason, and we just have to trust in God. It was a crazy week with that.
We did however find 4 new investigators this week and we had a ward activity, that we created by ourselves, for a movie night, not very many people showed up but it will be better next time, I'm sure!
Also I hope you are all jealous, because we stopped by a member the other day, and she said come back tomorrow, I'm making menudo, I was praying for a way out of it, because I tried it once, and I didn't like it, however this time we had a huge bowl, and I still did not like it. Menudo is cow stomach, oh man if you ever get a chance to try that stuff... don't!
Anyway well, things are going well here, and thank you soo much for your love and support. I know more this week than ever that God lives, and that he really is all powerful, and has all wisdom and really does know and love each of us, He really does help us to learn and grow so that one day we can all be like him.
I love you all soo much!
Love, Hermana Love

It's March Already!
Wow! Time is flying...fast! it's already March, that is nuts! Well this past week just flew by,we were talking to the Elders in the ward yesterday, they were saying it's crazy that we are beginning week 4 of the transfer, I insisted forever that it was only week 3, I looked at my planner and sure enough it's already week 4, time is going soo fast!
This past week we had interviews with President Becerra, he really is an inspired and loving man, I really believe I was sent there at this time so I could know President and Sister Becerra, when we went out to the parking lot after our interviews Hna. Thayne noticed a nail in our tire, so we took it to the auto shop, and the nail was in a spot that couldn't be repaired, the mechanics were laughing that the car only had 5,000 miles and we already had to get a new tire, it was soo lame, but it's pretty funny at the same time.
Well we went to see Nery and Estela this week and they told us that they will be moving in June back to Mexico, they said they want all the blessings that the Lord has in store for them, and right now, they are not obeying and honoring the law, because they don't have papers to be here, so they said there going back to Mexico, and if the Lord wants them in this country then they know he will provide a way for them to come back legally. They are soo inspiring, Nery also believes that he will get a court date this week, so he can get divorced and can be baptized by the end of this month. I am praying for it to be true, they have waited for over a year to be baptized!
This past week we also picked up 2 former investigators hopefully they will progress well! Anyway I love this mission, and I love this work! I am seeing the hand of the Lord in all aspects of my life and in the Lives of all the people here in the Rimgrove south area. I love you all! And so does God and Christ, they really love us more then we can begin to understand. Have a good week!
Love, Hermana Love
