Haha ok well not really BUTTTTT we just got the call for the cambios. AND IM STAYING IN ROBLE OESTE!!! My companion leaves and Ill be recieving Hna Casanova. I think she has about 4 or 5 months in the mission. She was Hna floress (my comp now) comp in the MTC! Meaning Ill be dying here by the temple. And Im definetly not mad about that one!!
This week has been super great. It was really hard at the beginning. My companion got an email from her family this week saying that her Grandpa died so we did a lot of divisions so that she could recooupeate... so most of the week I dropped her off with a member and I left with another hermana!
But we had the best experience this week. I left with Hna Calderon (She ends her mission this wedensday so were sad about that) and I felt the impression to call an old investigator, Nely. To be honest I had never even met her but we called her up and she got really exctied. She told us that she wasnt in her house but that she was with a friend- ¨¨But hermanas, come to my friends house and we can take advantage of the time and you can share with both of us!!¨¨ So we got really exctied and went to visit them. When we got there they were all ready sitting to hear us. So later Nely told us that she had only met Marlin (the friend) about 2 weeks ago but she has been visiting her and telling her aout God. Before we called she was telling her about how 2 hermanas from the mormon church used to visit her but they havent been coming lately. The Hermana Marlin was bummed but Hna Nelly told her that our church started at 9 if she ever wanted to go.... SO THATS WHEN WE CALL AND WALK IN. WE start the lesson and Hna Calderon immediatly felt the impression to share the story in Matt 14. ¨¨Oh hombre de poca fe, porque dudaste?¨¨ or, oh man of little faith, why did you doubt (sorry I dont remember the words in english!) She just started crying and said that that was exacly what she needed to hear. We continued to talk about the happinesss and the blessings that the gospel brings. The next saturday (2 days later) we passed again. She was so excited to receive us and had Her Book of Mormon all ready sitting out on her table read and yes, she read!!! WE talked about the importance to follow Christ and how we can do that. We challenged her to be baptized in just 3 weeks and she accepted!!! She is so ready. Sometimes people are just looking for the truth... they just dont know where to find it!
But as a learned this week. Oh ye of little faith. DONT DOUBT. We should never doubt anything in this work. God is all powerful and all knowing. All we need to do is have the faith the size of the mustard seed and we can see miracles!!!
This week half of our area was closed to us. Were so sad.... cause like most of our investigators live in that residential but you know what they say.... when one door closes 2 windows open (or something like that) so we are looking for all the windows we can find!!!
I love you all so much!!! Have the best week!!
Hermana Nelson
