I went on splits twice this week!!!!! I had never been on splits before! It was amazing, and we saw so many miracles!!! We got to cover more of our area, and our members are freaking boss! I got to teach my first lesson completely in Spanish, in 5 weeks! Let's just say I need to start practicing my speaking a lot more. I can write and read pretty well, but if I don't speak it everyday, I notice a difference. Good thing a few of our members are fluent! :) Yay!
My companion is amazing! I love her! We work really well together. Every time we visit members they ask "How long are you two going to be together". We always tell them "6 weeks or however long Heavenly Father wants us together". Then they always say, "Dang. We're going to have to pray really hard that you stay together for a long time". We are a really good team! :) I love working with her! We both love getting to work, and giving it our all every day! She's the best!
We were walking, it was hot, and everything in this town is uphill. As we were walking up a hill, I noticed a group of people. My first instinct was to walk past, and continue looking for the house. But I sucked it up, and went over to talk to them! Turns out it is a part member family! And she really want's to come back to church!!! It was such a powerful experience!!!! We offered to say a prayer with her and her family, and they were so happy! They also gave us cold ice water! :) #happymissionaries
Our water filter exploded in the garage. I woke up, and went to the garage to get my clothes out of the dryer, and I stepped in a river. I was like, "what the heck". I turned and saw that the water filter had done severe water damage to the wall, and was making a river in the garage. It was a huge mess, and this happened only a few days after our house was haunted. (now that's a story for another day)...
We taught Carol and Jessie the 10 commandments and Chastity. Neither one of us have had the opportunity to teach Chastity in english in a long time. It was so awkward. We ended up just having them read the pamphlet out loud. #awkturtle. Also it was so cute! On Sunday they came up to Brother Hauke, and said,"We have a question for you. Will you please baptize us on the 23rd of May?" They are so excited! <3 <3 Oh my goodness, I love them so much!
I met David Archuleta's biggest fan. She's 87....She has 2 copies of all his CD's, one for the house and one for her car. She has his book, a movie about him, and all his videos bookmarked on youtube. It was the craziest thing ever! I loved her, mostly because she sang David Archuleta songs to me. #closestthingtorealmusic #tendermercy
So yeah. That was my week. Nothing too exciting. We had a very productive mother's day! We went on splits, and together visited 7 people in an hour!!! So awesome!
I love my mission so much!! Tui and I are going to be doing a 40 day fast challenge, combined with the purification challenge! We are striving to be more obedient so we can see more blessings and miracles in our area and for the rest of our mission ! :)
Choose the right, remember who you are, and never forget that your Heavenly Father loves you so much! Les quiero mucho!
