I love Hermana Erickson so much! Omg. She is amazing! She and I work really well together! I'm excited for this transfer! She's on fire. My little grand baby. (don't worry I never call her that to her face.) I'm so happy right now! I'm literally exhausted everyday because we are working so hard. I've missed this!!!
My Spanish is getting so much better already! It's crazy how the gift of tongues works! Such a blessing! We have a super solid investigator! Omar is 18 and total future missionary material! So elect! "Hermana, we are here to help you with your spanish.... You need it". Thanks 2nd councilor of the obispado. He said that in front of the whole ward council...I was border line embarrassed, but I know he's right.
EAST SIDE! Yup. I didn't think anything could be as ghetto as North Las Vegas. I was wrong. Hahaha. The soundtrack of my life is police sirens, and gun shots. It's great. There are so many humble people that live in this area, so lots of people to help come unto Christ!!! I met this lady named Big Mama, she searched the whole apartment complex with us to find one of our potential investigators. She said she is going to look into our church. I love her!!
Sunday a guy walked into our ward from the street. Our members quickly introduced us to him. He spoke no Spanish, and so it was a blessing that it was a missionary homecoming and she did half English, half Spanish. He said he was looking for a church and felt like he should come to ours. The members were awesome. One hermano came up to him and said,"Welcome my brother. We love you. Please come back". It was so beautiful!! Mandela said that he felt something different during the service. We got all his info, and invited him to stay for the 11am English ward. He did, and now the elders have an appointment with him for tomorrow! It was so cool!! #milagros #elect
Got preached at....2 days in a row. One by a legless man who blames his mothers pact with the virgin Guadalupe on his legless-ness. And the other by a baptist preacher. Those were fun.
I got hit on by a creeper. I'm used to laughing at my companions getting hit on....It's not super awesome to be on the other side. But then Erickson got hit on by a 6 year old on the street. "Hey girl you cute. I'll see you tomorrow". I told her that's she not allowed to date 6 year olds.... Hahaha. Then yesterday a guy was like "sorry, I can't talk to you. I need to throw away my dogs poop." I've never been avoided by the excuse of poop before....
I was knocking on a door last night.....I had a silent freak out because a spider had crawled on my arm!!! Erickson was laughing so hard. I've realized that I have some mad dancing skills.
We are going to start biking this week! I'm excited!!! It'll be very effective in this area!! :) I got a new bike from the mission office. I'll get it at sports today!!! I'm so excited!!!
I miss Havasu like crazy, but Ensign is keeping me very busy!!!! It has been a crazy awesome week. The funeral went great I cried like a baby (no surprise there), but now grandpa rader is in the ICU. Things aren't looking good, keep praying for them please!!!
This week I was studying a lot in Acts! I finished the book this morning. I love Paul. He is my favorite example of a dedicated and awesome missionary! He loved the lord and the gospel so much that he was willing to sacrifice his life!!!! I love this gospel. I love serving the Lord. It's such a blessing!!!
I love y'all! Keep choosing the right!!! Remember Heavenly Father loves you!!!
