Personal Miracles

Dear Familia Mia....

Sorry this letter is gonna be a little shorter then usual. I’ve been a bit distracted. sorry (:

This week I mainly just want to talk about a few personal miracles. On Saturday, we were fasting specifically for some of our investigators and also to find a family that was prepared to hear the gospel from us. That very night we were led to the most adorable blue house. We’d chatted with the lady a few days before but never actually visited them. She was home alone doing little projects that she sells online. We talked for a few minutes and shared my favorite part of The Family Proclamation (the part that says happy and successful families are built and maintained on principles of faith, prayer, repentance, forgiveness, love, respect, work and play etc.). We asked her how she felt and she told us that she agreed whole heartedly. At this point her whole family came home! She’s married, has 4 kids, and lives with her parents and brother. they are all so adorable! their oldest son is 12 and this is the funny part. His name is Joshua, he looks like Noah (like identical) and he’s the same age as Elijah. ha-ha! it was such a sweet experience for me! they also have a 10-year-old who loves soccer and has brown hair (Malachi, Talmage and Cannon). Basically its like our family but all compact into fewer people (: When we asked the 12-year-old what he though his family could do to follow Jesus he said "I want my family to go to church together. I know that it will help us to all grow spiritually together". It was the most sincere desire of his heart. so sweet!

Another hilarious thing that happened was when we were in a noche de hogar (FHE) with Marta, Felipe and their family. Marta was a little frustrated with her husband and his brother and her kids and so in the closing prayer this is basically what she said "Heavenly Father thank you for sending my lovely, wonderful, precious, beautiful and special princess missionaries to my house. Please bless Eddy to stop being disobedient and rude and mean and stubborn. Please bless my husband because his character is fatal (direct quote ha-ha) and my naughty children to do what they’re told. But thank you for these incredible, bella, adorable missionaries that you’ve sent me, they’re my favorites and I love them and they’re perfect etc. etc. ....." I almost died laughing and I could feel my companion next to me giggling the whole time. Needless to say she’s our new favorite investigator.

Sorry that’s all I’ve got time for. Love you all and hope you know that you’re in my heart, thoughts and prayers!!!

All my love to wherever you are,
