This week was long, but looking back on it it really passed by fast. We have been working hard, knockin' on lots of doors and lookin' for lots of people. Elder Cueva is great, a super hard worker, I am glad we are together this cycle!
On Tuesday, we had a contacting activity as a zone in Independencia 1. Usually during the contacting activities, we go on divisions with other missionaries and during this one I was with my boys Elder Crockett and Elder Ortman. It was awesome! We had a fun time and met a bunch of cool people.
Fast forward to Thursday. Keep in mind that my district only has 4 companionships. Thursday morning I went and did 2 interviews for baptism! Honestly I am gonna miss doin that after the mish, it is such a unique experience, to be able to see someone, repentant and ready for baptism.
On Sunday we saw some crazy miracles. We worked our butts off all week and found a few people to teach, but it has been pretty hard. We were expecting just one or maybe 2 people at church, but FIVE people came to church! And we had never even seen them before! 3 of them are a small family, new to the area, just barely moved here like 3 days ago, and they want a new life and are looking for a church. Boy did they pick the right one! The other two are two kids that live by a members house and the member invited them to church, they said yes, she brought them, they had a good time.... God is good :) We have appointments with them during the week, I KNOW they will be great :) Pray for us please and thank you!
There is a quote by Elder Holland that has been in my head recently: "Mans extremity is Gods opportunity", or in other words, God acts when we are at our limit. Remember that miracles only happen AFTER the trial of our faith! We need to get to our limit first. :)
Love you all!
