I HATE pitbulls. Sooooo much. They are ugly and they hurt little children on bikes. But on Monday we went to go to our appointment and the lady's daughter was outside with their dogs. One of them was a pitbull. I asked her if it was nice and she said he was VERY FRIENDLY. Sooo... i had to pet it just to say that I had. It was a very nice one. And that was a big accomplishment for me!!
Okay now onto my AWESOME week!! We had soo many really spiritual lessons and moments and I learned a TON this week. We were also running around crazy allllll week!
Tuesday, we did studies and then had to go get the car fixed. The brakes were making some weird noises and it ended up being like metal on metal. NOT GOOD. sooo we ended up being there 3 HOURS. We were dying. it took SO LONG. We talked to/shared the gospel with every person that came in, waited for their car, then left. It was great. And then a member brought us some donuts. blessings!! But then that night we went out with the Orellanas and none of our appointments were home. I was so frustrated. But then i just felt like we needed to teach the Orellanas. So we sat in their car by the other sisters apartment (waiting for them to get home) and taught them about Family History and temple work. The spirit was so incredibly strong. Hermana recieved revelation that she needs to make a sacrifice and go to Guatemala to get information for family members that are waiting for her to take their names to the temple. It was AWESOME. I was just so grateful to be a missionary. And so grateful for the temple and the wonderful privilege that we have to do the work for those who are deceased and didnt have the opportunity to hear about the gospel here on the earth. That there is still hope for them and they can still be saved. Our Father in Heaven loves us SO MUCH. Its incredible. :)
Wednesday was a little rough at first and we couldnt find anyone to teach!!! But then we ended up finding 2 news, Fabiola and Nancy that are AWESOME. I am really excited to start teaching them more!! Then we had a lesson with Eloisa and Jessica. They are doing AWESOME. They came to church yesterday and absolutely loved it. Eloisa is even sick. Its just been the most amazing experience to watch Eloisa become reactivated and Jessica told us she would be baptized next saturday!! She later told us she wants to learn more but we are sooo excited for them. They are amazing. We love them so much. But then we taught english class and Nelson came!! We got to teach him about family history and temple work and it was something so new to him but he is excited to start and get going! sooooo cool. Hopefully this helps him grow his faith enough so that he can be baptized soon!!
Skip to Friday! Thursday night we drove up to Sugarland and stayed with the Sanders because on Friday we had the amazing opportunity to go to the temple with President and Sister Ashton, President and Sister Crane, and some other sisters from the mission!! IT WAS AMAZING. After the endowment session we went to a training room where we were instructed by the temple president and president ashton. I learned SO MUCH! Some things i still need to study out more but it was an amazing opportunity. I am so thankful for temples and I know that they are truly the House of the Lord. And i love going!! I have made a goal to go very often when i get home!! So then when we got home, we went and taught some more new investigators, a daughter and her mom and they are GREAT. So cute!! And are very interested!! YAY!
Well that is basically it! its been a great week and we are being greatly blessed. I love this work and I KNOW this church is true!!! :) Hope yall have an amazing week!!
Thank you for all your love and support!!! :)
Con amor, hermana dorian!
