So this week was a good week! We started off going to Mendoza for consejo de lideres, which is always a good time. This time president Goates was a little bit bajar la caña (drop the cane) but it was for a very good reason and we are now all working hard on changing the culture of the mission to be more faithful and obediente. It was a very good conference and President actually talked about everything that was bothering me or that I had concerns about during the conference. It is amazing how God knows exactly what we need to hear and puts the words into other people´s mouths!
This week we saw several miracles! The first miracle is Virginia. We went to the hospital to teach Virginia because she is taking care of her mother there because she is very sick. Before we even started the lesson, she said that she wanted to get baptized in Agosto and we put the date with her for the 22nd! We then had a nice lesson with her about the 10 commandments and the law of chastity. She has some doubts about the law of chastity but she said that she is going to pray and ask God to help her sort all that out. On Saturday she came to lunch with us in the house of Hna Julian (a member) and she had a great time. Hna Julian mentioned that he was going to fast that night and she asked what fasting is. We explained it to her and she, without any push from us, said that she wanted to try fasting this Sunday and that she was going to fast for clarity about baptism!! She is so prepared. She also came to church yesterday and she enjoyed it a lot. We are very excited for her and I know that through fasting and prayer she will resolve all of her doubts and will be prepared for her baptism on the 22nd. Lots of prays for her please.
We also had another miracle while walking in the street the other day. On Friday we were just walking to an appointment when a women of about 25 years old stopped us and asked if we could come by and pray in her house!! This has never happened before in which the people invite us to their house. Of course we said yes and the next day we went and we had a nice lesson with her and her sister. This family has a lot of problems and they are in great need of the gospel at this time in their lives. I love how we can be tools in the Lord´s hands to answer the prays of His children.
So things are going well and the time is just passing way to fast!!!!
This next week we will have zone meeting and we are going to travel to Alvear for exchanges!!
Talk to you all later!!
Con mucho amor,
Sarah
