WOW! Let me just say that I loved EVERY SINGLE email that I got this week!!!!! People here in the library probably think that I'm crazy...laughing, crying, laughing a little louder.....Let's face it, I am pretty crazy!
Let's start where I left off last week.....
Friday was Sister's lunch! It was so much fun!!!! All 25 of the sisters in the mission got together at the mission home and had lunch and we just got to hang out together!! The mission home is like an actual house....I wasn't expecting that! AND It's directly accross the street from President Monson's house. Like from the front porch you can look at Presiden't Monson's front porch. I guess there is a house that the church provides for him to live in but his wife won't move so they've just stayed living in their regular house. I attached a couple pictures from the sister's lunch with me and some of the other sisters. All the sisters are SUPER cute! I love them all so so so much! The one picture where we're hugging is Sister Stoner (I know, right?!?!?). She came to the mission the same day as me and we were instant friends!
Saturday nothing too exciting happened....But Saturday night we went to a birthday party for one of the grandmas that live in the ward. We just stopped by for a few minutes to say hello. She would have been super offended if we wouldn't have showed up! So that was kind of fun!
Sunday we had an appointment with Irene and her husband to talk about getting married. We brought with us the secret weapon: ELDER DEHYLE!!!!!!! (it's like daily) He and his wife are full time missionaries in our mission. He is over the entire spanish program and he is AMAZING!!!!! He is the expert for getting people married. It took about 15 minutes in the appointment with him and Emilio and we had an appointment to go down to the marriage office to get their marriage liscence!!! Looks like I'm going to be making a cake!!! YAHOO!!!!! They're getting married March 6th! And hopefully the baptism will be the same day...we're not quite sure yet on that one!
Monday...Have to say the best day of the mission so far. We went with Emilio and Irene and their 4 super cute little girls (Yetcely8, Emily6, Haniah4, Yamilet1) to get their marriage lisecence. Irene was so so happy. And I couldnt believe the 100% pure joy that I felt in that day because they took a step closer, a step of faith. Seriously, I can't even explain it! It's amazing. I can't imagine what it feels like when one of your investigators gets baptized, or even better, sealed in the temple. BEST DAY EVER!!!!!!!!!
Now I can see how much the Lord is blessing me. I have seen so many blessings every single day! I just had to get through the trials of my faith and now all is good! NOw I know for future trials that come my way that there will always be amazing blessings waiting on the other side.
