Vilma

SO last week, I said that it was a beautiful week because almost every day was 60-65 degrees.  It was a beautiful week......and now.....well, back to the cold weather.  Actually today is about 50 degrees which means we're driving with the windows down!!! i LOVE IT!!!

 

So,  Vilma (the lady from Las Vegas) did get baptized.  It was amazing!  She came out the font balling...she was SO happy.  I wasn't sure if I wrote last week or not but she decided that she's not going back to Vegas.  She decided to stay here.  She's already found a job and an apartment!  She is proof that the Lord really does bless people when they make good decisions in their lives and decide to live the commandments.  There are SO many people that live in this area that don't have a job right now and Vilma found 2 jobs in a day...definitely not a coincidence!!!! I know that much for sure!!!

 

Mario got baptized too...it was such a great day.  There were 75 people there at the baptism.  It was so cool!  The ward hasn't had attendance like this ever and everybody is very impressed.  We're trying to have a baptism every week and have that many people show up every week...we'll see!!!!!

 

So, not that much has happened this week.   The biggest news is: WE'RE HAVING ANOTHER WEDDING!!!!  YAHOO!!  The girl is an inactive member and her bf isn't a member.  he's going to get baptized the next day...we're pretty excited!  Hopefully, this one will go smoother than the last one.

 

OK...... first gross food story.....ijole!!!! (that's what the spanish sisters say all the time....it's like "ee-hoe-lay")  SO we went to mama Villareal's house Sunday for lunch.  She is AWESOME!!!  She served a mission back in the day!  Her daughter who is a return missionary goes with us to our appointments all the time.  Mama Villareal even comes with us too..she's great!  SO....back to Sunday afternoon... we got there, all ready to eat tacos!  I sat down at the table and she sat a plate of tacos down in front of me.  They smelled great.  I piled on a little bit of onion, cilantro, salsa....ya know....the goods and I went to take my first bite and while it was on its way into my mouth, one little piece of meat fell out the back of my taco and onto my plate.  I just happened to look down and to my surprise there were taste buds on the piece of meat that fell out of my taco....I almost DIED!!!!!  I had already taken a bite and I had to eat it...and I couldn't be rude and not eat the rest of the tacos.  They were actually pretty good but the pieces with tastebuds on it TOTALLY freaked me out!!!  Not kidding...I've never experienced anything like that before.....SICK!!!!!

 

On Monday we had a zone find in our area which means that all of the missionaries in our zone came to our area and tracted to help us find people.  We received SO many referrals...it's so awesome...hopefully this will help us have more investigators

 

Anyways, I love you all so so much! Thank you for your prayers!
