Hola!
So this week I officially adopted my second daughter. We got put in a trio for the week, and I got to finish up the end of Hermana Nicolosi’s training. So we’re were 3 gringas right now, just until tomorrow morning though :) She’s super sweet, and we went and stayed in her house because it’s close, a lot bigger, and has AIR CONDITIONING. The most amazing blessing ever. It’s actually the house I lived in the first month of my mission when Hermana Sanchez and I were homeless, so good memories.
So this past week we’ve been working in both areas, La Pastora and Guadalupe, and it’s been fun to teach some different people and also interesting to teach in a trio.
One of our investigators, Lupita, is doing sooo well, we’re pretty excited/happy about her. She came to church the past few weeks, participating in the classes, has a few friends at church now, is reading the Book of Mormon, and should be getting baptised this month if everything goes well.
Here’s something I really liked from sacrament meeting yesterday. There was a talk about prayer that really made me think about my own prayers. Sometimes we get into the habit and don’t really remember that we’re talking with God; it’s just like if we’re ordering at McD’s. Or like talking to ourselves. He shared the example of Enos, how he had hunger to talk to God and had so much faith that he prayed for the whole day and night. So, just a little invitation for the week to make our prayers a little better, more personal, and remember that we’re actually talking to our Heavenly Father. I know He always listens and answers us and loves us.
Have a great week!
