September 7, 2015

Mother!  Okay I literally died laughing at your story with Addy hahahah!  Poor girl!  But it made for some good laughs right! :)  Gosh i love you guys haha!  And Addy is going to be 12 years old!  That is SOOO crazy!  They are all growing up soo fast and i cant believe it!  Where has the time gone..?

Well, this week was AWESOME!  So we had surprise interviews with President this week!  And my interview went so well.  He is so motivated and wants to see baptisms and has some really good ideas on how to help us.  But also in my interveiw he told me to be getting ready to train a new missionary!  Woohoo!  I am super nervous hahah!  Especially because now they are having north american train other north americans!  I cant train someone who doesnt speak spanish!  I mean i speak it well but not perfectly!  So yeah i am pretty stressed.  Only 2 more weeks until transfers!  AHHH!

Also this week we taught one of our new investigators named Cynthia.  She is honestly so amazing!  Since we have started teaching her she has been praying and keeping up with commitments and doing everything.  We also found something interesting about her husband yesterday that i actually need some help with (dad, this is where you come in haha).  Her husband is a Mason.  And they had TONS  of questions about Joesph Smith with the Masons and honestly I just keep thinking about National Treasure and didnt know how to respond haha.  I know that he was a Mason but nothing else about it.  So, Father, if you have any information for me that would be super helpful so i can know what to tell them or anything that could help me.  He said nothing but good things about Joesph Smith though.  I guess they have like a brothership thing and he believes everything we teach about him.... So i guess we will have to see what happens haha! 

Also a MIRACLE happened this week!  So Carlos got baptized a few weeks ago right?  So he got his school scedule and has classes every sunday at 8:40.  I am not sure if i metioned this earlier or not about his schedule... But anyways.  Every week he has been having to just come for sacrament meeting and having to leave super fast afterwards.  Well, this sunday in the afternoon he called us and told us that his class got changed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  He can now attend all 3 hours of church from now on!!!!!!!!  We have honestly been praying for this and he has too.  He was so happy and knows now for sure that Heavenly Father hears and answers our prayers.  

We have been finding and teaching a lot this week.  It has been fun to get to know the ward better and be able to connect with them.  Because honestly we cant do ANYTHING if the ward and the members arent involved.  We are so blessed here to have such great members!

Today for Pday we went to the beach with President and hermana rasmussen!  It was soooo fun hahaha!  They are honestly like our parents out here.  They are so loving and nice and do fun things with us and i love it!  I have honestly never been happier :)

Honestly i can t think of anything else i need momma haha!  I sometimes think of stuff throughout the weeks but i forget!  I will think about it this week and write some things down so i wont forget them :)  And yes i see Cole somtimes :)  its super funny because everyone knows were friends and the assistents see him all the time and give me updates as to what hes doing haha!  Its funny :)  and yeah i have been talking to Lauren!  She is doing so good!  She has 2 more weeks left int he MTC before shes offf :)  And yes i got your last package!  THank you OSOOO much!  There is NO peanut butter where i am at so i have been enjoying that TONS!  Gosh i miss american food!  There is a big lack of creativity here haaha :)

Well, that is it for my week.  I love you all SOOOO much!  I hope you have such a good week this week!  

Love,
Hermana Lauren Jane Mitchell :)
