Momma!
Wow it sounds like you have some fun trips coming up! Can i go when i get home? :) I very much enjoy traveling :) But that all sounds so fun! And i cant believe how many people are going on missions now! They are the best :)
Also, HAPPY BIRTHDAY THIS WEEK DALLIN! :) Hope its the best one ever! :)
This week was CRAZY! So what we have been doing all week is pretty much just preparing our investigators for baptism because we are (hopefully) going to have 4 baptisms this saturday!!! Crazy right! The 4 are Orlando, Pablo, Felix, and Jose Fransisco. Please be praying for them!!! :)
Okay i have so much to write i dont know where to start... sorry if i make no sense this week haha :)
This week we found a new family we are teaching and they are soooo great! They were a reference from a member in my old ward of Angamos! The mom and the dad have not attended church yet but their kids have gone for the last 2 weeks and really like it. She told us that she remembers doing Family Home Evenings with her extended family before and that she really liked them, so, of course, we are going to prepare a family home evening and teach them how they work! I am super excited. I really feel like they will progress :) Their son Bruno is the CUTEST little kid ever. He is 10 and he is so polite and gave the cutest prayer in the world at the end of our lesson. I already love all of them so much :)
Next with Felix. Okay i don't have favorite investigators, but if i did, he would be up there :) So we have been teaching and he now has all the lessons! So he will be getting baptized! :) Its super interesting how we have come to understand him so well! The gift of tounges is SO REAL! Sometimes he is just telling us a story and at the end me and Hna,. Sandison just look at each other and we are like ´´how did we understand that...?´´ but we totally get it! Its CRAZY! I wish i could video tape our lessons with him. I am sure we look ridiculous because we have to draw, and act things out, and really it is pretty funny! But we are super excited for him.
Our English class is going really well! We have so many people that come! We have kind of got a teaching plan down and people actually participate! We found another new family through it so we are definitely succeeding :)
So also this week we were walking around and we had a feeling like we should go to the bishop's house. So we went and asked how they were doing and his wife, Milagros, just broke down crying. She said she had been feeling really depressed and that she was praying for something to help her and I guess we were her answer. It was super cool. Also she told us about a dream she had, where President Monson came into her room and talked with her. Background to this story real quick, her son ran away a few months ago to live with a girl in Chile that he met on his mission. So anyways, President Monson talked to her and told her that her son needed to come home. So she woke up kind of sad because she thought he was never going to come back. But, the next day, the day after we visted her, her son called her and told her he was coming home! Crazy right? She was so happy and she is now President Monson's #1 fan :)
So today for pday was probably the funnest thing of my life! We went SANDBOARDING. Kinda like snowboarding, but in sand :) We went out to these sand dunes with a couple other missonaries and it was sooo fun! I will send pictures today :)
We saw soooo many other miracles this week but my mind is too scattered to remember all of them. But really i am just sooo happy and things are going soooo good here. Transfers are Saturday but i am pretty sure me and Hna. Sandison will stay together so i am pretty happy about that. :)
Well, that is it for this week. I love you all sooo much! Pray for missonary opportunities! :)
Love,
Hermana Lauren Jane Mitchell :)
