Crocodiles!!! They are so cool. This is our convert. Just kidding, but I think he likes the water, so maybe? haha Anyways.....


This week was stressful. Thursday, we were just about to start our weekly planning meeting, when one of our investigators sent us a text that said she had a miscarriage, and was home alone (with her 5 year old son.) Also, no one in her family lives here and everyone else was at work. So, we went running to her aid. Its kinda a special moment when you get to just be there for someone. It made me think a little about when my Mom passed away, and how everyone was there. A lot of times we think, "I don't know what to say! I don't know how I can help!" But truthfully, just be there. TH}hat is more than enough. And, when you share the gospel to help, it makes it a million times better. We gave her a Liahona from February, and she Loved it!


Saturday we had an activity. One of my favorite things to do. We made......... CUPCAKES!!!! :D Sadly, it wasn't super well attended. But, those who came enjoyed it. But the best part? We did like we always did in singles ward. Took the cupcakes to the less active/inactive members and gave them a note and showed our love for them!+ It was really exciting. We got the chance to go visit Consuelo. She is 91 years old and stuck in her bed. She is quite sick, but she was so super happy to know that the ward cared about her and that she isn't alone. This Saturday we have another activity planned, and my companion and I are SUPER excited. Hopefully lots of people come..... Because if they don't.... I will be sad, but keep going, because that's all you can do!


Also, there was a problem with some of our converts, so for now, we cant visit them. :( So sad.


Another cool thing happened. We went with a different sister than normal one day. She asked if we had ever gone to a park that, SURPRISE! is in our area. We honestly had never gone to that part of our area. So, she said we should go. So, we were walking, and we asked if she has ever given a Book of Mormon to a -c}complete stranger. She said no, so, we pulled one out and asked if she wanted to. She said she would try. We were walking in the park, and she said she wanted to give it to a lady sitting on the bench. Well, turns out she is a member! Of our ward! But, goes to a different ward.... But said she was going to go to our ward because now she knows what time. It was really great because we got to see the hand of the Lord. If we hadn't gone, we never would have found her. And we found a bunch of different other members live there as well! How exciting!

Sometimes my mind thinks a lot more in Spanish than English, so sometimes it takes a lot longer to write than it should, and I am sure there are lots of errors. Lo siento.


Espero que todos pueden tener una semana tan maravillosa!!! Les amo con todo mi corazón!!
