Lluvia de gatos y perros!!!
In last last few days, we have had some CRAZY storms. but I mean crazy!!! Last night we were teaching our investigators, and BOOM! High winds, lighting EVERYWHERE (and every color), and super hard rain. It was crazy! It was late and we needed to be in our house in a few minutes, so we called taxis and even thought about walking, but nothing worked. Thew people we were with said that in these storms, trees fall like crazy, and take power lines with them, for that reason we didn't walk. So, we were stuck in there house. The mom had her granddaughter of about 3 there, and she was so scared. So we sang I am a child of God, and she calmed down really fast. Then finally, out of nowhere, our recent convert showed up in her car and gave us a ride home! There were trees EVERYWHERE and yes, lots of wires. we almost hit some because they blended right in. We felt so protected. Also, it was special to be able to help calm the little sweetheart down only by singing. (secretly it helped her youngest daughter of 12 years as well).
As for Anel, SHES GOING TO BE BAPTIZED SATURDAY IF ALL GOES WELL!!!!!!!!!!!! She had her interview and she is more than ready. She seriously is so special, there are SO many things against her to get baptized, but to her, nothing is more important. She has such a firm testimony. She says she feels "full" like she had a big empty space and now it is finally full. If she is walking in the street with us, SHE contacts people first and shares her testimony. She loves sharing what she knows and we gave her preach my gospel (in Spanish and English) this week and she loves to study it!!! She helps the ward so much. She helps them to love each other more and she participates a lot in the classes and people always leave thanking he for her comments. I cant even tell you all the wonderful things that happen with her because there are so many small special miracles.
Saturday, we were supposed to have a special ward fast. we planned it all out that everyone was going to meet Saturday to start and then finish after church. Well, Saturday, NO ONE CAME. NO. ONE. We were a little sad, but we had our little devotional and then said our prayer to start. We later learned that some of the members DID start there fast, they just couldn't make it to the church. Some of them came to the small lunch we had after church. Sometimes I just wish we could have like a potluck like in South Dakota... or a fast like in Utah...but one day it will work out!!! Yay!!!
Well, I was thinking, next week, I probably wont really respond to many emails, so please only write me if you have something really important, (or if you are a missionary). Thank you.
Love you all sooooo very much! This has been the best time ever. Have a wonderful week!!!!! LOVES!!!!!!!!
