Hey There!

January 8, 2014

So I have tried to send pictures a couple of times but these computers have many problems and it just gets sad staring at the screen waiting 20 min for one picture to load....I'm pretty patient, but that's pushing it. haha.

But I love you all!! :) This week was the last week of the Big Festival of Lights!! And we had our first night back in our area teaching again! :) It's a bitter-sweet transition but we have been readjusting to the normal missionary schedule and getting back into setting up nightly appointments. It feels so good! We have had a lot of neat experiences with finding new people and this week is full of really awesome people to teach. This Saturday, also was the baptism of Katie Li...not Spanish. she is an Investigator that I along with many other Sisters at the Visitor Center have had the privilege to teach. She is so awesome!! And I have this picture of her with a bunch of Sisters that were at her baptism. It was a neat day.

So we found out that Hermana Graff is leaving Olney II and we find out tomorrow night where she will be going. She has been pretty sick and Sunday morning she was coughing and congested really bad, but she fought through it and went to church to share her testimony for the last time. She loves these members so much and it's going to be hard for her to leave. :( I'm going to miss her too. We have gone through a lot of stuff together and we have learned a lot about failure and bouncing back. 

One kinda funny experience we had was when we went to contact a referral named Fernin that the Elders had had no luck with. Well, we get there not expecting too much and this man opens the door and is on the phone but looks excited and lets us in. We walk in and see his wife who is just beaming at us and after he ended the phone call they just start chatting it up with us like we were best friends. It was awesome!! haha. So after we taught a short message and got a return appoint. Ana, the wife, prayed and I don't know what happened but I got a bad itch in my throat and started coughing during her prayer...at the end she looked up at me and asked, very seriously, what happened? I just said it was an itch in my throat but she got all nervous and asked if her prayer had caused it. I assured her no. The whole mood changed and as we left she just starred at me and didn't say much. SO.....I hope that she will not take that as a bad sign or something. But we will find put this Sat.

This is going to be a good transfer, I can feel it! And I just need your prayers to help me finish strong and give everyday my all. I love you and  thank you for the Christmas you all gave me! You rock!

Hasta ver!
