So the other day when we were in san juan for an activity with alot of missionaries we met this girl named Leyda, who lived in Ceiba in our area! We got her contact information and address and we told her we would stop by her house and visit! so a couple days later we went to the address that she gave us and it led us to this house that was up for sale.... so we thought she gave us a wrong address. So we went to leave, but then felt like we shouldnt.. so we went contacting for the next 3 hours on her street and right when we were walking back to our car, a car pulled up and stopped in the middle of the street a couple feet in front of us and we walked up to it and it was Leyda!! turns out she has actually been trying to sell her house so thats why it was for sale! so she brought us to her house and we talked for awhile and we started teaching her and she is so interested! I am stoked! she also has 3 kids so its going to be super fun to teach her! But if we hadnt stayed on her street contacting we wouldve never ran into her!!!
We are also teaching a bunch of cool people that i am excited for!
But the biggest news.... PUERTO RICO IS GETTING A TEMPLE! these people have been praying for a temple for the longest time!!! When president announced, 12 new temples we were all hopeful, but when he named 10 temples we all kindof lost hope. So when he announced "San Juan Puerto Rico" we all jumped out of our seats rejoicing and with huge tears in our eyes! It was a moment I will remember forever! I cant wait to convert people and prepare them for the blessings of a TEMPLE!!!! Last month when president nelson came and talked to the people of puerto rico he said "better days are ahead for purto rico" and he wasnt lying!!! we are rejoicing over here and will be thanking our heavenly father everyday for everything he gives us and for all the blessings he pours out on us!!
ALSO other big news our mission president called us last night and told us that there were some changes in the mission that involved us.... hahaha we were so scared!! so turns out theres emergency transfers and they are taking some sisters out of an area so im getting a new companion! I am going to miss Hermana Cordova but I know that this is all part of gods plan! and I am super excited for the future and to meet my new companion!
God answers prayers!! PUERTO RICO IS GETTING A TEMPLE!!! ah till next week!!!
