WOW! SO MANY MIRACLES THIS WEEK!
So on tuesday, we went to a lesson with one of the people we are teaching in Rio Grande, and he wasnt very nice, he had some pretty mean things to say about everything we believe en la iglesia de jesucristo de los santos de los ultimos dias... so we left that appointment feeling pretty bad, but then later had an appointment with a lady named Marima, she has 2 kids and her (spouse?) has 2 also, and we taught her the 2nd lesson, the plan of salvation, and told her about how famlies can be forever together! and we extended a baptismal date and... SHE lit up and SAID YES!!!!!! so we are super excited to keep teaching her and hopefully teach her family also. That was a tender mercy after a hard lesson.
Then on Wednesday we had MLC, which is the mission leadership council, which is for the zone leaders and sister training leaders only, but since I am in a trio with the STLs I got to go! we went to this land that the churchowns in agua buenas which overlooks all of san juan and has a super pretty view!!! we learned so much about how we can be better missionaries and help the work here in Puerto rico!!! so that was really awesome, i would elaborate but i dont have much time!!
Then on Saturday december 1st we had the worldwide day of service for the iluminaelmundo or light the world project/campaign that the church puts on every sunday, and our district spent the whole day paining members home and it was so fun to get out and SERVE!!!!!! They were all so grateful and it was really awesome to see how small simple acts of service can change people lives!
Then this morning our district went on a hike in the national rain forest el yunque!!! and it was SO pretty! you could see the end of the island on all sides from the view point! its crazy how small this island really is! I love this island and these people and I love serving these people!
Thanks for all your support,
Love Courtney
