On Wednesday we had Mission leadership conference and it was awesome! WE have a lot of new leaders in the mission so we went over the basics of how to be a leader and what to do and what not to do! We learned a lot and it was nice to be able to go over the basics!
Then on Thursday we were out contacting and talking to people and we were walking down the street and looked over and saw a lady crying in her garden... turns out she had fallen while gardening and it was very obvious that she broke her arm. Her neighbor ran inside and got a sheet and put a sling around her arm, we talked to her to try to get her mind off the pain and eventually the ambulance came and got her. We are going to go pass by again when she gets back home and try to teach her!
Then on Friday (my moms birthday:)) We had some huge miracles!! We went to Nancys and abdiels, a mom and son that we have been teaching and when we got there abdiels friend was over. We decided to watch the first book of mormon video to help explain a little bit more of why we have the book! We did and it CLICKED FOR Nancy!! She was like "oh now it makes sense... God loves them so he commanded them to leave Jerusalem!!" and then Abdiels friend said "wow i really like that, ive always wondered what happened to the people on this side of the world!" He gladly took a book of mormon and we got another cita!
Then we headed to another place where we had 3 citas! (appointments) and ALL 3 fell through... we sat down on a bench under a huge almond tree and started to eat a snack and call other people to see if we could pass by when all of a sudden a man walks up to us and says "Well im glad some people enjoy my porch as much as i do!!!" Turns out he had grown the almond tree and it was basically his porch now! He sat down and we got to talking, he is 27 and has an 7 year old son! We chatted for a bit and he showed us his albino porcupine and then shared the book of Mormon with him and he loved it! He said this is exactly what him and his son need and that his heart felt happy after talking to us! then we walked an hour home and got french toast cheesecake and it was delicious!!!
On Saturday we met this cute lady who is raising her 3 year old grandson and she said we could come back on Sunday to share a message and she was cleaning her whole house with a hose (yes on the inside) (and yes that is normal in PR) So we helped her clean her house and then shared the restoration with her and she was so amazed and said that this is what she wants to raise her grandson in a church with good standards and the truth!!! it was another amazing miracle!!
Basically I love my life and missionary work is the best thing ever. I love talking to strangers and helping people come unto Christ!!
also I met some people from Germany and now i wanna learn french and german...!!! Hahah
