This
week was a really great week, and we had a ton of fun finding a ton of people.
At zone enfoque we went to, the zone leaders set the goal for our zone to find
60 people a week, and this past week we found 61! It’s absolutely amazing!! For
our part, we had a great miracle. It was late at night, and we didn’t have
anything to do, so we were contacting, and walking towards our piso. Well,
right as we got out of our area, we contacted a lady standing by a bench, and
she at first didn’t want anything, but then, I don’t know what happened. We
just started talking, and kept on talking, and ended up carrying her bags all
the back into our area, teaching a lesson as we walked, and coordinating with
her to help her friend move the next day. So, we went to go help move, and
found 3 more amazing people to start teaching. They are all Romanians, and are
very interested in the English classes we teach, as well as learning more about
the gospel. It was a huge blessing, and all happened because we were still
contacting late at night, even after we got out of our area.
The next thing that’s amazing is that we have 2 investigators with baptismal dates, a mom and her daughter. They are Dominicans, and really humble, and very kind. They came to church yesterday for the first time, and loved when all the kids got up to sing for mother’s day, and stayed for all three hours. The little girl has made friends in primary, and by the look on the moms face I don’t think she’s ever been greeted by so many people at one place before. It was truly amazing to see the ward just naturally take them in, and involve them in everything. I love this gospel and the way it changes people for the better.
