Last 2 weeks, and a Transfer

Apr 10th 2017

This week has been a pretty interesting week!

So this past week we got a notification from our investigator, Brian's mom and she said that he couldn't be baptized on the day that we had set him up to be. We still don't know why or when he is going to be baptized but we are going over tonight. So hopefully we can figure it out and he can still be baptized sometime this coming month. He is really cool! He is ten and saw his cousin get baptized a while ago. He wanted to get baptized! He is from a part member family. So hopefully his family will reactivate and we can get another baptism out of it.

Another cool lady that we are teaching is Elonia. She is really cool. We have only had 2 lessons with her but she understands everything we teach. She didn't come to church, but that was mostly our fault. We didn't know that church was combined with the English ward and thus making church at 9 and not 12! So...

We did have a miracle a church though. We randomly got a phone call from a guy named Moises. The other sister had contacted him and gave him our number. He said that he wanted to come to church. Since church had already started and was almost over, we told him that he could come to the other English ward at 2, and he did! We have a lesson with him later this week.

That is about all that has been happening this week! Thanks for all you love and prayers!

So everybody! I am getting transferred! WHAT! I am totally freaking out! I leave tomorrow! My new area is going to be the Saratoga zone and the San Tomas Branch. My new companion is Hermana Reyes! I have already met her and she is super duper cool! I am so excited! I found out Thursday night when Hermana Worthington received a call to train and I did not. So I spent all week packing, writing notes to investigators and members, and also stopping by to say good bye to a ton of people. I am so sad to leave this are but I know that the people here are in good hands. 

I am especially sad to leave my best friend's, Bladimir, Arturo, and Humberto! They were all upset when I told them. Ugh! Good byes are the worst!

All of our investigators are doing great! We see Bladimir every Tuesday and Saturday. He is getting stronger every time we see him. Even though he can't get baptized right now I know that he will one day. He is my miracle! We haven't been able to see Elonia for the past week so I hope everything will be ok with her. Maria P... I am not so sure about. We haven't seen her in a while either.

We have two really cool people right now. One is Moises. He is the one that randomly came  to church last week! We had a lesson with him and set a bap. date for the 29th of April! I will be able to return for that if it happens! I totally believe it will! The other person is Nancy. I remember Hermana Killian and I had knocked on this one door once before and the people weren't interested, but I had a feeling to try it again. Nancy opened up and looked skeptical and asked if we could come back another day. All of a sudden she randomly changed her mind! We taught the first lesson right away! Cool right? She has a bap. date for the 30th of April. We just need to get her to church.

I love you all! Keep doing the small and simple things and great things will come to pass!
