EMAIL CHAT 11/30/11…………

My week has been all right.... my day horrible.

(Why?   What’s wrong?)   Just little things that are accumulating one of those kind of days.....

So this week has been pretty good....

1. We have two baptismal dates: Elia (which we can't really attend the wedding, sad story) and Michelle. We still have to make sure that Michelle is really ready, but she seems promising.

2. We found Jose and Janet. They had split for a few days and there was drama and all sorts of things. We hadn't heard from them in a little and we didn't know what was going on. Well we finished with a lesson and it was 8:30. We were just going to head back home and plan, but I felt hey we have time, let’s go to Maria (recent convert who is allowing Jose and Janet to stay in her house.) She lives next to us. So we passed by and they were there. And Jose was glad to see us. We ended up teaching them and you could feel the spirit was there and they were thinking and listening. Then before we finished he asked if he could speak. He knelt down and said some nice things to Janet and then asked for forgiveness. She accepted and then he had mentioned after that he wants to get married in our church. So we are hoping that soon they can get married and then get baptized and get their lives straightened out. It was a nice experience for me to see this. I felt I had helped someone finally for a long time.

3. We found out that we are going to have our interviews at our house.... uhhhhh???/?

4. We have mission goals now that we need 23 member present lessons every week, for every companionship. We are lucky if we get 3 a week, and 25 new investigators a week... we are lucky with 6. Please PRAY HARD for us too. Also we are fasting on Friday, eat lunch on Saturday and fast again. Almost 48 hour fast. Our zone is fasting so we can make our goals and try to help Puerto Rico get a temple.

5. Good news we visited one of our investigators that we are trying to help get married. It's hard because they don't have sufficient money to pay for a good wedding. They have been investigating for a long time and Zory has a strong personality, but we get along well. She said that she will fast with us this Saturday and pay her fast offerings... THIS IS HUGE. Pray that she will also do that for real and see the blessings of her sacrifice and faith.

6. I got something cool for you for Christmas, but don't know what to get for Kyle.

7. Hermana Ghersi had Denge (fever) which means we have diseased mosquitos in the house.

8. I'm worn out from this mission.

9. Hermana Miller wrote and it was great to hear from her!!!   (Jessie’s trainer.   She went home in the spring.)

10. Thanksgiving went well. We ate with Hermana Taylor first (we ate pork and rice) and then we went to Elia's and ate the best turkey in the world that she made. And the rice tasted like stuffing, It was great! I wish I wasn't full when I began I wanted to eat more.

(Wow!  On the fast……)   Yeah I can say I have never fasted for 48 hours and it will be rough... trial of faith, huh?

... I want you to know I am trying to learn how to cook PR so you can have good home cooked meals.   (Yummmm)

Well I have to go... I LOVE YOU SO SO SO SO SO SO MUCH AND YOU ARE TRULY MY ANGEL!!!!!!!
