A Wonderful Week

This week we had so many blessings and I know they came after the trial of our faith.

On Tuesday we went out to a part-member family, The husband Steve works on cars and we decided to let him look at our car (it was making some weird noises when we went on dirt roads) and talk to him. He actually did find something wrong with our car, so that was good. He has a pretty crazy past, but he is ready to make changes in his life and agreed to meet with us, we taught him on Thursday, and it went pretty well.

Zone Meeting this week was awesome, ok, it is always awesome, but I love it because I always learn so much! We learned about giving people a vision of Faith and helping them see the big picture, something I think that we have been struggling with. 

On Wednesday we went walking and talked to Bob, we met him a while ago, he is super nice but not interested. Anyways we talked to him, and he ended up giving us 2 referrals, which was awesome. One was his neighbor Donna, who is 94 and just renewed her drivers license! She is the nicest ever, she gave us 2 skirts too.
We were able to set an appointment with Estela for today, which I am so excited for. I don't know if I have ever talked about her but we met her before Christmas and we were able to teach her a brief restoration. This time her husband will be there, we actually saw them at the store this morning, ah I am excited! 

On Thursday we met Jon, who is Melinda's husband who has decided to start taking the lessons as well. He had several questions, which we tried to answer. We taught him part of the restoration on Friday. Basically he wanted to come to church to see what it was all about, he seemed a little overwhelmed, but I think he liked it. 

Bro. Perez, our Ward Mission leader, has been inviting his family to church for a while and they have been coming the last 2 or 3 weeks, which is awesome. He is so excited for them and we are too. They love the spirit that they feel in the church and we finally get to teach them this week! 

We had several people come to church this week that we hadn't seen in a while, I love it when that happens!

I love you all so much, Thank you for your prayers and support!

P.S. So last Monday we had dinner at the Pinelas and we had Carne esada, so yummy! but they had hot pepper corns and a little smasher thing. Sister Davis broke one open and dared me to eat some, so we both did, it was hot! then the Elders had to one up us and eat a whole one. Sister Davis was too afraid at first but we both ended up doing it. It really wasn't too bad, maybe because my tongue was numb, but I am starting to like spicier things.
