Week 56

Hey I actually have some time today to email! :) But still not the full 2 hours :p 

This week also flew for me too! So this past week has been go go go like usual. We have been visiting a lot of people. One of the member families that we saw is the Blanco Family. they are super cool and they are super missionary work oriented. They shared with us there conversion story which was super sick! They said one day they were just sitting at home when they heard a knock at the door. The wife answers the door and recognized them as missionaries and said that they would have to talk to her husband. (Keep in mind that Brother Blanco looks super intimidating) He goes up to the door and asks them what they wanted (and he said that they looked sooo scared and kept stumbling over their words). They then told him that they (the missionaries) had said a prayer that the next door they would knock on would be a prepared family. The missionaries told them that they were about a mile away when they said that prayer and this was the first door they knocked on since. (And the Blanco family lived down the hall on the 3rd story of one of the many apartment complexes on their block). So brother blanco let them in and 3 weeks later they were baptized and were sealed in the temple and are very active in the church!  So that was super cool to hear!

Then we were able to see this kid named Rafael who is 14 and we are teaching his family. So we went by and brought Danny from the young mens and we had a super awesome lesson. We read about Abinadi and after we asked Rafael to ask in his prayer if the Book of Mormon was true, and during his prayer he said "Well, I already  know the book of mormon is true, but I just am double checking." haha it was soo cool! 

Also our investigator Yazmin is getting married this saturday and baptized the following week. (oh yeah did you get her friend request for FB?) she is doing good! She says she wants to send you pictures of me everytime she feeds us! 

Well I gotta go!

Love you all to pieces!!

Elder Hays!
