...a hurried message from Harrisonburg :)

Querida Familia,

     I'm super sorry, Mom....but I only have like 15 minutes left and I still have to write President Wilson...I just had so many other things to address today;) 

     That and no one told me the super bowl score so I'm just a little bitter;) a member texted us updates throughout the night. Seahawks were up, and then the last thing he said was that the Pats won. So I don't really know what all happened in between;)

*We had a great and BUSY week!

     Wednesday was MLC, which was fun. And then on Friday we had our Zone Meeting. I gave a training on our purpose as missionaries and how we can know that we're fulfilling it. I focused on the story of the Tree of Life from Lehi's dream. It's one of my favorites. 

*We saw a lot of miracles!

     Ana still won't accept a date! We made the baptismal calendar, she quit coffee, she's been to church multiple times, has attended two baptisms, she's read through Jacob, everything. We're really pushing for this weekend, the 7th. We've already planned the baptism and are going to make invites. We've scheduled the building and are planning on moving forward. If by that day she still won't do it, then we'll know that we've done everything we can! The Branch Council kind of disapproved of it...but we've prayed and fasted and feel like this is the right thing to do. If it happens last minute, that's better than not happening at all! We're just trying to act in faith:)

     We found a new investigator, Odalis. We tracted into her and she almost accepted a date in the first lesson! She read the folleto, and in the second lesson, accepted a date. She said it answered all of her questions about which church is the true church!:) She's excited about reading the Book of Mormon:) She's a young mom with three kids, and we're hoping her husband will also be on board with it.

     We had a member with us last night, Hermana Bety. Our lesson fell through and so we drove to a different complejo to try a different investigator family. When we arrived, she said she had a friend who lived there. We decided to visit her friend instead! We were able to visit with her, Fanny, and her husband, Jose. They were really sweet and have a lot of potential!

Okay that's all for now.

Love you lots:)

PS pray for Ana :)
