Little towns, big bugs

Okay... this week was so spiritually packed, it just like punched me in the face.... or maybe that was the heat... we literally have not stopped sweating since weve got here....but thats a other topic...

We've literally been guided by God so much this week.

We did a Family Home Evening actividad in the church and got to lead a bunch of youth into running into the walls, and climbing chairs looking for a tree... we were doing the dream of lehi... hahaha

and we had huge changes to our schedule this week that all of our studies are like super short so we can leave to work... and so we WORKED OUR BOOTIES OFF THIS WEEK!! And im really sunburnt, and my comp is really new to the mission, her body is dying because shes not used to this... but it was awesome...

We had a guy tell us the first time that we met him that hes going to marry his girlfriend, and hes going to get baptized. 

and then we went and talked to his neighbor, and she said that she doesnt like talking to anyone that knocks on her door, but she felt really good when she saw us, and we walked passed her and when we turned back to talk to her, she knew that she needed to listen to us. She also told us shell be baptized with her little girls... 

and then... well i cant tell all the awesome things this week but we did go to another small town and had the sacrament in the house of a member.. we had the church service in her house. there was 11 people... and it was so full of the spirit... to see that God really knows his children... and it doesnt matter if youre the only member in your town, and if you live really far from the church in another town... God knows you, He loves you, and if you stay firm in your faith, he provides the way. I felt so much love in that little house as we huddled around a table with the sacrament trays. We tried super hard to have a normal service. i gave a talk.. hahaha and as we sat there with the flies and mosquitos eating us alive, i felt really the sacrifice that Jesus Christ did for everyone of us. As we ate that bread and drank that water in silence, I could see the sacrifice. Really feel the sorrow and the love he felt... he did that because he loves us. Do we take the sacrament because we love Him?

Afterwards the members were super excited and took us to see their friend that they havent seen in 26 years... and they were like super happy to see her and then they got down to business and said, "We're here because we love you. And because we want you to know what makes us so happy too." They got to share the joy of the gospel and this lady, their friend... and i was touched. really. Do we want our friends and family to be happy? And if we do, why arent we sharing this glad message? They got to testify to her that she'll see her parents again one day... it was a day of so much testimony and so much amor. God loves us so much. I hope you all never forget that... but he also loves his other children... he wants them to come home too... talk to your missionaries... visit people with them.. talk to your friends... give them this message of eternal happiness and hope. 

I love you all!! I know this church is true, and that god really has a plan for us.. i can see it everyday. Hes guiding us... I taught a class of the youth yesterday... and I asked them.. do you know God lives? They said yes. And then I asked, How do you know?... they were a little speechless... until one kid said, I KNOW he lives because he sent Jesus Christ for me. He was born FOR ME.

Thats just awesome. hahaha

HASTA LUNES!!!!
