It's Raining!

July 27

Hola!!!!

Wow! So much has happened this week! It is crazy! First I just want to testify that prayer works! Haha, I have 10 months in my mission and I can finally testify that it works.

Wednesday we were contacting all the references that we had and NO ONE would open there doors, at this point we had not found one new investigator the whole week and we were feeling a little depressed, because we had received 40 references last week to contact this week. When we got to our last reference, and were about to knock on the door I said a small prayer asking God to give us one new person to help and to teach, just one.

We knocked on the door and...no one answered...we just stood there for 2 minutes wondering what to do next. We left the house and right across the street we found a woman crying in front of her house using a little kids t shirt to wipe away her tears. We walked up to her and started talking to her. We talked to her for about an hour, she told us a really sad story about how her husband died and that she was having problems with her 3 little kids and how she had just found this house to live in (which had NOTHING in it!) and a ton of other problems. We shared a message with her and we got a few members to help her out (I just have to say the Ward I am in is AMAZING!!! I LOVE THEM!!!) and she ended up attending church with us this Sunday! And she loved it!!! She is one of our miracles this week =)

In other news, it decided to pour in Obregon this week, and let me tell yah, in our area when it rains it floods! I was really tempted to go swimming. Ill send some pictures for proof ;)

I just want you all to know that the mission is the best!!! And I miss you all! Have an awesome week!!

Love,
