this week we have focused on finding new people to teach the people that the other sisters where teaching are die and don't want to progress! so we wanted to find new people! we focused a lot and though a lot of prayer and looking we found so people that honestly are so ready for this message!
we have our area book and the other day i was looking though it and i saw a paper that really it just called me and so i told hna castillo that i wanted to go there we headed and these 2 teens are never home... so we have talked with there grandma and it just hadn't worked i felt kinda bummed because i had really felt that we needed to go there and i last time we went there grandma said that she thought that they were playing in the field soccer so we headed other there to find them we started asking the kids if they knew these two teens and they said no and we started talking with them.. we one of them asked us what we were doing and then just started asking us so many questions we told him we would love to talk with him and asked him were he left... he half way explained it and we left.. well we went to our other appointments and they fell though so i said we could go look for the house of this kid... well we went were he told us and it was completely wrong so we started asking the people luckily we had asked for is name and last name and the names of his parents and also luckily everyone know who they are here! haha so started look and and like 3 people helped us and finally we found the house and his mom was sitting outside so we started talking with her and she is great!! haha she asked us how we knew her name and we told he we had just talked with her son angel and he said we could visit them! haha it was great it is a family of 5 kids and the mom and dad! and they are all like the sweetest people ever!! really they are great!! and we are excited we are going back to visit them tonight! so we will see how things go!
after we headed back to our other appointments and we passed a house that was a referral before and they were never home and hna castillo said lets knock again and it was the best thing that has ever happen a 20 year old girl named antonela came out and i had the best lesson that i have seen in my mission! it was so so so so so great! we talked about prayer and faith in Christ no more but it was great! she had question like " how do i know what god wants for my life" "where is you church and when are your meeting" "when can you come back and talk with me" "how has this changed your life" "when do the people of you church get bauptized" "what is is like after your bauptism" "do you have weird rules" and really it was so great! we had our mission leader with us he is joven and is 25 and he just got bauptized like 2 years ago and he was able to testify and she was shocked!! it was amazing! really she is golden!!!!! keep her in your prayers! antonela! but we had a visit with her Saturday and she called us early that day and said that she wouldn't be home because she went to her dads house on the farm but we are so excited to be able to work with her!! she is amazing! really chosen in this moment to hear our message!! it was amazing!!
