H.A.R.D.
Buenas tardes! So I promised a better letter this week and so get ready it is going to be awesome!
So first all of this week has been H.A.R.D and it is really easy to get discouraged but I have also realized that H.A.R.D. can also mean that Heaven's Angels Reign Down and I have really seen how true this is. This week more than ever I have felt Grandma, Grandpa Clyde and I am sure many many others watchong down and helping me know where we should go and what we should do!
This week really has not been that bad but we have just had many trials of our faith but it has really helped us grow. It has just been one of those weeks where the success did not come easily and we had to work even harder to achieve success but when the success came it came in great abundance.
On Tuesday we had an amazing Zone Meeting! We found out that sooner than later all Spanish speaking missionaries will be going to the MTC in Mexico City! I am a little jealous because that would be so sweet to learn Spanish in Mexico but I have made it without it so all is well. We also found out that on June 23rd missionary work is being revolutionized! President Monson will be having a fireside with all of the missionaries worldwide and he will be announcing some changes to missionary work! So it will neat to see what will happen!
We had an aweosme lesson with a less active single mom and her family. We talked about the importance of missionary work and how even though they are young they can be missionaries now! these little kids are so awesome and were really pumped to share the gospel. We have had really neat experiences helping members realize that they have a responsibilty to share the gospel! We really need the members help and so we are trying to help them realize that they can join the ranks with us for this battle.
Also...... for the big miralce of this week we had the impression that we really needed to go to visit one of our investigators Ilse and so we went to visit her but as we pulled into her area we saw that her car was not in her parking spot so we were a little discouraged but we decided to stay in our car for a few minutes and then we decided that we should pray and just go and see if by some chance she was home. Then as we were opening our eyes from the prayer we saw that her car was pulling into her parking spot and that her and her kids were walking into their house. It had been a hard day so I began to cry because I was just so happy. We gave her a few minutes to get inside and to get settled and then we went and we had a great lesson with her about Heavenly Father's plan for her and we had the chance to meet her husband who we had never met before. It was amazing! She is progressing so quickly! It is those miracles that just making everything so worth it! I know that Heavenly Father will bless us when we have done all that we can! This week I am glad that I can say I did all that I could and even though it was hard we saw the blessings that came from all of the hard work!
Then yesterday we really wanted to complete the 10-3-1 and we had 2-1 so we went to an appartment complex and we planned to find 10 contacts or more importantly 10 people who we could bring closer to Christ. It took up to almost the last door but we did we contacted 11 people and then later that night we had a lesson. So we did 11-3-1! Ya! Baby! We were so happy and it felt so good!
So basically moral of this letter is that Heavenly Father will push you to the last second but it is always worth it we must do 10 mins morethan we can and then he will bless us!
Also transfers are next week... who knows what will happen to me!
Love you all! Keep up the great work!
Con mucho amor,
Hermana Hillary
