That's Just What I Do
Hola! Well, obviously it has been a great week because it ended with calling home. It was so wonderful to talk to everyone and to see all of your beautiful faces and to see all of the instagram pictures.
I know I said that I would be writing on Tuesday but things have been crazy here with transfers and so everything has gotten mixed up!
So basically in addition to the 18 new missionaries that our mission was planning on getting we are getting 9 missionaries who are waiting for their visas and the MTC was not sure if the visa waiters were going to be able to make it here on Tuesday so today is a normal P-day and transfers will be on Wednesday this week!
The news for transfers is that I will be staying here in Novato with Hermana Zurita but I will also be training one of the visa waiters as well as continuing to train Hermana Zurita! I am excited! It is going to be interesting to see how a trio works but the best thing is that we can go in and teach a single man because there is three of us! Hahaha! Oh the things that missionaries get excited by! Well... a little bit of change is always good so I am ready for this new adventure!
Yesterday after Hermana Zurita and I talked to our families Hermana Zurita told me that she enjoyed listening to me as I talked to my family and noticed that I talk to my family the same way that I talk to her, to other missionaries, to our investigators, to our members, and to anyone else.
She thought that was neat that I am just myself with everyone and I love that I have continued to just me myself! I often feel like I have lost a little bit of my true self but I guess it is still there!
This week has been great! We have seen SO SO SO many miracles as we have tried to be faithful and obedient. In one day this week we contacted 10 people, taught 5 lessons, invited one person to be baptized and found 2 new investigators! It was an amazing day and we had prayed so hard for it!
Our two new investigators are really elite. They are so awesome and we are excited to continue to teaching them!
This week we talked a lot about how we cannot have success if we have fear because we need to have faith to have success!! Our district leader invited us to write down our fears and then do it. It is such an amazing experience! So I would invite you to do it! Just throw the fear out the window!!!!
We also had an AWESOME mother's day party this week in our branch! And boy do my Spanish friends know how to party!!!!!!
Things are going great and they are just going to be better. The more companions the better!
I love you all so much!
Enjoy the hot weather!
Love you!
Hermana Hillary
