References!

Hey yall! 

So much has happened in the last two weeks. We had transfers and I am staying here in Montevideo, but I got a new comp. My new comp is hermana Wilson, she is from Utah. This is her first transfer. We have gotten a lot of references recently which is the best!  Here are some miracles: 


- We got a reference from youtube...that actually answered! Her name is Beatriz and we are also teaching her two kids Linda and Valentino (they are 10 and 13). They came to church last week and accepted dates to be baptized. They are my favorite people! Please pray for them! We are going to teach them the commandments this week. 

- We also got a reference from a member in another ward last week! Her name is Blanca. We taught her twice, she got a blessing of comfort and came to church. She told us this was the path she wanted to take and she felt so much peace during the lessons and at church....but then she texted us and told us she doesn't want to continue. It was so sad, we called her but she wants to take a break. 

- We have member in our ward from Venezuela who wanted us to start teaching his son. We have had contact with him for a couple weeks, but be came to church this week. We had a good lesson  with him after church. He started crying and told us he was going through a hard time but wants to change his ways. I am excited to see what happens! 

- The craziest thing happened on Sunday. There was like 30 minutes left of our meeting and someone was trying to get in the door. A man in our bishopric went to open the door and he walked into the meeting with a man that was at church for the first time. I was thinking it was wild someone just showed up at church out of the blue. Then, during the closing prayer I remembered the man was someone we met on the streets a couple of days ago. We literally had like a 3 minute conversation with him and invited to church. We never heard anything else from him, but he showed up. It was a miracle. His name is Williams and he is from Cuba. Hopefully, we will be able to have a lesson with him this week, but he is super busy.

- We celebrated 4th of July last week with a pregnancy reveal popper....since we can't do fireworks!

These past couple of weeks we have been on the finding grind. I love how we get to talk with so many people everyday and tell them the have a Heavenly Father that knows them personally and loves them. It is such a simple message and sometimes I don't think that much about it, but these last couple of weeks as I said these words many people have started crying. I can feel God's love for them in that moment. Sometimes people just need to know they are loved. Even though a lot of these people don't want to learn more, I am so glad I get to help God share His love for His children.

Have a great week!
