Happy Mother's Day!!

If your life as a missionary is not crazy, you're not doing it right. 

We worked real hard this week, man we are so tired all the time!

Hermana James and I are doing really good, I love her so much. We have so much fun together and we work really hard and well together! Her Spanish is so good and I'm so blessed to have her as my companion:) I even got my first Mother's Day card from her!:) 

We went contacting and knocking a lot this week. And we were blessed. Not because we found a lot of solid people, [ though we did find a few diamonds in the rough though :) ] 
the blessing was that we were happy. It was Wednesday I believe that we had knocked on everyone's door FOR DAYS and no one wanted to listen. It wasn't until dinner time when the members asked how our day was when we realized what had happened, that no one wanted to hear our message. I believe God really helped us that day to not be discouraged, cause we were just so happy that day!!

That same thing happened again on Friday, except we contacted a potential the hermanas had met in the fall. Miguel, he is soooo interested! We taught him the restoration and he loved it! He invited us to eat lunch at his work and we can teach him more there haha and he said he would ask his boss to get Sunday's off so he can come to church, cause he's realizing life is not all about work and money. He's very prepared and we are so excited for him!(: 

All our appointments that night(Friday) fell through, so another potential we went and contacted! He wasn't home, but his daughter was home and she was soooo nice. We will go back this week to visit with the dad who is so nice as well (: 

It's cool to see how when we are diligently working and finding, God is with us and blesses us in more ways than just leading us To those who are ready, he can bless us with the spirit and feelings of happiness and joy, knowing we are in his work :) 

I know this is Gods work. I know he listens to us and hears our cries for help, and I know he answers our prayers.

I am so grateful for my sweet family, It was so fun to see them this last Sunday. I know families can be together forever, and That knowledge makes me so happy.
I am grateful for this time I get to give all I have to the Lord and share my testimony and His gospel!
