This week has been pretty good so far! We haven't gotten the package
yet but hopefully soon we will get it! And I haven't met Liz yet, where is she
in Chicago because I would have to search for her because we only have Spanish
wards in our building so we are not in contact with a lot of the English
members. That's so great too that Amy is coming home from her mission! I feel
like she just left!
This week was great though but there have been some crazy things
that have happened! Our area and our ward are progressing so fast! We have a bunch
of investigators in our area that we are working with that are close to being
baptized they just need some more time so there are big hopes for this coming
month! We have this new investigator who is 17 and her name is Eli and she came
to church this week and we were so excited! The young women were so great with
her and brought her right into their class and it was great! She is so funny
but it is so sad because her parents are having tons of problems right now and
she is in the middle of it so it has been rough for her but she said one of the
most sincere prayers I have ever heard and we know that the Lord is blessing
her! Then on Sunday we have been teaching a family and the youngest son went
into the mental hospital and so we went and taught him and it was a pretty
weird experience. The only visiting hours were right during church so we had to
miss our two classes and we made it back just in time for sacrament!!
Also, this week we were on exchanges with the APs and I went up to
their area so we were in the Lake Shore YSA so we were right near the city on
the north side and it was so much fun! It was so different though because it
was the first time in forever that we haven't had a dinner appointment! But we went
out to dinner and we were eating and my companion at that time walked in the
bathroom and he brought his iPad in there and then there was this super shady
guy who walked in after him. You know he is shady when you feel scared around
him and you're living in the south side of Chicago hahahaha. Anyways he walked
in the bathroom after him and he saw the iPad and basically just took off
because he found the iPad. The other elder remembered literally 30 seconds
after he had gotten out of the bathroom but the guy had just walked out of there.
He had stolen it so fast! I felt so bad for the other elder! So we were pretty
bummed but we went and contacted and we got shut down by like 90 people on the
train and the last one we met was amazing! She was talking about how she had
something tragic happen recently and she has been praying for something in this
last week and I straight up told her that God was answering her prayer right in
that minute! I felt like such a boss saying that! We had so much happen that
day and so it was a miracle that we got on that train because if we would have
had the iPad we would have been somewhere else.
Nothing funny though happened this week though sadly, just a bunch
of normal stuff!
