This week we had a great week and it went by so fast! But yes we did get to go to the temple this week but we only went with our zone! It was so amazing to go and we also got to see some sealings! A few of the senior couples did them so that we could watch and also President and Sister Woodbury! I loved being able to see them because I had never watched one before!
We also had some huge miracles this week as well for the work in our area! We have been struggling lately to find new investigators for a while and we keep setting goals and praying but just nothing was working. It was a little sad because we have been doing so much contacting and we can get lots of people's information just nobody was turning into new investigators! We just keep working and working though and the Lord is really starting to bless us! On Tuesday we were on exchanges so I stayed in our area and I was with a missionary named Elder Alvey! We were contacting in the trains for a while that morning and nothing special was really happening but as we were getting off the train to get onto another one there was his guy who was waiting for us. We hadn't seen him while we were on the train because we were talking to others but we get off and he stops us and he was like "you look way familiar" to me. In my mind I was just thinking oh that's random but maybe he had seen me on a train before. But then he said he spent last thanksgiving and around Christmas with me and I was so confused! He then said that he was family with Carmen who we taught in Midway and that he knew Juan Perez!! He remembered me although I had only seen him one time before!!! It was so crazy because he made a special effort to talk with us and he happens to be a young single adult going to school on the north side now so he fits perfectly into our area! We have an appointment to teach him tomorrow and we are so excited! It was such a miracle!
Yesterday, we had stake conference so that was great to be able to see everyone but we had another huge miracle! At Stake conference we were introduced to this guy named Diego, he has been here from Colombia for a few weeks and he is staying with his aunt! His aunt is just reactivated in the Chi 3 Ward but he is super interested in learning about the church and coming to the YSA Ward! It's sweet too because he speaks mainly Spanish so it is a huge testiment to me of why I am in this area!! It is such a miracle and we are so excited to meet with him his week! The Lord is blessing us so much and it is amazing!
