Hola Hola Familia!
On Monday night, we stopped by
to visit Lucia, who is listening to Gospel lessons. She is currently really
sick with liver failure (from being an alcoholic for so many years.) Recently
she has been attending church and has been slowly getting better with the
medication and miracles of this gospel! She has two adorable children, Rosmeli
(age 15) and Romero (age 13), who LOVE to read, so I was able to talk to
them about all the cool series (you know how much I love to read!) It got late, so we made an appointment to
return the next evening, and we brought two Book of Mormon's with us. We shared
the story of the Army of Helaman, to grab their attention of the super sweet
stories in the Book of Mormon, and also to testify and learn of faith in
Christ, and how when we don't doubt there are so many miracles that come!
Romero really liked that story, and
Rosmeli was shocked that such faith had kept them all safe! We asked them what they would do to have these miracles
of God in their lives? Romero said he'd start by reading the Book of Mormon!
Rosmeli thought for a minute, then said she would go to church. The spirit was
so strong! We siezed the moment and asked them if they would also prepare to be
BAPTIZED They planned it on May 31st, so their mom can be baptized as well.
I never could have imagined this. but
I love it! and I love these opportunities and blessings and miracles Heavenly
Father has entrusted with us missionaries. I love all that I am learning,
especially about the importance of the spirit in our lives! That's what I want
for Rosmeli and Romero throughout their lives! I know that's what Heavenly
Father wants for them as well <3" Personal revelations is awesome!
:) I love this service! What a fun week :)
Our air conditioner is broken!! It
also just so happened to be the week where it hit 105! AND we're riding a bikes.
Add all those together and you get is a giant sweat monster!
OH! Here's the recipe I promised, Real Horchata:
·
rice and water in the blender; strain or scoop the rice out
·
add lechera/condensed milk, along with a cinnamon stick, and a little
vanilla; mix
·
enjoy in a cup with ice! YUMMMM!!! :) :)
Anyway, it's been an awesome week and
I'm loving the area,the people and this obra misional! I love you all lots.
Con carino,
Hermana Day
