Week 7/8
Friends! Sorry I couldn't write a post last week but this weeks post will include both weeks. Last Saturday was also my two month mark on my mission! It hardly seams like it. I feel like time is going by so fast, but I also feel like I have been doing this forever.
We have had some amazing miracles. We have set three new dates since last I wrote! Humberto, my 17 year old friend and investigator, is finally getting baptized. He had been ready for a long time but he was
working a job that wouldn't let him come to church on Sundays. Missionaries have been working with him for a long time hoping that a miracle would happen and it finally did! Humberto got a new job where he doesn't ever have to work Sundays. His date for baptism is May 10th. We are also talked to Humberto about serving a mission. He loves missionary work and wants to serve. Now he finally can!
We have also had some really cool lessons with an investigator named Dee. I told y'all about him a could of weeks ago. He has diabetes and has had some issues with his babymama. We'll last week he called us
bright and early in the morning. He asked if we could meet up by the river front. He hadn't slept the night before and wanted to talk to us. We met up with him in a beautiful place where we could sit next to the river. It was a beautiful day. He told us that he was feeling down and that the night before he had bought of us and had immediately called us because he knew that he would be able to make him feel better. We talked about some pretty cool things he had questions about and shared with him a Book of Mormon. Right before ending he asked us if he would bring his friends to meet us the following Saturday in the same place. On Saturday we met his cousin and his friend and we taught them the restoration. They are a couple of great guys!
My East Sunday was amazing! For sure the best Easter I have ever had. I actually got to hunt for Easter eggs! What? Supper cool, I had a blast! This week was also transfers week and like I said last week we all got to go and hear the inspirational talker whose name was Dan Clark. He was supper cool! Well anyways pretty much everything changed this transfer. Sister Stucki left and Sister Allphin came it. Sister Allphin is supper sweet though, I love her so much already. And then our Zone leader Elder Loveless also left and in came Elder Bishop who is fantastic! It has been fun getting to know these new missionaries!
The Spanish work is blooming just like the flowers here in Paducah, Kentucky! Yesterday evening we finally found where all the Hispanics were hiding! We have our work cut out for us so wish me luck!
