SOO Amial ROCKS!! Really hot because there is no ocean breeze but that's fine because I've got a Hawaiian comp. She brings the ocean here ;)
We really don't have any investigators so this past week, we were just trying to find some people with real potential. We found this one lady, Maria (pois). A looong time ago, the elders would go to her house and teach her and her kids but I guess nothing came of it. She let us teach her the other day and we invited her to be baptized. She said she wasn't sure but we invited her to pray about it. We passed by the next day and she said she prayed and felt a "serene" feeling. We invited her to be baptized again and she said she still wasn't sure (AHHH). But she's willing to learn more so we're really hoping that she can start recognizing the Spirit more and more as she reads the Book of Mormon!!
Another lady we taught, Maria Rosa.. So she's like super old but super cute and we were teaching her about how we have a prophet today and 12 apostles and then she randomly blurts out, "What are their names??" Then embarrassingly enough, we couldn't remember the names of two of them.. So that was the worst.. Definitely won't ever happen again!!
ALSO there's this recent convert, Vera, here that knew Sister Pennock. So when I came to visit Amial 2 months ago on a division, I got to meet Vera. So when I got here, we stopped at her house to see if she wanted to work with us and when she opened the door, she screamed because she had been praying for me to come here again. SO Vera and I are best buds now :)
ALSO HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO CONNOR and also PRESIDENT MONSON!! I'm soo grateful for my family and for a prophet in these days. Our families are so blessed as we follow the prophet. Here's the latest thing the our prophet has advised us to do so that we're protected and happy in this world!
