Hello from Paradise!

This week was another week of fun! Sister A** and I are working hard and meeting great people every day. The ward is still amazing. We are working with them and getting into their homes. We are their cheerleaders basically, just supporting them and encouraging them in the missionary work they are already doing and have the goals to do. 

When we aren't with members, we are out visiting Potentials, Formers, and Less-actives. Just regular stuff we do every day. We've seen some cool miracles with all of them though.

Thursday was a day full of answered prayers. We had prayed to see those we came in contact with the way Heavenly Father sees them. We also prayed to be able to discern what part of the gospel they need to hear most in this part of their lives. AND we prayed to be able to have the courage and confidence to open our mouths. (We want to talk to people and we know we have the promise that He will fill our mouths with words, but sometimes it's hard. Especially when you never used to start conversations haha!) EVERYONE we saw that day was an answer to our prayers. We didn't think twice about talking to them, we loved everyone we met, and it was so clear to us what part of the gospel they needed in their life. We didn't even have to search for it. Everyone opened up to us and told us things they probably wouldn't normally say in a conversation. It was so cool to experience. Heavenly Father answers prayers! We have a few return appointments with these people this week!

We had our last interview with President and Sister Felix this week. It's so sad to think that they are leaving in about 2 weeks. I thought it was going to be forever until they had to go home, but these last 4 months have flown by. It's like I blinked and they are leaving:( They are truly amazing and love the gospel and the Savior. I am so lucky that I was able to have 4 months with them. Their Homecoming is July 9 at 9:00am.

Well, I hope you all have a great week! Don't do anything stupid, but don't be boring!:)

xoxo,
Sister G
