13 Months!

Wow well this week was just one giant huge miracle De verdad. (For Real) This week I defiantly gained a testimony of sacrifice and that It is ok to suffer a little something for the Lord. We had had a really hard time finding people and just felt that no one was progressing so we decided to do a little fast on our own. It started out as little bit of a hard week, I got pretty sick but knowing little prideful Hermana Peterson I refused to stay inside our apartment, I felt really bad one morning but we did have a visit so we decided that we needed to go to the visit... we had an amazing lesson with her and she accepted a date to be baptized!!!!!!! Miracles!!!!!! Then as we were leaving there was a huge family from Peru just all sitting at the park and me and my companion decided to contact them because "el Reino de Dios o Nada" (The Kingdom of God or Nothing) right? So we began talking to them and they were very interested, we set a plan that we would come back and teach them the next day when they had more time... and that next day they were all there, just waiting for us. We taught the entire family about the restoration and they all accepted dates to be baptized!!!!!!!!💕Boom another miracle! Then last night our plans fired and we had nothing to do so we decided to pass by a girl who had fired on us the week before and she was there and let us in!!! She is here on vacation for a couple months and is staying with her cousins, we taught her the restoration and she LOVED IT!!! She was so into it and just had so many amazing questions and we invited her to pray to know if it was true and she said of course she would, she then as well accepted a date to be baptized and is so excited to come to church with us!!! Wowwww! We left that lesson just jumping and screaming!!!! God blessed us with so many miracles. We have 7 people preparing to be baptized. I know that numbers are not important but this is something that just doesn't happen very often that God put in our way 7 amazing children of his who are prepared in one week Wow!!!! ...there's more..... This young man contacted us and came to support a baptism and then just showed up at church on Sunday!!!! Also a member brought a friend to church that she wants us to teach!!! And a less active member that is from South America just decided to come to church on Sunday for the first time in 13 years and brought her son who isn't a member and now the elders are teaching them.....The Lord has literally showered blessing on blessing on us this week!!! I have learned a lesson and gained a testimony that when we go out of our way to make even the smallest of sacrifice for the Lord (like simply fasting or doing something when we don't feel like we can) he will multiply 100X our small and simple sacrifices into rich blessings. The Lord loves us and wants to bless us. We just have to show that we are willing to work a little as well! The Lord is so loving, well anyways there is a giant list of miracles that happened in a little town in Spain this week.  Love you all and are praying for you all always! Sacrifice something small for the Lord this week (maybe time on your phone to read the scriptures or service) and I promise you you will see big blessing from it!
