Just living the Sueno! (Dream)

The weather has been cooling down a ton so that's a huge blessing. Also speaking of blessings this week, I saw one of the craziest miracles of my mission it was amazing! OK, so y'all already know Bonaventure; he's the best, he wanted to be baptized but always was super hesitant about it but he kept telling us he was waiting for his answer but the thing is he was waiting for a big answer for something really crazy to happen, so we shared a video with him from Elder Ballard about receiving answers and told him that a lot of times our answers don't come just like that and with big experiences but more times than not we get our answers little by little. He had been reading and praying every single day, we even did a kneeling prayer with him and he asked God in that moment if it was true and so right.  When we left that cita (appointment) my amazing companion turned to me and said "we're going to fast!" And our ward mission leader had helped us in that cita and so he decided he was going to fast with us so that Bonaventure could receive an answer. So we started fasting that night and we fasted all day long that next day until 8 o'clock that night. That next day we went to teach Bonaventure and we were teaching him the gospel of Jesus Christ and when we started talking about baptism I asked him how he sincerely felt about his baptism. And he said..."Well I had a dream"... he told us that in his dream he was in his country in Africa and he was with all of his friends. And one of his friends happened to be Joseph Smith, then he asked Joseph Smith if all of the things we were teaching him about the Book of Mormon and everything was true. Joseph Smith told him yes that it was true and Bonaventure told us that he said in his dream that he also said that he knew it was true. He said he woke up and he just felt so good. We just started freaking out and telling him, "that's your answer!" He got super happy and told us that he wants to be baptized this Saturday!! WOW WE ARE STILL ON CLOUD 9!!!! It was literally a huge answer to our prayer and our fast! FRIENDS, FASTING WORKS!!!!!!! I have just been proved time and time again on the mission that fast works, that it brings miracles and that God really does hear our prayers and he is aware of every single one of his children. It amazes me the things God provides to his children who want to follow him! Wow God loves his son Bonaventure! And so ya we are working with him a lot this week because we have a ton to teach him and on top of all of that he speaks Spanish pretty well but his first language is French so that's been super interesting but somehow its working😂 crazy miracles, God exists, this is his work. But besides that this week has been bomb, my companion is doing amazing and is just a boss in her training, and her Spanish is coming along so so well! Although the other day we contacted someone and instead of saying "we are going to call you" she said "vamos a tocarle... "(we are going to touch you) I literally died laughing in the middle of the contact. She's great, love her. But that's about it we are just out here eating way too much food and living our best lives, the mission is amazing, and it is all because God is directing this work. Thank you all for all of your love and support, have a killer week! Love, Hermana Peterson  3 John 1:4  4 I have no greater joy than to hear that my children walk in truth. Hermana Bangerter showed me this scripture the other day and I absolutely loved it because that is the ultimate goal, I love love the mission but the biggest blessing I can think of is to one day raise my family and kids in the Gospel.
