Well - It's transfer day!! And Guess what?! I moved again - but the shocker is that I moved BACK to my first area!!! What?! I'm pretty stinking excited about it because my companion is my "sister," the other sister who was trained by my trainer! It is awesome!! And I'm roommates with some pretty cool sisters as well! Oh - and there are now 5 FULL PROSELYTING areas in the DC North Mission for Sisters! WHAT?! and the only full pros Spanish area is where I just came from. So I have a REALLY REALLY happen old companion now! She absolutely was stoked for FULL Pros! I'm stoked cause I get to be in the VC everyday and I love the VC!! Plus...We're taking on BIKES! We have one car between two companionships,so I'm assuming that we will have bikes more because we live in the area around the VC and our apartment. It's crazy! And amazing! I love it! And now I can run again in the morning! Haha- side bonus! And see my recent convert from my first transfer - remember him...he was baptized on a Wednesday at 4pm :P super random and awesome!
Well moving on :D We had a pretty good last week in GBURG. I had a feeling i was leaving but wasn't sure til monday night. We have some good potentials and some great investigators! My favorite story of the week is Aurelia! She is a newer investigator but she was meeting with the missionaries about 25 years ago in her country...i can never remember what i tell you all so sorry if i right it twice. Well. i had a panic attack this Sunday morning because the member that was going to pick her up was in a meeting until 8.55am and Sacrament Mtg starts at 9am...well, another member saved us and picked her up! And after all of church she said she loved it and felt so at peace! Then we taught her about the beginning of the plan of Salvation and how Adam and Eve made the choice so we could all live...and she said, "that is what really impressed me about church today. the teacher said that Eve was a great women...and I have been to many different churches and they all speak poorly about Eve and that she really sinned first and we should be mad at her, but that never made sense to me." Well that was amazing! And we invited her to be baptized...she said YES!! She has NEVER been baptized but she loves how she feels and knows this is the right way, she just needs a little time to continue to learn with us :D So good! She is just amazing and I'm amazed at what little things spark our testimonies! It is a certain scripture or a certain teaching...many different things. Super crazy!
And my VC miracle. I was sitting on the phones the other night and a man called in and asked if we prayed for people? I said that of course we do and started to talk to him a bit to see what he wanted prayers for. He said help figuring out why he keeps coming back to the gospel? He knows he needs to be baptized but he is not sure why....So amazing! Of course. and then I started to talk to him a little more to see if there was anything else I could do and he said, "yes, could you tell me about Joseph Smith again." I told him the first vision but told him to close his eyes and picture that he could receive an answer...."I saw a pillar of light exactly over my heard, above the brightness of the sun, which descended gradually until it fell upon me. When the light rested upon me I saw two personages, whose brightness and glory defy ALL description, standing above me in the air. One of them spake unto me, calling me by name and said, pointing to the other - This is My Beloved Son. Hear Him!" Super powerful! He said he was going to pray right then. I know he will receive his answer because he wants to. He will know that this church is true!!
I love you all! I know that this church is true. And my time is really up! But I will talk to you next week! And please forgive me for lack of letters...I've been crazy busy and I will get better - I promise!!
Con mucho amor!
