I got a call on Saturday night... I'm getting two new companions! Well one I was already companions with, Hermana Ramirez and Hermana Lopez! It's going to be interesting to be in a trio again! It will be even weirder tomorrow because we are going to be four because Hermana Moreno doesn't go to her new area until Wednesday!
Well this week was pretty good! Some investigators that we thought were avoiding us, really weren't avoiding us, they were just super busy for a week, and they are super excited to learn more and get baptized! Also some kids we are teaching, the daughter of a member that doesn't go anymore and her cousins, are progressing too! Two went to a piano class at the church and loved it! While we were taking them back to their house, I just felt so content. I knew in that moment that my companion and I were offering them a life that was so much better, because it's a life centered in the gospel and founded on Christ. I felt in that moment the importance of what I'm doing here, the importance of what every missionary is doing. I'm not doing this because my family pressured me to go. I'm not doing this because I wanted to go on vacation from school. I'm doing this to help people know Christ better and know how to return to live with our Heavenly Father again. I'm doing this to help my brothers and sisters have a better life, a life built on Christ and according to His gospel. I know I'm not here by mistake. I know that it is God's will, and I know it's where I need to be.
I love y'all!
