this is sitting in our kitchen (the potatoes with meat sauce was just
the lunch that I had made, not from cosco). BEST SNACK FOOD EVER!!!!
But anyway, that was a highlight.
It has been a pretty good week.
We had an interesting experience. We asked the matrimony couple to come and help us with a visit for a less active woman. And it was such a powerful visit. They knew exactly what to say and how to approach her. We talked about eternal families and testified of Christ while I colored with the 5-year old daughter, to keep her quiet. How do people teach families anyways? But afterwords, we invited her to come to church, and she CAME!! It was a miracle, and even more so because she brought her children and her inactive husband!
The baptism last week was so stellar, but this week Maria´s old woman that she takes care of got sick, and so she couldn´t get confirmed. But, she still has a testimony so that is excellent.
We called all the missionaries in the zone Saturday night telling them that the Lord was so pleased with their work that He was making the Spanish government give us more sleep for one night... it was hilarious. (we just had Spanish daylight savings).
We had another miracle this week.The Bishop has had some trouble with his kids getting back to church thanks to some really poor missionaries a long time ago. And so the Bishop hasn´t let missionaries anywhere near his family for years. It was actually something that President had told us to work on when we got here. And this week, he looked at me and said, "I need to you to call my children and invite them to ward activities. Ustedes casi rayan la perfección." It was such a high compliment from someone I admire a lot. To make it even better - the YM are planning an activity to go and see Star Wars VII
In other news, I made fried chicken, spaghetti meat sauce with potatoes, pancakes, french toast, and rice with marinated chicken this week for my companion to stop the McDonalds that we always were eating. I now somewhat know what it´s like to be a mom and make food by request for people and then have them complain :)
Sorry, now I have to write a report. The church is true! And I know it.
