Hola Familia!
Well this week was something else! It has actually been pretty stressful because well my companion doesnt know anything about the area, or any of the people so I have had to do a lot of work on my own. But she is trying hard to learn the people to be able to help! But this week we were able to find some really good new investigators! We found Nedy, and she is Golden!! She was sitting outside of her house one night and we contacted her and she was really interested! We said a prayer with her and set up another appointment. We had our appointment with her yesterday and as we were explaining the book of mormon she told us that she has one! Which here that is a miracle, because EVERYONE is catholic!! But she really does have one she has the Book of Mormon with D&C and the pearl of great price and she reads it!!! It was such a great experience! She told us its hard for her to understand but she always feels at peace when she reads it and she wants to understand it! She also has a hymn book and other books from the church that her dad had given to her a couple years ago! She really is so great and I am so glad we found her! She is going through some rough things right now and said that before we contacted her she was just praying to find the answer and then we showed up! So it was overall a great experience! That was the highlight for the week! And we will be teaching her again tomorrow (: The hard part of the week was we had to stop teaching one of our investigators :( She is a 14 year old who wants nothing but to understand the gospel and her parents wont let her recieve the lessons but she asked if she can still read the book of mormon even if she isnt getting the lessons and of course we told her yes! I hope that her time to recieve the fullness of the Gospel is soon! She will be a great member of the church one day! But overall things are progressing here and we have a good week ahead of us! I am so glad to hear everyone back home is well! I love you guys so much!
Love always,
Hermana Searle
