Flan!

So Big news....We had transfers again but.....nothing changed!  I am so grateful that I get to work with Hermana Salazar again!  She is a great missionary that works so hard and has this pure love for the people!  Hermana Salazar has 10 months in the mission. She is from Tampico and is the only member in her family.  She is 20 years old and a member of the church for 3 years!  She is really dedicated to the work and I love it!  We have had a lot of success in our last transfer!  Our zone leaders called us the Saturday night and told us that we would be staying together.  We were so excited that we could not sleep.  We were laughing about things that had happened and we got a little slap happy.  My companion then asked me, ¨are you sure that you want to spend another transfer with me?¨ HaHAHAHAHAHA I can tell that it is going to be a great transfer!

My week was great!  We had exchanges again and I left my area to work with the SLT´s.  I learned so much in the exchange but the most important is to ask inspired questions. Our investigators are progressing so much!  The are all reading the Book of Mormon and have that true desire to follow Jesus Christ.  I am so excited to see them progress even more!

The funnest thing we did this week was make flan with a member!  It was delicious!  Speaking of which I need you send me a recipe to make cupcakes.  And could you send it so it is in the metric system?  Something simple but delicious!

We had a lot of spiritual experiences this week!  3 in one day!  First we went with an investigator named Leti.  We hadn't seen her for a long time but we decided to pass by her house again.  When we asked her how she had been, she told us that her daughter had forgiven her and was speaking with her again!  It was the happiest moment ever!  We remembered the promise that we had made at the beginning of the lesson that if she continued in this path and obeyed the commandments, her daughter would forgive her.  

Next we were with an investigator that is 17 years old.  Her dad is an alcoholic and is very sick right now.  She told us that she wants to be baptized more than ever and help her family know the truth too!

The last story is when we were about to go home.  We were with an investigator teaching about repentance when all of the sudden it started pouring!  We had to be home in 5 minutes and there was no way that we could leave without all of our books and clothes being soaked.  I started to pray and my companion had noticed that I was praying so she started to pray too.  Without knowing it we had both asked for the rain to stop in 2 minutes so that we could make it home.  Within less than 2 minutes the rain had completely stopped and we were able to get home.

I have a testimony that Heavenly Father fulfills His promises.  It is amazing that He knows exactly what we need in the moment we need it!

I love this Gospel, I love the mission, and I love you!
