P-Day Pedicures!
Okay I
seriously love you all so much, but I don't have enough energy to email today!
I do want to share a cool miracle that happened though! I'm not going to lie to
you, I had a rough week! But, we still rocked it. Our district leader gave like
the best compliment to us this morning. He said, "Your area is like a
model to for all other areas." That made me feel so good! But I know that
it's all Heavenly Father just blessing us so much. The Zone Leaders also asked
us this week how we have had such a great transfer. We had a few reasons, but
we came down to basically, Never Give Up. We didn't give up and we never took
breaks! We have zone conference this week and they might ask us to share
something at it. Yikes. Anyway, time for my miracle!
On Friday night at
our dinner appointment I didn't lock my bike. Usually we are pretty safe to
not, but my lock disappeared a while ago. So, when we got done with dinner at
the Gomez's and headed to our next appointment, it was gone. We all searched
around for a bit. Brother Gomez drove around looking for it, and Sister Gomez
took us to our appointment. Their 6 and 4 year old kids got in the car and told
me they said a prayer that we would be able to find my bike. I was so touched!
At our next lesson I could barely think, let alone teach! Well in short,
Brother Gomez found a kid riding my bike at a park, put it in his trunk, and
took it to our apartment. I told the kids that it was thanks to their prayer
and faith. I was so grateful for that family and they Heavenly Father blessed
us with that miracle! I would have died without my bike! And I learned a couple
good lessons! I will always lock my bike from now on, and I need it have faith
more like a little kid!
Another cool
thing, Ana and Felipe got baptized, and it was beautiful of course. I know they
are going to be great members. We started teaching Edwin, Yvette's neighbor,
and he is super cool. He has come to church twice already. Yvette, also invited
her sister, Iliana, to church and the baptism. She loved it and wants to start
the lessons again! We taught her at the first if you remember. Another family
we are teaching came to church on Sunday, and they almost didn't, so that was
awesome. The Amone family didn't come :( So we were sad. Lauren didn't either,
but she is doing pretty well! We have been teaching her on Facebook and that
has been working pretty well.
Ipad training
This week we get to go to the
temple and have zone conference, so it should be exciting. I need it! It has
been 10 months since I've been to the temple! Then next week is transfers. So
this weekend we should be finding out if I am leaving! We have been so busy,
which is so good. But I was reminded of President Uchtdorf's talk from October
2012 yesterday, which I needed! He talked about how he couldn't imagine Christ
hustling and bustling around trying to get to meetings and stuff, so we don't
need to be like that either! That has totally been me. I have always been known
to put too much on my plate and stress out! Some things never change ha. Well,
talk to you next week!
Love, Sister Lowry
