Hellooooo!
Great week over here in Curacao!!!
A
couple of fun things about the area that we work in: it is by far the
hardest area in all of the ABC islands, and we contact (try to introduce
themselves to strangers) all day every day, which basically means that
we stand out in the HOT HOT sun all day and yell into peoples houses.
How we are not discouraged? I have no idea, but we have been able to
have lots of amazing experiences like you all read about last week. But
it has been an amazing week. biggest thing of all i think is that ALBERT
FINALLY CALLED US THIS MORNING!!!! we were smiling like IDIOTS. it was
so exciting. I looked at the phone and I was like, "who's Albert?" and
looked at Sister Cole, and then we both realized, and Sister Cole was
like, "ANSWER IT." hahahaha it was awesome. He is sooooo
cool!!!!!!!!!!!! God is good, people!
Anyway
so first off i just want to say a happy happy birthday to Deb V.!!! I
love you!!! Thank you for being such an amazing primary teacher and an
incredible member of the Woodbury clan!
So one
of the coolest things that happened this week was with an investigator
named Guido. I honestly haven't been too sure about him up until our
last lesson with him. We pretty much implored him to pray about Joseph
Smith in the last lesson that we had with him and he did it! He knows
he's a prophet! But not only that, his girlfriend doesn't really love
that he is meeting with us. He told us that he explained to her that he
knew Joseph Smith was a prophet!!! WOWWW! so cool. She was telling him
that we use a different bible but he explained to her that we use the
bible, but we also use another book called the Book of Mormon. we hadn't
even taught him about the Book of Mormon yet but somehow he explained
to her perfectly. that was just so cool.
As
well this week, Romeo fed us! It was soooooo good. He is one of the
most firm recent converts I have ever met. He received the Melchizedek
Priesthood yesterday and he is just soooo happy. just got called as a
missionary work leader in the branch which is awesome because he is a
great missionary and is really good with missionary work. he helps us SO
much.
Last piece of huge news, Denitza
and Rodolfo came to church!!!! wow they are awesome. they have been
taught for suchhhh a long time and have only been to church once so that
was a huge step for them. they are so awesome and they are progressing
so much. I love them so much. I love all of these people so much!!!!
other than that not too much has happened around here. we have been
blessed with lots of spiritual experiences while contacting so that has
been amazing. Major tender mercy from the Lord, because we do that A
LOT. I hope you are all doing well and i love you all soooo much!!!!
Please be a missionary this week and share your testimony like Guido
did!! :)
love,
Sister Woodbury
