Week 62 - Curacao

Hello!!!!
I really don't have too much include this week.... Buuuuut we received our transfer calls and i am headed back to Bonaire this week to be companions with my MTC companion, Sister Burrup! I am very excited!! My body is definitely not though, as we have to bike soooo much more there. Here we go!!! :)

Sooo this week Rayon and Jaydon got confirmed and that same day Moronai got his baby blessing! It was a very sweet last Sunday here in Curacao! We also had two investigators come to church named Patricio and Ramirez and they were adorable. They are two older gentlemen and they just loved being there. We contacted Patricio and he just kept asking us in a very distraught manner why his church baptized him in black!  It was kinda sad! He is the sweetest man ever and i would trust him with anyone. Seriously. So much so that when we went to teach him he was soooo upset that we couldn't come in without a member brother.  A very sweet and sensitive little man. we love them! He called US to know who would be taking him and his brother to church!  We scrambled and got him there and they loved it! They are so awesome! 

I am now in transfer #11 which is SOOO weird because sisters only have a total of 13! TIME IS FLYING! Everyone should serve a mission!  Seriously!

My spiritual experience this week was actually with this lady that we kind of gave up trying to teach a while ago. Every time we had an appointment with her it fell through and she just didn't seem interested. Some good came out of that though because we started teaching her daughter and grand daughter and they are very special! Well, we stopped by that house and the lady, Deña, let us in and actually sat down with us to have a lesson with her! She ended up thanking us for caring so much about her and her family and for bringing them the word of God. She told us that every time we leave their house they say a prayer for us and our safety and she basically just thanked us for about 5 minutes straight. It was a great experience because we just felt impressed to stop by, we didn't actually have an appointment. The granddaughter was there as well and she told us about how she brought the Restoration tract to school and had her teacher read it to the class. She told us that she loves the message. She said she was playing at school and then just stopped and went inside to go read the pamphlet. That family is really progressing. The Lord truly helps us in this work and He will soften the hearts of those who are ready! 

Have a wonderful week! I love and miss you all!
