This week has been a blast! We have been seeing so many miracles and its a daily thing. The members are on fire and we are getting so much work done. Some highlights from this week. So Monday we found a family knocking doors. It was the last door on the street and we were about to skip it since everyone else had rejected us. But we decided to knock it and try one last one. The lady opens up, is super nice, and we got to share a quick message with her and her son. She invited us back since her husband was interested in coming to church one Sunday. So we go back for a lesson on Saturday night and we just got to know the and answered some questions. We talked about what a testimony meeting was and that the members fasted. Then on Sunday they showed up early and as we were talking later they told us they decided to fast. We didn't even ask them to or anything. They want to come back next week. Their family was such a  blessing. Then we were able to have another family to church and they are looking to get baptized here pretty soon. People are just coming out of nowhere and finding us. There is a lady named Shawndah, we got a referral from Headquarters which means she ordered a Book of Mormon online. We got to meet her, she talked to missionaries 10 years ago and they gave her a Book of Mormon. She lost it years ago and for some reason felt like she needed to order it again. We were able to start teaching her and all because 10 years ago missionaries talked to her in the park and gave her a Book of Mormon. We asked her what made her order one again and she couldn't explain it. She said she just felt for some reason that she needed to order it. Other things from this week, we have been working really hard with the ward to help them have missionary opportunities. The Lucas family has been praying for missionary opportunities. Then one of their friends came to church with them and she did not seem like she wanted to be there. But we had a lesson with her and she came over to the Lucas house for dinner with us. We had a good lesson and she felt the spirit.So we have a lesson with them tonight and its gonna be so sweet. Plus last week a member gave us $40 so Elder Guzman and I went to Olive Garden for dinner. It was such a good time Haha. We forgot the keys at the booth so I walked in with my bike helmet on and everyone looked at me like I was insane lol. But I cant believe its 2019 already its so crazy. 2018 was super quick. And yeah this email is all over the place but love and miss you all!
