but yeah... this week was yet another incredible week here in congreso... && seriously... i have NO DOUBT that this is the work of the lord... and he literally places people in the path of us missionaries cuz he loves and wants to gather his lost sheep!!! :)

me and my precioso johnny!!!
he seriously is SO incredible!!!

for example... we were walking to an appointment with one of our golden investigators, johnny (i´ll talk about him in just a minute), and a woman sitting in a chair outside her closed resturant questioned us and asked, ¨are you the mormons!?¨ ha ha ha. uh... why yes, YES WE ARE!!! :) oh man. it was seriously so perfect!!!! and long long loooong story short. this family owns a peruivan resturant. and right now it is being shut down by the government for various reasons and this family is really needing some peace and comfort in their life... and... the aunt that lives in peru is a member, and so the mom was talking to the family about how she feels they need to go to the church her sister goes to... && then... we walked by!!!!! uh... this was no coicidence people!!! it was a miracle from our father above!!! this is HIS work!!!! ahhhh!!! i so believe in miracles!!! nuff said. ha ha ha.

but yeah, also... our other investigator johnny.... ahhhh. i seriously love him so much!!! he seriously is so prepared and ready for this gospel!!! he always has questions and wants to learn more and more and more!!!! the other day when we asked him if he had a friend he coud invite to the next lesson, it was so cute!!!! he told us, i´m going to talk to everyone about this church and invite everyone too!!! then we made a joke about how all of his friends are eventually gonna be mormon, and so dead faced serious he looks at us and says, ¨obviously, because the church needs to grow. and why does it grow!? because ITS SOMTHING REAL!!¨ ahhhh... seriously, my eyes began to fill with tears in this moment. johnny feels the truth!!! he can see the difference in his life with us teaching him day by day... this is our grand message family!!! the gospel is real, living and growing!!! and i´m so incredibly grateful to have this opportunity to be a missionary and see the difference this grand message can make in peoples lives!!!! ahhhhh!!!! we have a loving heavenly father that sent his son to die for us so that we can return to live with him again!!!! ahhhhh!!!!  the church is SO true!!! there are no if´s, and´s, or but´s about it!!!!!! :)
