My Vacation to Orlando

This week went by so crazy fast! Oh my goodness.

Monday after P-day we had family home evening with Patricia and her family. It was amazing! We taught the restoration and we were able to get her husband to bear his testimony about parts of the restoration.  It was amazing! It was so cool to see his testimony reignite and shine forth. Patricia started crying as we talked about eternal families. It seriously was amazing. We haven't been able to see them since or at all this week because she's been so sick and she's having her baby this week. We text her everyday and all is still good. :) she's excited for her to be healthy so we can come and visit.

I went on exchanges with the STLs Wednesday night to Thursday night. I went to their area which was a relief because I was scared to lead the Spanish area by myself. However as we were walking we contacted this Spanish lady and without even thinking I slipped into Spanish mode and was able to talk to her and get her information. I was so proud of my self and so grateful for the power of the gift of tongues!!!!

Friday we got a call from this guy who was visiting from Utah. He asked if we could bring him a Spanish Book of Mormon so he could give it to his driver. So we got to go to a hotel in downtown Orlando which was way fun!!!!! This same guy gave us  a total of 3 referrals. Even on vacation he was doing missionary work. :) Mario came to church on Sunday as did one of our less active families!!! I was so happy. We haven't been able to meet with Ali (guy from the bridge) because he got called away on a business trip but we are meeting with him Wednesday. :) It was a pretty good week. 

I can't believe I am almost done with my first transfer in the field. Time is flying!!!! I want to express to you guys how important members are to missionary work. As missionaries it is impossible to do anything without the members help so I want to beg you to please ask your missionaries what you can do to help and then do it! Go with them to lessons, help them fellowship investigators, give them rides, or just anything! Next to the lord, members are our biggest help.

The church is true y'all. I know it. The Book of Mormon is a living testimony of Jesus Christ and I am so grateful for he power and influence it is has in my life.

I love you all!!!!

Pday sightseeing at the Artegon Mall.  We literally got
100 free Ron John Surf shop stickers

Our view from an apartment complex
we were at the other night.

Sister Brady was giving haircuts and bleaching
hair, so naturally Elder Coley wanted in ha ha.

someone at a hotel.

Need I say more?

It was in the high 30's but we were freezing while
studying so this is what happened.
