That was probably dangerous... 2/9/2015

This week has been so crazy! But way fun!!!! 

So this week we were just getting into our car at about 9:00 pm in a really scketchy area of Houston, when all of a sudden a guy starts running to our car, I immediately locked the doors and he starts yelling at us he said "HEY I NEED THE DIRECTIONS TO THE CHURCH!!!" so a little confused i decided to open the door to get out and talk to him:) looking back that probably was dangerous but its all good:) He told us that he has been waiting for us to come back to the car for like 3 hours so he could talk to us, he is a member of the church but hasn't gone for like 3 years and now he really wants to start going back! He told us that he was quitting his job so that he could go to church on sunday and with his last pay check he is going to buy a white shirt and a tie so he could come out and teach with us!!!  He is UNREAL!!  He has such a strong testimony and has already been teaching his friends about the gospel:) 

Also this week we were walking in an apt. complex and there were a bunch of workers painting a building and we got a bunch of whistles and "hey mommy" haha and normally we just keep walking but this time I decided to talk to them (they were freaking out that we could speak spanish:) haha and we just started talking about the church:)  It was soooo funny because at the end of the lesson we just had like 10 workers huddled around us talking about the gospel! just picture it! BEST THING EVER! and alot of them are super interested! haha sooo great!!!!

Oh and I got sick this week too! But no worries cause I'm up and running now:)

Alot more happened this week but I have sooo many pictures so I'm gonna cut this short:)

God loves you all so much! And so do I! Have a great week!

"You aren't real missionaries!" 2/2/2015

Im so tired!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh my gosh I am trying to keep my eyes open right now while I'm writing this letter.... but I'll try my best to have it make sense! 

So this week was crazy busy! like we have just had so many people to visit and so many things to do! 

Something really cool that happened was that this lady (that me and hna allen had been trying to visit like two months ago) decided to come to church!! We didn't even invite her! Both of her kids are members and the reason she's not is because she was figuring things out with her man... but now she figured it all out and she's ready to get baptized! yeyah!!!! So stoked! 

Another cool thing that happened was that we ran into this one lady who we tried to teach once but wasnt interested... and i asked her if she had the chance to read in her book of mormon. this was her responce:

"oh yeah, I've read it all!! Its amazing, is there a time you can come by so we can talk about it?" 

HOW COOL IS THAT!!!!! 

haha my favorite conversation of the week is when we were talking to this super drunk guy on the street. he sayed:

"i swear i saw you guys at the strip club the other day!!!!! You aren't real missionaries!" 

HAHAHAHAHAHA I didn't even know how to respond to that!!! 

Anyway I hope you all have a great week and I love you all so much! 

les quiero
