We
have even more sister companionships than the kast transfer, we´ve got 3
companionships now, wich doesn´t sound like a lot but it´s a lot for one zone
her in this mission. AND ALL OF THEM ARE TRAINING. ALL OF THEM. ALL THE SISTER
WHO ARE TRAINING IN THE MISSION RIGHT NOW ARE IN THIS ZONE AND UNDER OUR CARE
SO THAT´S ANOTHER THING. And with opening the area, planning the
capacitaciones, and also trainign Hermana Lewis in how to be Hermana
Capacitadora, and then trying to keep daily contact with my future memebers and
the companionships in my care, it´s been interesting, and I feel like I have
never had so many thigns to do and such little time to do them all... it´s been
a lot. We´re finally gong to start doing intercambios this next week with th
sisters, but we´re going to have to double them up in the weeks, because we
basically started in thsi area from scratch, ther was like 5 refernces and like
3 investigadores when we got here who didn't want anything to do with us after
transfers, and so we felt it was necesaryt o get a foothold in this area and at
least get a start so we´re not just purely contacting hte entire day before
doing to exchanges and it´s going to be a heck of transfer basically and its
goign by so fast, its already week 2 and it´s so freakign weird.
I have never seen so many miracles
in two weeks. Literally it´s been miracle after miralce after miracle. We´re
teachign people who have flagged us down on the street and begged us to visit
them. And this area, which was aupposedly "hard to work with the
memebers" we maanged to teach ten enw people this week who are meber
references. Obviosuly, it takes more than that to really work with the members
and we´re still working on getting to be a more closeknit, shoulder to shoulder
thing. Because a lot fo memebers think that missionary work is only for the
missionaries, but it´s so not. Nad hten there are those who think that´s it´s
"working in the Lord´s Vineyard" to give food and rides to the
missionaries, and it´s more than that, or to give them refernces, but its more
than that, or to accompany them on visits, but it´s yet even more than that.
It´s establish goals for yourself, maybe on a yearly and monthly basis about
how much you want to share the gospel and then go out and do it, and then give
names and directions to the missionaries and tell them, "I am free at this
hour and I will take you and you´re goign to teach, I'll hekp where I can, and
I'll committ them at the end and then be there every step of the way helping
them keep their comittments and cheering tem on." And that´s when absolute
MAGIC happens and the baptism fonts fill up.
ANyway,
point is, we´ve seen so many miracles in these weeks. MIRACLES: and it´s been
super awesome, and I can´t say that all I´m tryign to do is kep my head above
wter but that´s ot true because I´m not trying to do that, I´m trying to trust
in the Lord enough to be able to walk on the water.
Love
you,
