Weekly Email

August 20, 2018

We saw so many miracles this week! A member of the church that hasn't gone in more than 10 years invited us over to do a barbeque, and 10 of her friends came! We were able to get to know them which was super awesome, and some of them are interested in coming to church and playing sports with us. We also became friends with L­­­­_____, who is a friend of a member of the church here. She came from Venezuela last year and is living alone here in Granada. She really likes coming to English practices and talking about Jesus Christ!

Right now, we're with a ton of Venezuelans in the church and they’re making us Arepas so I guess you could say we're living it up!! A Spanish family also made us Paella which was super good. I feel like all I talk about is food, but that's really the only thing that changes weekly. A really funny thing that happened this week was we were in this tiny town in the middle of nowhere and the sister missionaries showed up and literally every child in the town started following them around and talking to them. When they showed up at the house for a meeting we had, there was this mob of 20 kids haha. They asked us why none of us had blue eyes...

Someone showed me this pretty cool scripture this week that's in the Book of Mormon: "But behold, the Lord hath redeemed my soul from hell; I have beheld his glory, and I am encircled about eternally in the arms of his love" (2 Nephi 1:15). God's hands are always open to receive us as we come unto Him. His atonement can encircle all of us in the arms of His love.
