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.
