My family!
Well goodness! I love you guys! But down to
business.
Yesterday was the funniest day. The funniest. Why?
because of this. During pday, I bought another umbrella (ive have
umbrella problems... long story) but i still had another really big one that
was dying. We were going to take an investigator and his kids to a family
home evening so we took all the umbrellas we could find. We get out of
our house and 5 seconds later the umbrella starts falling apart in front of our
eyes! (the big one) like the rod that holds it all together, the little
parts that are supposed to make it function, the umbrella part... all of it.
out of nowhere! hermana Yepez was laughing SO HARD while i was
watching in shock and horror as this umbrella died a super random death. I
hadnt even touched it. So that happened, we threw away all the little
pieces. Later we were running to another appointment and hna Yepezs
backpack just busted. The strap busted off... so we had to fix that
in a jiffy, and then! her watch flies off a few seconds later and just
breaks right then! It was the funniest things! Satan was trying his
darndest, and in the weirdest ways to slow us down. It was so funny.
SO FUNNY!
But ok, we found a super awesome and pilas family this past
week... so we called them on sunday so we could walk with them to church!
They said sure and we were freaking out we were so excited. So we
went to their house and the mom had a t shirt on... so we asked them if they
were ready to go and they looked all sorts of confused. So we said how we
talked to her husband and he said they were going to all go to church..... but
apparently we had called the wrong family... so hna yepez and i were super
confused too, a) because this family was super pilas and were supposed to go to
church, b) because who did we call and where is this other family that is super
pilas? So that all happened on sunday... and then yesterday i think it was, we
were buying pan dulce to take to the family night and a family showed up behind
us, so we contacted them! And whatta ya know, we have already talked to
that family. AND THEY WERE THE FAMILY WE ACCIDENTALLY CALLED!!! We
had no idea who we had called and were all sorts of sad that there was a family
ready and willing to go to church but we didnt know who or where. Guys,
miracles happen. I dont know how, but Heavenly Father put that family in
our path again. We are going to baptize them. I can just feel it.
We are preparing (the whole mission is) for a perfect week in
november. the 3 to the 10. And we will all reach our goals and
everyone will end with a baptism. Its going to be so cool! We have
so many people that are on the edge and are so ready to be baptized! They
just have little challenges! But heres news, EVERYONE IN THE WORLD HAS
PROBLEMS. That is something I have learned as well.
Something that is way cool is when we find people out of nowhere
that have real questions of their souls that this gospel can answer, I know God
puts them in our path or us in their path because they are awesome. Guys,
we need to ask questions. If you dont ask questions, you dont get anywhere.
If Joseph Smith hadnt asked a question, we wouldnt be where we are.
If we dont ask Heavenly Father things, He cant answer. These people
that actually have questions are the ones that progress and move forward.
If they dont have a question about what church is true, or who has the
authority, they will never find out! They will continue in the path that
is leading them to no where. We can ask questions. We can ask for
confirmations, we can ask for forgiveness. If we dont, we will never get
these things. We cant just be forgivin for all our sins just by leaving
the sins. We have to ask for forgiveness. The relief of forgiveness
is literally right around the corner. Right around the corner of our humility,
and our willingness to accept a change and ask a question.
Ok, thats all i got for right now.... love you guys! Be
safe and happy and I love you!
Love Hermana Evans.
