Week 23

HELLO :)

Dublin is still amazing as ever! We work so hard here all the time!!! This week has been super cold and rainy, but  when it rains in Ireland, God rains blessing upon his missionaries!!! This week was a week full of miracles and love from my Heavenly Father! So I'll try to explain in my poor writing skill how much the Lord has blessed me this week :)

Sister Galvez and I were finding one night this week, and it was almost 9pm, so we were rushing home. We're kinda letting people pass by us, not really paying attention to the world around us. Then I get a prompting  to stop this one guy. Well of course, I'm going to follow the spirit, and I stop him! It turns out that Sister Galvez had that same prompting! So, we get to talking to him, and his name is Carlos. He's from Mexico, and he is studying English here. One thing that he said to us was, "I'm Catholic, but I'm looking to change religions, and become closer to god." HA! Our ears perked up, and we set up a time to meet with him. Our first lesson with him was a flop! But we set up a time to

Our friend Babs

meet with him again! The second lesson was amazing! The spirit was so strong, and we were able to help him to understand how much God loves him. He came to church on Sunday and loved it! He has a baptismal date. So, we're hoping everything goes well, and he will be able to make those covenants with God!!! It was sooo exciting!

The next miracle really built my testimony of the power of the holy ghost!! We were GQing, and we stopped this guy, he only spoke Portuguese, and unfortunately Sister Galvez and I don't speak that language! Well, somehow we set up an appointment with him. We brought a joint teach that could translate for us. The spirit was so strong, and when we asked him to be baptized he acted like we were stupid for asking that question. He was like, well of course I'll be baptized. duhh! (in Portuguese of course). That was a real testimony builder of how the holy ghost really does teach all of us. 

I love this city! There is so much potential here, and we just have to find it! Yesterday we had a girl randomly show up to church wanting to learn more about God and the gospel! It's crazy!!!! The work is crazy! There are so many prepared people here in Dublin! This week was full of hard work, rain, laughs and good times! Sister Galvez is the best, and I am learning so much from her! 

I hope you have such an amazing week!! I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!!!!!
