OK so this week was SO SO GOOD! and naturally I don't remember like any of it.
My companions are the greatest humans ever and we have so much fun together but also we teach together with so much unity and our lessons are so powerful and we're getting so much trust with the members of our little branch here and it's so exciting to see! We feel so much love and support from our branch members and we're seeing lots of good things starting to happen!
There was so much snow this week. So much snow. But it's been melting pretty quickly still. BUT this week is supposed to be in the 20s for the high like all week and so we'll see how many inches we get! But Santa Fe is go GORGEOUS when it snows. Snowy desert is such an underrated beauty! And the sunsets here are crazy beautiful as well.
And our investigator, Elder, is doing so well! He is soaking everything up, he was able to see a baptism last Wednesday, and he came to church yesterday! The branch members already love him and they announced his baptism yesterday during church and he was so excited about it! He is such a miracle! I have never even heard of a more prepared investigator!
There are just so many people that are suddenly ready and prepared for the gospel. We've been talking about how Heavenly Father has been preparing this area for so long and how blessed the three of us feel to be here right now, and that He loves us and trusts us enough to allow us to be the missionaries here right now to see all of these miracles. This area is so elect and prepared and we've talked to families that missionaries, for whatever reason, haven't been able to teach for months and years, and our very first time trying to visit them we are able to start teaching them and their children!
We're so excited to continue to teach these amazing children of God this week and to see their progression. This is such an amazing and beautiful area, for so many reasons! Being a missionary is the absolute greatest thing. I have never been more tired, or more happy.
There's a really beautiful talk from this last General Conference that I invite all of you to read! It talks about one of my favorite principles to teach, that our Heavenly Father loves each and every one of so infinitely and that He doesn't expect us to be perfect; He olny expects us to try our hardest.
