going to miss her...

Well... I thought I would make this super cool and make an
educated line about the Emperial Cruise that talks about the pre-events to
world war two... BUT I cant remember how to spell emperial. imperio...
yeah....
BUT this is my last day in my area of Imperio, I have transfers
once again tomorrow to who knows where, but it was a fun "cruise" for
3 weeks to open an area in the ghetto haha...
This week I have learned more and felt more miracles than I could
ever explain. With the passing of my grandpa I have learned a lot more about
the spirit as the comforter, the blessing of the atonement, and the power of
service. There were so many miracles this week.
We found a grandma named Sirvella helping her weed and she was SO
prepared. She accepted the plan of salvation and the restoration so quickly
because recently her husband passed away. I can't believe we just found her
last week. The Lord works in mysterious ways, but always has a plan.
Also there is a joven (teenager) named Liliana who is from the
selva (jungle) and had some CRAZY ideas about the plan of salvation... but
helping her understand the love her Heavenly Father has was so incredible and
literally you could see the change and the hope it gave her. I love this work
so much.
Also we have another investigator who is partially paralyzed and
fell in the morning when we came to visit and was in a lot of pain. He asked
for a blessing and it was an incredible experience. So much peace that the
power of God brings.
Also... my comp wanted to cut my hair because I wanted some layers
and she CHOPPED it... so I'm back to short lion hair haha... I just couldn't be
mad though, moments like this will never come back!
Highlight was we had to straight up book it for two blocks to get
away from a drunk who was doing an incredibly fast zombie shuffle... super
fun
And our pensionista went to Lima for the weekend and we told
her... just give us fruit! So like a grandma she gave us a straight up bucket
of fruit and we have been gorging ourselves on all sorts of tropical fruits.
Love it.
If more than anything I learned that we can't pit our will against
the Lords. Just need to be humble enough to accept it without complaining. He
has such an intricate plan for each and everyone of us, I have felt that so
much this week. He is just preparing us to become amazing so we can return to
His presence. Felt so much of His love and plan for my life and for each of His
children this week.
Love you all. THANK YOU for your letters and encouragement. It
just gets better and better!
