A nice week

Hola que tal?

Oh goodness so many things happened this week.  I went to Toto to do divisions with the Hermanas there and it was amazing. We were so blessed to see a miracle. Hermana Revelo told me we were going to visit a girl, this girl has been visited my so many missionaries. But her dad has never given her permission to be baptized because he thinks she’s too young and she wanted to go visit her to get her dad’s permission. We planned before we left. We decided to share the story of the prophet Samuel. How he was called as a prophet at such a young age and how God calls humble and willing people to follow him. We got to the house and share the lesson. And I felt the spirit so strong as we read

9 Therefore Eli said unto Samuel, Go, lie down: and it shall be, if he call thee, that thou shalt say, Speak, Lord; for thy servant heareth. So Samuel went and lay down in his place.

 10 And the Lord came, and ^stood, and called as at other times, Samuel, Samuel. Then Samuel answered, Speak; for thy ^servant heareth.

When we finished I asked for the father’s permission. I thinking of all the things I could say if he said no. But he said yes! And for that Saturday! It was amazing! I know that her dad felt the spirit in that lesson and that Heavenly Father truly softened his heart. It wasn’t anything I did, or Hermana Revelo. The prayers of so many people were answered that night.

My comp had a tough day on Friday. It was really sad. We went with Ana who is 11 to confirm her baptismal date. She was all ready. Her mom had given her permission before, but had changed her mind. [When the mom said she shouldn't be baptized], Ana started to cry and covered her face. Which made me want to cry. We told her we weren’t mad and we would always be her friend and love her. It was so obvious she wanted to be baptized but was confused because of the mixed messages from her mom. 

Today when we passed by her store she gave us a little present. It was a little box with a note inside apologizing she said that she wanted to be baptized but couldn’t but hoped that one day she could. I know one day she will be able too. I’m not sure when but I know that she will.

I hope you all have a great week. I know I will. I know Heavenly Father loves us. I know he answers our prayers in his time and in his way.

Love you!
