Birthday Bash!

Hey Friends and Family!

Wow I cannot believe it's been another week! Time just flies when you are serving the Lord.

March 14: For p-day we went down to Boca to party with the Boca Raton and Boca Rio sisters and we had Brazilian Stroganoff and man it was delicious. It was also fun to hang out with the sisters in my district. 


March 15: Today we had a mission conference and got to see a lot of the missionaries I know. Also it was Sister King's birthday (my trainer) and it was just so much fun to get together and learn more about how we can be effective missionaries and how we can be safe missionaries. Later this evening we had a lesson with Gloribel (who I've been on and off again teaching since I got to Florida) and we talked about the Restoration and set her with a baptismal date for March 31st and she is finally ready to learn and make changes in her life.

March 16: Today we went on campus and tried talking to everyone we could see and it was awesome we actually got to talk to some people about the gospel. We then had two lessons today one with Tesh, who is a referral from Shawn our other investigator, and Gloribel. I truly do love teaching and wish I could do it more, but first you have to find the people to teach.

March 17: Today we went knocking down in Boca Raton but we accidentally put the wrong address in and ended up in Deerfield. It was really funny especially since we were in the nice part of Deerfield and it was a lot different than when we went to Deerfield 2 months ago. We ended up finding where we needed to be and I definitely saved that location in the GPS to avoid further confusion.

March 18: Today was my companion's birthday! We started off the day with a surprise birthday party and good thing I'm stubborn or else we would have gone out to eat for lunch and she would have missed the whole party. For dinner the Deforests fed us for her birthday. Sister Deforest is like my mission mom, she really takes care of us and it is always a fun time when we go over to her house. 


March 19: Today we saw Miguel and the good news is he is coming to church tomorrow! We finally got it cleared with his house arrest officer so that he can come and man he is so excited. Also thank God for court orders to go to church because that means he's coming the next few weeks (also so he can have some social life). But really Miguel is so cool and it has been amazing to see how he has grown since I first met him, he is starting his mission papers as well so that will be cool.

March 20: Today at church only Gloribel came investigator wise, but we had a lot of less actives that we are working with come which is amazing. I truly love this branch and loved to see how much they have grown and matured and how much love they have for one another, they truly are a family.

Well love you all, have a great week!
