This has been a wonderful week! and happy easter!!
okay also many have asked me about my spanish... basically I'm a trainwreck! haha but like its really really funny! haha some people just laugh or just say like your american haha but I love this language and it gets better every day:)
okay but first some amazing miracles that really built my faith this week:) So we recently got a cute new investigator, her name is Melodie and she has 2 darling little boys and she is just so genuine! And we taught her once adn then she said that she was moving to this apartment complex, and so we were going to help her move and stuff but when we came back they were never there so they ended up moving just in one day but we were like oh no its okay we have her number! so we called and it was the wrong number.... now usually this would mean that she really didn't want anything to do with us but for some reason I was just like no lets just try to find her becuase she really was so genuine and like our only other new investigator and we just thought okay maybe we wrote the number wrong.. so a few days later we went to this area called san francisco which is huge and full of apartments but we just started at one and just began to contact. anyways long story short we decided to skip a few buildings and go to one in the middle.. well her kids were outside adn they were so excited to see us! and they were like "we live here!" we were shocked that we actually found them and even more shocked that she actually was happy to see us and was hoping we would come! yayayay so now we have an investigator and she is adorable:) anyways I definitely learned a lot about faith, and Chirst will lead us to those who he needs us to teach:)
Also we had a nother milagro with ivette and Nicole(the mom and daughter) so they have been taught most of the lessons but just haven't wanted to commit to baptism, so this week we were planning on talking about it again, and about temples, but when we got there we just felt like we didn't have enough time and it just didn't feel right so we decided to bag our lesson plan and read from the Book of Mormon with them. a few days later we went back to teach the lesson about temples ( I actually wasn't there becuase i was on intercambios but it is still really incredible) anyways so they went back with the lesson we had prepared and before we started Ivette said that the night before she had a dream that her and her daughter were inside of a temple and they were just like shocked becuase we haven't even taught her about temples yet and that is the lesson we had prepared! They taught the lesson and the spirit was so strong, what is even more incredible about this is that her husband passed away in November adn ever since then she has just felt like this big weight on her shoulders so teaching her about the temple really touched her heart and now she is more excited than ever to be baptized. Sometimes we don't know why we say the things we say, or plan to just bag lessons that we had previously planned, but christ does, he knows their hearts adn when the right time for people to hear the gospel is and that is what i love about missionary work. Something I really loved that I was told this week was that many people have to be contacted 6 times before they listen and accept the Gospel. Ivette and Nicole had multiple trajetas in their house but this is the time when christ knew was right for them to hear the Gospel. anyways I just love this gospel and I LOVE Puerto Rico and my little town of Cabo Rojo:)
okay short funny story: so this week I went on intercamios to Mayaguez which is a big city next to me! During one of our lessons we were showing this mom the Prince of Peace video and then after I bore my testimony but she was sitting right in front of the TV and she had turned down the sound but it was this crazy zombie creepy movie so I am bearing my testimony but all i can see is like these creepy zombies I was trying to hard to focus but it was just so funny and just not opportune time for that to come on! hahaha
Okay sorry this is so long but this week we also had an all mission conference yesterday for easter! it was so so fun and peopl bore the most amazing testimoies:) I have seen christs hand in my life everyday sometimes its in the form of other peolple just saying something funny or somebody giving some juice but I know that he is watching over us. Yo se que vive mi Senior.
I love you all so so much!!
con mucho amor, Hermana Zimmerman:)
