Puerto Rico San Juan Mission: The week we went back to Puerto Rico!

Hola todos!

this may be the most jumbly email(not sure if I just made up that word...) ever! hhaaha crazy day today, we had a zone activity in ponce and played soccer and i realized the only talent i have is being able to get my sunburn sunburnt:D

here are some good things that happened this week!

-this week we went back what we like to call (Puerto Rico.1) which is Puerto Rico before Hurricane Maria, so much has changed:) one main thing is that we use cars more because we cover more area! we used to just be a walking mission:D anyways but having said that we have a limited number of miles and we basically ran out for the month 10 days before the mes ended.... haha so we have been walking, walking walking!

-with all the walking we came up with some good new games... on is called "Name that Roadkill!" but its almost too easy because 90% of the time its an iguana!:0

-it was one members birthday and he has never seen snow, but we found this little bottle of "instant snow (just add water)" in the house, and we brought it over and they thought it was the coolest thing ever!

-our house was painted PURPLE!

MILAGRITOS:)

-we were able to find an old contact and she let us come back the next day and we were able to teach her the restoration! she said she had always heard of the book of Mormon but never knew what it was or that it was scripture! she is soo kind!

-we went into a panaderia and only had $1.25 in quarters, but just needed something after having walked awhile, we decided to share a a&w rootbeer but before we could pay we have 2 people offer to buy us pastries! they were super insistant and so so so kind!!

-this just happened like 1 hour ago! we had an old investigator who was so awesome call us and set up an appointment for tomorrow! and an even bigger miracle was that it is at the EXACT TIME A MEMBER TOLD US SHE COULD COME OUT WITH US! and this member is friends with her!

- another milagrito was actually through a reference from the guayanilla elders, its a girl who was interested in the book of Mormon and had a lot of questions about our church! we were really excited but even more excited because the past couple of days we had been praying that we would be able to find someone who had questions about the book of Mormon while contacting, and she was found just not in the way we expected it was really cool to see the different ways our answers come!

overall i think the most important things i learned came through one of my favorite children songs, if the savior stood beside me, if he really did stand right next to me, what would HE do, what would HE say? I know that as a missionary we can do good things everyday, even if we may not be teaching as much as we think we should, or finding as many people as we want, we can still do something so important everyday, and do what he wants us to do! i love my savior and hope to be able do as he would, and say all he would say to his children in Puerto Ricoeveryday for the rest of my mission:)

love you all dearly!

con mucho amor, Hermana Zimmerman:)
