Hello everyone!!
This week was pretty good. Elder Solis was sick for a couple days but it was alright in the end. We had Zone Conference on Friday which was super fun!! The main focus was on receiving personal revelation. President asked us three questions; How are we able to receive revelation?, What can the Holy Ghost do for us?, and How do we disinvite the Holy Ghost? One thing that really stuck out to me was when we read the chapter of "Music in Our Personal Lives" in the preface of the hymn book. The sentence that stood out to me was "They can fill our souls with heavenly thoughts and bring us a spirit of peace."
On Saturday we had a service opportunity at Highland High School! It was SO much fun. There were different things that you could do. A bunch of other missionaries and I painted the wrestling room! It was a ton of fun, and we had pizza afterwards!!
Then that same day there was an activity for the young women called "Nuestras Raices" (Our Roots) and they had people come and represent their countries by bringing their native foods! The food was REALLY good. It was a fundraiser, so you had to pay for tickets, and the different food cost different amounts of tickets, it was a little pricey but loads of people came!!
Alfajores!!
We have two awesome investigators right now. Both are from Sonora, Mexico. One is super awesome and we hope she will want to be baptized. She has met with missionaries before but wasn't keeping commitments. When we knocked on her door she told us that just the other day she found her Book of Mormon when she was cleaning her house!! Sounds like a sign to me ;)
Love you all!
Matthew 6:19-21 - Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
