Hey everyone!

Honestly, we didn't do much this week because my companion and I both got sick. I just had a cold, but she was having problems breathing so we couldn't go out for a couple days. I HATE staying in the house...I was happy to leave again! But I kept myself busy studying and updating the area book(something that nobody wants to do haha) and so it wasnt too bad. 

Things have been going well with teaching the less actives this week! One day when we were teaching Hna. Marroquin had the great idea to help all of the less actives feel important and that we really need them in church...because we do! They are so important to us and we want them to feel that! So that has been our goal :) 

We had an awesome experience with one less active this week. We weren't planning on visiting her, but our appointments fell through so we decided to go over there. I know it was inspired. Her name is Alexandra and she is 16. Her mom doesn't go to church because she works, and she has an older brother but he doesn't go much either. Well we talked to her and she has been discouraged lately because she doesnt like going to church alone and her mom doesnt want to go anymore. Well my comp whipped out an awesome scripture that helped her a lot...we could feel the spirit so strong! I know the Lord loves all of his children and knows their needs :)

I also had another awesome experience yesterday in church. So I wasn't too excited to go to church yesterday because I didn't think we were going to have anyone there. But it was the opposite...there were a ton of new faces! There were a lot of less actives and investigators. I know a lot of them were from the elders...but I just felt so happy and blessed that I wanted to cry! I know the Lord is helping us out in this work!

Have a good week!
