I'm staying in Caldas Novas!
Week 29—Feb.8,
2016
I’m staying here in CALDAS
NOVAS!!!! Woot woot!(: I’m with Sister
Kendell and the Elders here in our district for another transfer!! I’m very happy and excited! Transfers are hard. You finally get used to your companion and
love them. You fall in love with the members and the ward. You get to know the area better...and then all
the sudden someone tells you to pack up and go somewhere else....hehe(; I’m happy I’m here for another transfer!!(:
Okay, so this week I have a little
problem on my arm...don’t worry it is getting better...but sweet members Cosme
and Damian are super worried and like to look at my arm haha. When we visited Cosme in his house and he was
saying the closing prayer...oh my word, it was the cutest thing ever!! Cosme said, “please bless Sister Smith´s arm
that it will get better, that she will be healthy and that all will be well
because I love her and am so grateful for her.”
Then he said “Father, how is my bunny doing up there?” (Cosme’s rabbit
died a couple weeks ago) “you taking good care of her?” Oh my word! I was smiling during the entire prayer! I wanted to give that cute kiddo a big hug!
haha(: But I can’t hehe! It was literally the sweetest thing. I was holding back tears. Cosmes prayers are so sincere.
So yesterday Sister Kendell and I didn’t
have 1 investigator in sacrament meeting.
It was a little disappointing. But
when we got to church, the chapel was FILLED!
It’s never filled, like there aren’t enough members attending each week
to have a chapel. So we meet in this
house, with a swimming pool as the fount, it’s super humble and special. But anyway, I was so excited that so many
people were there! The Elders had 7
investigators and instead of being jealous, I was super happy for them! I bore my testimony and the spirit was so
strong! I was extremely emotional and was
blessed with the gift of tongues. It is
real! Okay, first of all, it’s hard to
get in front of people and share your testimony, and second, try it in a
different language. You need the spirit
with you and you have to have lots of faith!
It was special! These moments are
when I grow the most!!
