Hello Family,

How are you all doing? Sounds like the 24th was fun. To be honest, i forgot.. completely forgot. Until Hermana Fowler said something that night... haha but looks like it was lots of fun scooping poo and eating snow cones :)

So this week was AMAZING. We saw miracle upon miracle upon miracle. Every night as i was praying all i could say was "thank you" a million times to my Heavenly Father, thanking him for all the many blessings He´s blessing me with. So to start off, Jennifer and Cristina both got baptized on Saturday!! As you all know, Jennifer from the very start was a miracle, and kept on showing us more and more miracles. She had her interview on Tuesday and after was just soo happy. She kept telling us how we are the answer to her prayers, and that she feels soo good taking this step in her life. She is really mature for her age and understands everything so well. When we teach her you can just see it in her eyes that she is soaking it all in, wanting to learn everything she can. After her interview we were talking with her and the Elder, and he asked her if she wanted to go on a mission, which we haven't even asked her. Without even thinking she said, "Yes of course." That night we went over to see her and she asked us a bunch of questions of what she needs to do to prepare and everything. it made me soo happy :) so she´s INCREDIBLE:

And Cristina is the best. We finally got to hear her whole story this week. She told us that a few years ago she got hit by a car. From this accident she lost all of her memory, with that losing her ability to read and to write. So she had to start all over again learning how to do things, like a baby, but now can do almost everything on her own. So now she is 84 :) and her memory doesn't have any effect on her being able to learn the gospel. She remembers everything!! and she has such a strong testimony. She told us that she will be going to church until the day she dies.. who knows how long that´ll be, but i feel so blessed to have helped her make this important covenant with our Heavenly Father :) So she is such a testimony that you are never too old to change, never too old to repent, and that there are no excuses to not be going to church, because this 84 year old women that has a hard time walking, comes to church every week :)

Also we had divisions and I went to an area called Pavas this past week which i really liked :) the hermanas have only been there for 3 weeks, because they are opening the area, and well i love looking for new investigators. so we went crazy talking to everyone and helping her to get her area going :)

LOVE YOU ALL SOO MUCH :)

Love, Hermana Peters
