HELLLLOOOOO FAMILY :D
so first off, my keyboard right now is pretty dumb, and a few keys arent working and i cant do i real smily face or a exclamation point... so it´s keeping me from expressing myself as i would like but oh well... hahaha
This week was great. I know that i always talk about them, but i am just soo happy about my converts right now. i love seeing them grow and progress. They are all doing soo good. Even though we cant visit Lubi and Ramon in San Jose, i am still talking to them, and they always tell me what they are learning in the Book of Mormon, or experiences praying and i just love it. Also Tony and Leodan are happy and progressing with the priesthood. Oh and Axel, remember him? on Sunday he passed the sacrament with the biggest smile i have ever seen. Lets just say i am pretty much the happiest missionary in the whole world.
Also i am loving my time with my companion Hermana Flores. She´s incredible and is helping me soo much. She is so humble, smart and loving. She is teaching me so much, and sometimes in my head i think, man i wish i would have learned this stuff earlier in my mission. But then i remember how God has His hand in everything, and that put people in our path when we are ready for them. I am grateful that He put Hermana Flores in my path for 4 weeks.
We had a cool experience the other day. We were walking around, trying to find new investigators, and lets just say we weren't having too much success, which happens sometimes. There are days when you knock on 3 doors and they all want to listen and want to come to church. There are other days when you knock on a million doors, and talk to a million people, and don't see very much success. So one night we felt kinda lost in the sense of what we should be doing. So we said a pray, asking for direction on what to do and where to go. My comp pointed in a direction and we went to the first house we saw, and i said, we are just going to ask if we can sing a hymn. The lady at first said she was too busy, but we said that it was minutes that she would be giving to the Lord, and nobody else, so then she let us in. We sang Nearer My God to Thee, and the spirit was sooo strong. She was almost in tears after saying how we were angels sent to her in a time that she needed most and a bunch of stuff. i will be honest, i LOVE it when people tell me that i was able to the hands of the Lord for them. That we were able to be angels in her time of need. After she said she wanted us to come back to meet her whole family. Prayer is real, the spirit is real. music is REAL.
Another miracle this week is about Melvin. I don't think i have told you all about Melvin, but he is one of our investigators. He is engaged to a member of the church and so he´s been investigating the church, but about a month ago had a heart attack and was in the hospital for weeks in critical condition, and said that he´s never felt closer to dying, but in that time he was able to read half of the Book of Mormon. Ahh i am out of time so i will finish this story next week
I LOVE YOU ALL :D
Love,
Hermana Peters

| Pipa Fria!!!!! |
 |
While driving in Costa Rica you will pass numerous fruit stands and you will miss out if you don’t pull your car over and partake in these fun fruits. Pipa fría is fresh chilled green coconut. It’s a perfect refreshment for a hot day – it is loaded with vitamins and gives you an instant burst of energy. |
