MILAGROS SIN FIN

BUENAAAAAS! I'm sorry to every one for the lack of emails from these last few weeks. It's been super crazy. But things are incredible, and Elder Rodriguez and I have seen lots of miracles, with more to come.

So, I'll share. Literally the first day of this transfer we had two huge miracles. It was kind of overwhelming how much I felt the Lord's love that day, and how much I've felt it during these weeks. 

First, while we were waiting in Luján to get all of the zone back to their respective areas, a recent convert called us and said that she has a friend who wants a blessing from us, and who's interested in the Church. So we planned that hour to go by, went, and she (Evangelista) and her husband, Indalecio, were there waiting for us with the recent convert. Eva has a pretty bad heart problem, and needs donors and surgery, so that's why she wanted a blessing. We explained a little who we are, and about blessings of health, and then moved forward. She and Indalecio said that they both want to learn more, and that they were already planning on going to church with Sister Acosta on Sunday! That doesn't happen often here, so we were stoked. Turns out their progressing really well! They feel really good, and feel like what they're learning is right, and are going to get baptised at the end of September! It has been a huge testimony of the power that members of the Church have to help others receive the Gospel. The work moves forward so much more quickly when we are friends to others!

Second, on Tuesday we went and played football with some investigators and members, and afterwards, the husband of a member came up to us and said that the Bishop wanted to talk to us. The husband's name is Carlos, and he always comes to pick his wife up from church, and goes to activities, but always (for the last like ten years) says he doesn't want to get baptised. So we went to the Bishop's office, and he goes, "Look, Elders, Carlos wants to get baptised. He's excited and ready; you just need to teach him the discussions and have him fix a date." We were pretty speechless. So we went up to Carlos and said whooooaaa that's great! Congrats! And he said, Yeah, I'm going to get baptised on the ninth of september, at five o'clock. So get every thing ready! He set his own date and every thing.. He's super excited. He told us a few days ago that he had a dream with his father, who told him that he needed to talk to the Elders and get baptised. So he did it! 

What's best is that both of these situations occurred in great part because of huge help from members of the Church. I know, with all of my heart, that this is the Lord's work. I know that He prepares His children through those who have received His great Gospel much more quickly than He prepares others with out any outside help. We are His tools, so we must make sure we're well sharpened! The field is white! I love my Saviour. This is right.
