Which is actually quite nice because we are working with so many amazing people. On Sunday we had 5 investigators at Church!! I wanted to just freak out!! Because if you remember the whole month of September was a little on the rougher side we hardly had anyone at church and no progressing investigators. Amazing things are starting to happen.
First of all Danielle and her boys came to church!! The boys are set to be baptized at the end of the month. I love them so much. Then we had gloria who came. Another lady who I love. The only thing is with gloria she is really hard to see during the week because she is so busy. Then we had another investigator Luis he reminds me of Lucio. Now let me tell you about Luis. So the other day we had exchanges so I was with Hermana Palacious. Anyway we had two church tours set up and confirmed and of course they both fell through. Then we are going to our back up plan which was to visit a lady in the ward Sister Jiggetts. Well the problem is I couldn't exactly remember which apartment number she was in. Another things its those apartment complex's where the outside doors are locked on each building so luckily the first building we went into we asked someone outside to open the door. Well we get in the building, and as we are walking around I am thinking this is the wrong building. We walk back outside to the next building once again we were lucky enough to have found a lady who just got home so we walked with her inside the building. First thing we do is head up to the top floor, and knock on a door that could be it. Well it wasn't, but apparently somebody with the same named lived there last year so the guy just kept telling us she moved. I knew she hadn't moved we had just seen her a few weeks before. Then we go down to the second floor, and now this is starting to look familiar. I just wasnt sure if it was the first or second door. You know as missionaries you have no problem knocking on random doors even if it happens to be the wrong person. So we started with door number 2, and suprisingly enough they were actually spanish. We didn't even say who we were, and he let us right in. We shared the message of the restoration with him and his wife. The spirit was so strong. Some people you just get the feeling like they are already members, and I totally felt it with them. When were asking them about reading the book of mormon and coming to church Luis just said well why not, and expressed his desire to come. Later that week we had another lesson with them and read in the book of mormon. Once again it was such a great lesson, and he told us he would come to church. Well Sunday morning we always make a billion phone calls, but we didnt call him. Which actually was amazing because he walked into sacrament meeting on time!!! We didn't even have to call and wake him up or remind him. He just did it, and stayed for all three hours!!! His wife didnt come, but he said that he would be here next week.
Well thats about the update from my week. Things are going really well, and I am excited to see whats coming because really you never know. Well I love you all and I Hope you have the best week!!! Enjoy everything, and know that I love you and miss you. Love Always, Hermana Grimes XOXOX
