"I am on the phone with a Mormon right now!"

Hola amigos!

This week we knock on a door and a man opens up and we explain that we are missionaries for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and then we hear a voice yell "I am on the phone with a Mormon right now" so they invite us in and we were talking with this family with this member from an english ward on speaker phone. It was super interesting but really funny! She then took a picture of us and sent it to her friend who we saw the next day at church and then sent it to our moms. That is how you got the picture. We shared with her 3 nephi 11 and she said she would talk to her friend about it so that was cool too!

We went on two exchanges this week. One was in a little city called Culpeper. Its this cute little country town with a lot of Hispanics. We handed out 5 Book of Mormons in an hour. It was nuts. Super awesome place that smells like pickles all the time haha!

We were taught a less active and his wife this week and they are so cool. Saul and Natalie. Saul is a radiation therapist so thats super cool and I really like talking to him about that stuff! Saul  was baptized when he was 12 but has just gotten so busy that he has stopped going to church and his wife is open to learning. They only have time on the weekends for their family time with their daughter but they are willing to make time to meet with us so that is exciting! We talked a lot about the introduction to the Book of Mormon. We are going back and we are excited!

Our investigator, Roxany is ready for her baptism this saturday! She is a shy 15 year old but she wanted to make sure to have her baptism at a time that the branch could come celebrate with her. We are so pumped. We went over last night to finalize the program and she is so pumped! She credits a lot of her conversion to girls camp and I can really relate to that. I am grateful that we have a church that is dedicated to giving people opportunities to feel the Spirit.

I have been reading the Book of Mormon and the Doctrine and Covenants a lot lately and I just know that we have a prophet on the earth today to lead and guide us. I know that Jesus Christ is the head of our church and that God is in the details of our lives. I know with out a doubt that we have the true church of Jesus Christ on the earth and I am lucky enough to be spreading the word of that! I love this gospel!

I love you all! Have a great week!
