Saludos!

It has been a busy week here! Our area has gotten a lot bigger, and we do a lot more walking. But we are teaching some really wonderful people, and we hope they can progress. Unfortunately, Hermana Seenaraines foot has been hurting her this week, so we have been walking a bit slower. We did intercambios today and she went to Santiago with Hermana Landaverde to have the mission doctor look at it. 

Today we got together with the zone leaders and the missionaries from Bonao 1 and went to the branch president{s house to play sports with his kids. We played soccer, baseball, ping pong, and scum. Hermana Lockheart made us lunch as well. It was so nice to eat homemade rolls and texas sheetcake. And when I used their bathroom, it was SO clean. That was probably the best part of the day. haha But I had a lot of fun hanging out with the missionaries. It was a hot day, but we had a lot of fun. 

On Sunday, we had 5 investigators and 5 less active members at church. It was so awesome. We picked up Penelope, the daughter in the Guzmna family, and took her to church. She really liked it. We invited her to the YW activity this Friday as well, so I hope she goes! We visited their family on Monday, and none of them had read the chapter in the Book of Mormon that we left them, so that was a little disappointing. How are they going to know its true if they dont read it! But they said they would this week, and I think they will. They are such a wonderful family and I just know that they can progress. We just have to get them moving so they can get baptized before they move to the capital! 

Yesterday we had a specialized training meeting with President and Hermana Douglas. It was also the last meeting we will have with them. It was really special, and extremely powerful. The Spirit was so strong during that meeting. Everyone felt it. Hermana Douglas{s talk was incredible. She is such amazing woman. She talked about the power of prayer. I soaked up every word she said. Im going to miss that couple. They are so incredible. I hope I can be just like them someday. It was sad to say goodbye, but I am so grateful for the impact they have made on my life.
