Henrietta!!

Honestly this week was amazing. We saw a butt load of little miracles and had a really awesome week.
Here's a recap!
300 goals-- Elder Johanson showed us a really cool video about writing down our goals and things we want to a complish during our lives. He kind of challenged us to write down 300 things. I'm at around 150!! It's been pretty fun.
Backyard pool clean up--After our district council we all went to this awesome house and helped this guy clear up his backyard. He had a huge pool and pond that was just covered in weeds and bushes and a bunch of junk so we were able to pulldd out SO MUCH and it looks so good. I'm definitely grateful that my parents taught me how to fix up a yard. Haha
Photoshoot--We had a meeting in Weslaco and after that Elder Kibaribari and Elder Bunderson wanted to take some pictures to use for our Facebook pages. We'll my comp can't act to save her life so we were laughing too much hahaha it was pretty funny.
Yanette and her family--Yanette is a referral we got and we've been talking to her and she's awesome. She let us go to her house and we taught her and some of her kids. We totally invited them to church and her and her four kids came!!! They heard us speak at church and they loved it and told us that they want us to come by every Wednesday! Yay!!!!!
Exchanges on Exchanges-- Okay I was in three different places this week. I went on an exchange with Hna. Medley in Edinburg and it was awesome. I totally ate cereal for like breakfast lunch and dinner because they had so much of it hahahah
But we were grinding and helping a little girl they're teaching prepare for baptism! But the morning we went to switch back and we were doing service and this lady let her chickens free so she kept yelling at one that was pecking her hand..."Henrietta!" It was great I was petting them and pulling weeds at the same time. Valley cosas.
So then I switched back to Hna.Morgan for only like an hour then went to Weslaco with Hna.Wakefield. We were grinding so hard it felt awesome. We helped the city fill up sandbags for the "hurricane" that might or might not happen. But we talked to the city worker and got his wife's info to teach them!! Woohooo.
We also followed the tradition of going out to eat when I'm in Weslaco. So we got burgers again and Elder Roblyer swiped on Ice Cream for us. YUM!
Painting project--We had another service project after our exchange and we helped this lady paint the inside of this little house. Her name is Pheobe. Her little daughter was soooo cute!!!! She had a gold chain and bracelet on and she isn't even 2 yet 😂😂
Church-- So Yanette and her three kids came to church and also a random former showed up too. Then we had "church" through FaceTime with Sammy and Javier. We asked Sammy to be baptized and he said yes! He said he wants to but obviously wants to feel prepared! We're so excited for him!!!!
We also spoke in church...that was a little nerve-racking but the elders said they couldn't tell if we were nervo0us or not. So that's a blessing. 

My week was great I definitely saw the hand of God in it multiple times. I love being a missionary for that reason. I love when God puts us in the right place at the right time. That's how miracles are seen.
I love you guys so much!
STAY 2 LEGIT 2 QUIT
Con todo mi amor,
Hermana Darling
