Uno Mas!!

Hello everyone!! This has been such a crazy week!! The good news is IT'S FINALLY WARM!!! I can now finally work on getting my good AZ tan back! So get ready to see the slow progression to me being tan again!  
So there were a lot of ups and downs this week. The biggest down was the girl we had on date to be baptised this week dropped us. So that was obviously pretty rough, but hey all of us have the gift of agency! And also Elder Masulonis got sick, also a down, but through it all there were actually some pretty good things that happened!! I'll share two of the biggest miracles. 
So first one happened Saturday night. We were heading back from a lesson and it was about 8:45, so we were really just heading back to the flat for the night. We walked past a lady just leaning against a fence, and I just said hi as we walked by. We got a little farther down, and I turned to Elder Masulonis and said I felt like we should go back and talk to her, but it was getting late. But he said if I feel we should lets do it. So we go back and start talking to her. She then tells us the craziest story. She said she was walking the university cause that's where her husband used to work. Her husband died about a year ago to cancer. She said she was walking and praying to know how to get through this hard time. She then stopped to just take a breath. A lot of people were walking past and no one was saying hi. Then we walked past and said hi, and she thought that was so nice. Then when we came back she saw it as a sign from God!! She's the coolest lady and we'll be seeing her on Wednesday!! So that was amazing! Another miracle was we got to give our recent convert Valerie's mum a blessing! And then she came to church the next Sunday! We'll be going by on Tuesday to see what she thought of it, so pray for us haha! Another cool experience this last week was we got to listen to a broadcast from President Nelson and Elder Holland to the missionaries in the UK and Ireland! It was AMAZING!! My favourite thing was actually said by Sister Holland. She said the most important thing we will do on our mission is develop a relationship with our Heavenly Father and his Son. So like I said, highs and lows this week haha. But all in all a great week! I'm so grateful to be out here serving the people I love! I love you all and hope you have a great week!!
