Highlights of the Week

Hey everyone! So sorry I didn't write an email last week, but you probably didn't notice anyway haha.
 Last week was a long week and I wasn't in my area most of the week anyway. I had to do exchanges in two small towns, Snyder and Seminole, and wow I'm so glad I'm not in a small town anymore. 
 So this week we've been fasting and praying hard for some miracles and to find some elect people. I can testify that the Lord definitely answers prayers! We had some great things going, and it was cool to learn that it didn't just drop into our lap. We had to work and grind. 
 Anyway, this week started by doing blitzes in Hobbs. It was so great. Ever since I got to Lubbock I haven't been able to use my spanish much, maybe a few times a week, but in Hobbs we found 3 whole Spanish families! And I'm happy to report my Spanish is still doing really good haha. 
 On Wednesday we went to a members house and she happened to have two people living there. They're Summer and Sam, so we started talking and Sam has visited churches his whole life looking for what he thinks is right. We were able to share the Restoration with them and they loved it. The spirit was so powerful and during the first vision they were locked in. They took a Book of Mormon and said they want to learn more! 
 We had MLC this week and Tanner and Elder Holgreen were able to spend the night so that was dope. So weird being around Tanner on the mission but I love it. 
 Saturday we found the Shaw family! They're seriously so cool. They had already been reading The Book of Mormon and they had so many questions for us. It was such a cool lesson and they are so prepared! So cool to see the Lord answer our prayers. They couldn't come to church but they said they would be the next week. 
 Sunday night we were biking and we stopped to talk to a guy. I had such a strong impression to talk about prophets, and how they can guide us and keep us and our families safe in an unsafe world. Immediately the guy was asking for our info, pamphlets, books and church address. So we shared about the Book of Mormon and scheduled a time to go back! Anyway that's a highlight reel of the week. 
Love y'all!
