> This week was full of miracles! Our finding efforts were finally rewarding, our ward is starting to trust us, and we finally met Bettina!

> Firstly, our finding! We were out all week trying to find people to teach. On Thursday we started to knock a street. The first like 4 doors were super awesome! The first door was a family that literally got done praying to find a church. *ENTER MISSIONARIES* She answered the door and started exploding with joy. She told us she and her family had just moved in and was praying to know what church to go to. It was an amazing experience! She came to church yesterday and she told us she loved it! We set up an appointment for this Wednesday. The next door we found a single mother who had talked to missionaries before. She said her past feeling for our church were very negative but then the past missionaries had talked to her and now she's super friendly towards us. She said we could come back anytime and talk to her. We are defiantly going to do that! The next door was a less active member who was not on the records anymore so we had no idea she was there. She was rushing out of the house to go pick up her sons from school but was very friendly and invited us to come back anytime. A couple of houses later Elder Modesto had to use the restroom so we went back to what we thought was one of the people we had just encountered, unfortunately it wasn't but he let us in anyways. While my companion was in the bathroom, we started talking and I figured out he had been going through a hard time recently and was starting to question God and his plan for him. I told him that originally we thought this was someone elses house and that our meeting him was no coincidence. I told him that God has something in store for him, He(God) just needs to humble him before it was reveled to him. Then I told him about the gospel and how it can help him more than anything. He accepted to take the lessons. He also came to church on Sunday and said that one meeting changed his point of view on everything. A lot of people bore their testimony on faith. God certainly knew what would help him.

> We had another surprise on Sunday. after weeks of trying to meet her, Bettina came to church just out of the blue and we finally got to meet her! She stayed for the whole 2 hours(WOW That's weird to type out. 2hrs instead of 3!) and loved every minute of it.

> It's amazing how God tests you to see if you're humble enough to receive blessings from him! That's all from this week. Have a GREAT week. Continue in your faith and move mountains!
