Week #39 - Miracles in Quarantine Still Happen

 Monday, October 19, 2020

OI TUDO MUNDO!!!! 
What a great week. Miracles truly happen when you least expect them to. AKA: quarantine lol. We saw some cool things happen this week and it was SO FUN!! Here they are... 
While in quarantine, we have had to think outside of the box. So we have our app on our phone that gives us the numbers for our members and for those we are teaching, but we decided to go through the SIM card on our phone. We came across a lot of names we didnt recognize, so we called them and said something like, "hey it's the sisters! is this *so and so*" they usually say yes , "cool, we actually have no idea who you are. We just have your number saved in our phone." Then that sparks a conversation with them hahaha! Wellllllll... we called this one lady named Cassidy, and she was super kind. She told us she isn't apart of the church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints but that she has family, friends, and neighbors that are. Well, turns out I had actually found Cassidy on FB the day before. WHAT??? Anywho we talk to her for a minute and she is so kind. Fast forward to this Saturday when we go for it and call her again and asked her if we could come over this next friday (our quarantine ends on Thursday) and then she told us, "you probably want my whole family there, so can you come over on thursday?" WELL OF COURSE WE CAN!! So that will be happening this week and we are pumped! Definitely a quarantine miracle.

I have been using facebook a lot. Trying to think of different ways to reach out to people. I was searching through this group and this girl shared some of her concerns about the unknown of the afterlife. I reached out to her, we ended up chatting on fb messenger for a couple days and we have a lot in common and then we had a video call with her this past week and taught her all about the plan of Salvation and she absolutely loved it! It was cool to see a miracle happen from Facebook like that. We are still talking and hopefully will be able to teach her again this week! 

Those are the main big things that happened this past week. But we did have something funny happen this week...
So our zone has all been into pranking, so the elders on the reservation came and dropped off a sketchy doll to he, so we pranked the elders in our district and they still dont know it was us. It's been fun since we are getting stir crazy here in quarantine. I'll attach some pictures of when we pranked them this week!! 
Overall, these past 2 weeks of quarantine have been miracle filled. Crazy what happens when God's plan is better than what you imagined. I love being a missionary and I love you all as well!!!

Also, here's a scripture that I loved from this week (shout out to papa G)
3 Nephi 18:24 
"Therefore, hold up your light that it may shine unto the world. Behold I am the light which ye shall hold up—that which ye have seen me do. Behold ye see that I have prayed unto the Father, and ye all have witnessed."
SHINE YOUR LIGHT TOWARDS OTHERS!!!
