Such a great week! Elder Zapata is such a great companion. He hit 4 months on the mission this week! Im just so greatful to have served as a social media leader, ever since i got here to this area/leadershio capacity, I have seen great changes in the people, ward, and especially the social media leadership. We have come a long way and im grratful to be part of it.
Miracle: we met Oliver the first week elder zapata and I were together we lost contact with him until about a week ago when it was POURING RAIN we were soaked, and about 8:15 pm. We were just at the point to return and turn in for the day when we saw two gentlemen in their car, we knocked on the window and turns out it was Oliver!. We began to teach them in the pouring rain we shared 3 nephi 11:10-11 and they "Were very surprised and shocked" they invited us over for sunday! Sunday comes around and we didnt realize it was the super bowl, oliver and all his buddies were over watching the super bowl, 2 or 3 days previous we talked with oliver about prophets amd sent him Elder stevensens talk!
Good thing we have been studying the most recent general conference so that we sent him a talk to suit his needs! Anyway, he texted us 5 minutes after we sent the talk with a screenshot of him watching it, he loved it! And told us he knew it was true! Sunday rolls around and we are invited into their big superbowl party we sit down they fed us some food and we began to talk. We brought the conversation to the Gospel and Oliver remembered the talk we sent him! He jumps up, turns off the SuPER BOWL and PUTS ON THE CONFERENCE TALK WE SENT! It was the most shocking thimg! All his buddies were surprised at first and little upset but thw spirit began to soften their hearts, it was an amazing miracle!!!
Ive been washing my fruits and vegtables this week!
This past week our hot water was turned off for the whole week almost so now we got it back and I will now return. To washing the dishes with Hot soapy water!
We had the opportunity to talk with the missionaries whl are now serving in my FIRST area more than a year ago, many of the friends i was privelidged to find and work with have now been baptized, and in the 6 months I was their my companion at the timw and I helped 3 of our brothers and sisters to the waters of baptism and all 3 are still active and participating in this glorious work+
My testimony has truly increased. i know without a doubt that this is TRUE
Im just so greatful to be a part of it
All the sisters who came in with me are now going home
Thats so nuts!!!

Be full of love and charity and just rejoice because God has restored his Kindgom through the profet José smit!
Its true!
Ok. Much love
