Hello! I have some wonderful stories this week - fasten your seatbelts ;)
On Thursday we decided to try and find a less-active family up in an area where we don't usually work, and when we arrived there we found this girl named Sarah. She seemed familiar with missionaries, and when we asked her if she had talked with missionaries before she said that two men with nametags like us had been teaching her and she was going to come to church with them (and it was our church). Se were trying to figure out who might have possibly taught her, and NONE of the elders knew who we were talking about .. she didn't end up making it to church, but we're trying by her again tonight and hopefully we can figure it out! Weird miracles...
We went and visited the family of the stake patriarch, and he used to work with president Kimball (I think) with the "Lamanites," and since sister Quintero is Mexican he just loved her. At the end of our visit he said "Sister Reynolds, you're very blessed because you get to have one of Lehi's kids as your companion" :)
We also had a lesson with one of our investigators last night at a park, and it was kind of flooded and there were lots of mosquitos, so we ended up having a lesson in a gazebo and drenched ourselves in repellent. The funny thing was that we didn't have chairs, so we were all just sitting on the ground. The lesson went really well though - we hadn't had a lesson with him in a long time, but he is progressing really well! His name is Michael and when we met him he had recently changed from being Atheist to being Agnostic, and he is progressing in really incredible ways - it's super amazing to be a part of it.
Okay, well I gotta run, but I love you all! The 4 sisters that live in our apt are doing an English fast for a month... so hopefully our Spanish is gonna improve a lot. Yikes! we started today and it's a little daunting, but it'll be good ;)
Love you all!
Love,
