wow im all over the place i dont even know what to say!! whatever comes to mind how about that! and sorry last week was probably crazy! haha south america is crazy i tell ya!!
so first of all these members are amazing i already love them so much! you got aimee who just got baptized this week who went and taught with us already and she was SO AWESOME! i love her shes like 35 and from tahiti she is amazing and my best friend alsready. and you ot wilna whos 16! picture to come! shes so cute and she comes out with us on sundays and she got baptized a little over a year ago! i tell ya people conversions a miracles but its no mystery! the church is true! and then you got Leno! i heard a lot about him from th missionaries that baptized him they love him and i see WHY! he got baptized within the year and he loves soccer! we play soccer every week and today, this morning, he came and taught us how to play soccer! it made such a difference! oh ya and hes brazilian haha so that was fun! SO FUN! when am i ever gonna learn how to play soccer from a brazilian? hahahaha so wonderful i got so much better after that! sooooo i love this branch!!!!
but in other news! so ya our area is super cool i dont know if i ran it down last week, we dont live in our area, we live down the street from the church, so we drive a little far to our area (i always have far areas from the church! pani problem! the lord has been preparing me for this!) haha so we have to drive to our area and theres 3 cities, balata, cogneau and matury and we just hop around to members and investigators all day! man missionary work is crazy haha but soeur vance has this place down so its easy for me! and im starting to get all our members and people down so thats fun!
anyways so conversion is a MIRACLE but its not a mystery! think about it. the church is true. we all know that. why do we know that? HOW do we know that? are you converted? I AM!!!!! God wants us to be converted. This gospel is the way to peace in this life and eternal life in the world to come, 2 MARVELOUS blessings if you ask me! when elder cornish came, he told us we can PLAN conversion! yes it comes with prayer and fasting and receiving ansers to prayers but it WORKS! its true! so anyways ive just been letting that lead me. and i invite whoever reading to ask yourself why your converted to this gospel and if you dont know why.. MAKE IT A PRIORITY!! dont dance without the music! ready the book of mormong and aks God your quesions and I KNOW youll get a response.
so weve got some sweet new investigators!!!!!!!!!!! AH IM SO EXCITED! theres this one guy named vanel who speaks like only creole and soeur vance has kinda got that creole down, a little so we kinda get by. our first lesson we invited him to read the book of mormon in french (because thats what helped me learned french!) and our next lesson with him, was probably one of the funniest lessons of my entire mission!!!!!!! hahahahahaah so we get there and hes read every day! good job vanel! and then he just would like start reading in the book of mormon when we were like trying to teach about jospeh smith i had to like stop myself from lauyghing!! hahaha but then he would understand us and start to speka french and hes like' im getting french seee!!' hahahahah so funny! because hes reading thebook of mormon in french! i was happy :) other funny things happen but we ended up having to leave early because mosquiots were starting to come and i just couldnt handle it! he was like gonna slap my face cuw a mosquito was coming at me! so he was supposed to come to church but his girlfriend didnt pick him up (well get him next time dont you worry!) but hes a super cool ami!
and then you got those col members and weve been able to find some families! these 2 girls came up to us last week and were like 'come teach us english!' so we did! turns out the moms been to church before and shes was like 'YES COME BACK AND TEACH US THE GOSPEL!' i mean ok! id love to do that!
so. soeur tenney is gonne help some people be converted to Christ. its taken me a long time to figure this out people thats why i went off on that but CONVERSION IS NOT A MYSTERY but BIEN SUR(of course!) its a miracle! and i love miracles! and miralces come by faith.. a subject i will study more thsi week§
Well i love this gospel work and place! GUYANE ROCKS! THE GOSPEL ROCKS! and i love you all!
