Rhett - Obligado

Hello family and friends!

This week was a little tough but there were some great things that happened too. We were able to see a lot of little miracles here and there. One thing our mission is really focusing on right now is seeing the miracles God is putting in our paths every day. This month every missionary received a little book where every night we write a miracle that happened that day. It's incredible to recognize all the miracles that are coming in the work here. We have also been preparing a day of miracles for the 2nd of September. This month every missionary was assigned a day to pray and fast for this day of miracles. The mission has been seeing some some amazing ones!

This area here seriously is incredible though. We have met some investigators truly prepared for us. We have been teaching a girl named Rosaly who is 18 years old. We taught her last week about the restoration of the gospel and how she needs to pray to know if it's true. When we first met with her, she told us about how she wants to listen to us because we share the word of God but that she would not be willing to change her religion or go to our church. So last week we taught her the restoration, about why our church is different and how the authority of God has been restored to the Earth today. God loves us so much, that he called a prophet on the Earth today. But all of that depends on one thing, if this is the true church or not. If this is the church that Christ established when he was here on the Earth. You can pray and get an answer for yourself. So we invited her to pray and told her that she will recieve an answer if she really wants to know and asks God in faith. This week we had a lesson with her again and we asked her if she had the opportunity to pray. She said that she prayed on Monday and received her answer on Wednesday. Me and my companion weree like whatttt? You revieved an answer? What was it? She told us that it was personal and that she didn't want to tell us but that she felt really good. It was pretty funny that she didn't want to tell us about it but I know she for sure that she did get her answer. She said she just feels good and wants to come to church on Sunday. We ended the lesson and when we got to the pension that night she sent us a message and just told us how grateful she is that we have been visiting her and how how she feels great! She is so awesome and also lives with her family of five. I know that if she really is committed and is baptized her family will follow. It was just a great miracle this week about how God is willing to answer prayers when we sincerely ask Him. We are going to try and set a baptisimal date with her this week. If you guys could pray for her that would be awesome!

Sorry I'm really bad with writing these letters haha, and from what my mom tells me my spelling has gotten horrible haha but honestly I love this work! My comp and I are working really hard and we are seeing the fruits of our labor. There are so many miracles happening here. I love you all and I hope you have a great week! Ill be praying for you!
