Impressions

Tomorrow is zone conference and we have to clean the car today. :) Inside and out. 

 

We had a really good beginning of the week. We began, Monday night, with something in every one of our key indicators except one. When you begin a week like that, you know it's going to be good. We also had exchanges, which were good. I learned a lot. Then we had a miracle happen!

 

We were trying to find a member who I'm going to call Alicia. Alicia has a very strict schedule, we could only go visit her between 2 and 4 in the afternoon, according to one of her friends. We were working on our area book when Hna. Stanford had the impression, "We need to go find Alicia. Right now." And as we were preparing to go, I had the impression, "We need to talk to the first Hispanic we see."

 

We go to her apartment community and as we're going up the walk to her building, we pass a Hispanic woman who I got a tiny prompting to talk to her...And I didn't. Neither did Hna. Stanford. So we continue to the apartment and we knock. No one answers, and it comes to me that we just passed Alicia on the walk. I communicate this to my companion, and we run back the way we came, but she's gone. No hay nadie (There's nobody). Then I finally tell Hna. Stanford that I had the impression to talk to the first Hispanic we see, and we didn't. Slightly frustrated, we drive home and we decide together to never ignore another prompting like that.

 

That night, we're planning, and I get the impression (and communicate it to my companion) that 2 o'clock the next day, en punto (on the dot) we HAVE to be at Alicia's apartment. So, next day. 2 o'clock, en punto, we knock Alicia's apartment. And she's there! She let us in and we had a nice little chat. She says, "Yesterday, you passed by me. Aren't you supposed to talk to everybody?"  Yeah....call to repentence...

 

Other cool highlights of the week: We got a drunk man to pray and we have an Athiest who's going to listen to the lessons. We're so excited!

 

Life is good and it goes on in the Washington D.C. South mission! Love you all and have a good week!
