*We can have sugar now because our investigators have not smoked in OVER A WEEK!!
*It turns out the Easter Bunny doesn't come to missionary apartments... but he does come to church and then the members give you the baskets. Go figure.
*We get to go to the temple tomorrow! I love the LA temple!
*We were praying about where we should go street contacting. We decided on Marigold Ave. We drove around the street to check it out and I saw this man standing outside washing his car. He looked Spanish but I just knew that he was why we were on that street. I said the prayer before we got out of the car and I prayed for the gift of tongues. We got out and headed for his home. We started talking and he explained that he didn't speak very much English. Ah, just what I was afraid of haha. So, in Spanish, I started explaining who we were and why we were there. He said that he had heard of the Mormon's and wanted to know what was different about us so I explained and we talked about some other things. We set up another time for the Spanish sisters to come by and teach him more. As we left the contact Sister Buchanan said "Wow. Where did that Spanish come from?" I know that it was Heavenly Father helping me. I didn't know many of the words that I said. I'm sure I've studied them, but this man was being prepared and needed us to talk to him and refer him to the other sisters. I am so grateful that I could be an instrument in the hands of God that day.
*Did I already tell this story? We were about to go into one of our investigators homes and we were praying in the car and this lady knocks on Sister B's window during our prayer... so she rolls it down. The lady says "did I just see you taking pictures of my car??" We of course looked so confused... because uh no we were not taking pictures of her car, bless her heart. "No we weren't talking pictures of your car..." we told her. But just in case we were she snapped a picture of OUR car and our license plate... OH California. (:
Hope y'all's Easter was fantastic!
Love, Sister *
