"Its raining its pouring the old man is standingatthedoorasthemissionariesteachhimaboutchrist" 

I love rain. It california rained saturday all day! by the end of the day we were pretty much soaked which is imprssive for Cali! but it is true!

I got to go on 2 amazing exchanges this week. One in Santa barbra with sister Thompson (I totally saw Oprah's house) and one in Goleta with sister blake! I am the luckiest sister when it comes to exchanges. The sisters in this mission are top notch and just straight up amazing!

in SB we were walking and looking for prey. A man walks out of his house and heads to his car so we keep walking, just a bit faster, becasue he is going the same way we are. So he gets to his car and now it has turned into a very potentially awkward interaction... but we push forward and think #missionriesareawkwardanyway! MIRACLE!!!! He has had TONS of interactions with members and his two business partners are both mormon. They have talked to him about the chuch and he love just about everything they share. He has read the BOM twice and is pretty much a member. He even called himself an honorary member. So we talk to him and he is GOLDEN I mean golden. So what is his hang up. He hasn't prayed to know if it is true. So what do we do? We read moroni 10:3-4 and committed him to pray on his knees. As we leave he starts to call his mormon fiends to tell them what just happened... #talk to everyone!

God loves us. he really does. This week we have made some cool changes in the mission where we are pretty much getting rid of tracting and just working with all of your amazing members! I have been praying for a vision on how I can take this and run with it! Then we talk to a memeber. She tells us the most amazing story of how her frind that she has shared the gospel with asked for a blessing. We are going to have FHE with them next mon and start teaching from then on out! What a blessing.

There are so many souls that are prepared. They want what we have! I love getting to be the one who delivers it to them! Its kinda like Santa but a million times better! the church is true! if you dont know it or need a reminder, read the BOM and pray about it. We are promised an answer! I knwo you will get it and it will change your life!
