8 MONTHS!

Sorry i´m writing later than usual! Hermana Vigo made a Peruvian dish called Papa de la Huancaina (my favorite dish that I´ve tried here in Spain!) for our whole district so we´ve been busy all day. The four elders from our district came and the Guffeys too and we all just hung out in the chapel woohoo! My comps the best, she has a lot of Peruvian pride haha! I´ve learned more about Peru in the past transfer than I´ve learned about Spain here in 8 months, I swear ;) (like how I slyly dropped in there that I´ve hit my EIGHTH MONTH MARK haha)

Anyway, transfers came and went and Hermana Vigo and I are staying here in Puerto for at least 6 more weeks! TOMA! In fact, our whole district is staying together which almost NEVER happens! Its awesome though because this District has been by far my favorite, we all click really well and the Elders always keep things exciting haha. Plus, what would I do without our Guffeys!! But anyway, Hermana Vigo and I are really excited to stay, we´ve worked really hard this transfer and its paying off! But seriously though, I don´t think I´ve ever worked this hard on my mission thus far....in fact, its the first transfer I´ve had where neither me or my comp had to stay in piso for a couple days on account of sickness or injuries. So we´ve literally been going non-stop! And we´ve walked SO much. So much. My calf muscles are HUGE, I can´t fit them into my old jeans hahaha. But yeah.  I´m so proud of hermana Vigo-- I´m exhausted and I´ve been able to get used to the mission life whereas this is her first transfer! Seriously, I love this girl! She has just such energy and love for everything and everyone! I don´t know what I´d do without her--she´s a big blessing and a big part of my time here in Puerto.

So now to the miracles! I´m so excited to share this one! ------

PAULA CAME TO CHURCH! But first let me explain the background that made this miracle such a tender mercy! So first off, Isabel still doesn´t have permission to be baptized so we were down about that. And then our other progressing investigator, Paula, told us on Wednesday that she might be moving to Huelva for her job (noooooooooo!) We tried to mask our disappointment but I think she could tell that we were so sad to have to say goodbye! But anyway, flashforward to sunday when we come to church and we were in the bathroom when Elena Rodriguez came into the bathroom and told us we had a surprise waiting for us in the hallway and when we walked out there was Paula!! Seriosuly, we weren´t expecting it at ALL! This was her first time at church and she totally came on her own (we didn´t do anything because we thought she was in Huelva) and on top of that, didnt tell us anything because she wanted to surprise us because she knew how much it´d mean to us! Dawwwwww. Tender merciessssss! She loved it and told us she wants to come every week! I just love how the Lord works, i don´t know how many times I´ve told this story but I´ll tell it again--we initially contacted her mom only because she was interested in our english classes and out of this came the sweetest tender mercy of my transfer! I love Paula!! Its hard to see her because she lives in Rota but its so worth it! AH! Rota blessings!

To be honest, nothing else really crazy happened this week....this is the first time I´ve been stumped writing a letter home! Just know that all is well here and that my testimony is strengthened every day. Seriously, every day. I will never forget this time here serving the Lord. I love being an instrument in His hands as He molds me into the person He needs me to be! I LOVE YOU ALL! Pray for us, that we can have the energy to keep going strong this transfer!! 

HURRAH FOR ISRAEL!!

Love, Hermana Morrow
