{8.24.15} I'm Gonna Sit Right Here, on the Edge of This Pier...

Don't have a lot of time today because we went fishing all day off of a Pier in the Caloosahatchee (?) River where it meets the ocean so it's gonna be a short one!

This last week was really sweet for a couple of reasons,
1.) Señorita  got the date of her last divorce so she's getting MARRIED AND BAPTIZED this week! So is Señor by default obviously (her "husband")
2.) I got to fish!
3.) We got to experience some severe weather! ( I hear a Hurricane is comin? someone please update me)

Señorita finally put forth the effort to get everything ready to be married after we shared a Scripture in Alma 34:32-34 about how this life is the time for men to perform their labors and not to procrastinate your repentance. Also, her daughter (28)  was present for the lesson as well and she took it to heart by QUITTING HER JOB so she could come to church on Sundays! Super crazy, but when people are ready the Spirit can testify to them powerfully. We are super excited to start teaching her because she is so willing to act and really just wants to do what God wants of her.

Biggest Catch of the day (sick neck tan line!)

Señorita  is doing very good. Thank you everyone for your prayers! ... It still may take sometime, but she is going to baptized which is all that matters. I'm just very grateful to have the opportunity to be one of the missionaries amongst the long line before me that gets to be apart of her conversion process. We were able to give her a blessing earlier this week, and the Spirit was SO strong! She was about to burst at the seams with Tears...


Crazy Weather in Florida sometimes...


Other than that, we get a car tomorrow!!.... that has no miles on it because the missionary who had "knee problems" that took it from us used all of the miles for the month.... so we have enough to maybe get to church on Sundays and (if we are lucky) drive the Library on P-Days!





Hope everyone is doing well!
