Hola Mamacita!!!

Haha so I forgot the best part of my bike crash story! We had a miracle! I almost forgot about it in the midst of all the funniness! So while we were biking, I saw a hispanic on the side of the road that was working for a white guy at his house. As we passed, I said, "Hola!" Then after we crashed, we were crossing an intersection when a guy in a green van says, "Hola! Como estan?" It was the hispanic that I said Hola to before!!! He said he wanted to talk with us, so he pulled over in a parking lot and we walked over and started talking to him about the gospel! It was super awesome and he seemed pretty interested! The only problem is that he lives in Rancho, but that's ok because we got all his info! We probably wouldn't have seen him again if I hadn't crashed!

I haven't talked to the Burgoyne's yet, but that's because we have interviews this week and I wanted to ask President Jardine before I do it. Sounds good, right? We're not doing anything too special for Memorial Day... we're going to Deseret Book, though! That should be fun! :P

We've been making Sis Schow a bunch of cookies this week, which is super dangerous because I think I'm addicted to cookies. :P she ate the last one and then she left the note on the plate that said, "No more cookies! Boo hoo!" Haha she is so funny! I love her!

Sis Schow was talking on the phone on Friday and it turns out that it was Hna Flores! She went home on Thursday. It made me super sad, but super happy because I know that that was probably the best thing for her and she came up with that decision on her own and with the help of the Lord.

Our miracle investigator, Ramiro, that we found about a week and a half ago is pretty awesome! He's the one that contacted us in an apartment complex. We've been bringing one of our members, Eusebio, to all of his lessons and it has been super great! Ramiro is so excited to learn! He doesn't have a car, but before we even invited him to come to church, he asked if Eusebio had a car and then asked if he could take him to church! What! Who does that?! None of my investigators have ever done that! We taught him about the Book of Mormon and he said, "You know how there are manuals to fix your car, well this is like a manual on how to live your life!? Ya! You got it Ramiro! 

Last week, right before one of our lessons, he called and left a message. I listened to it, but there was a bunch of noise so I couldn't understand it. So I gave it to Hna Burke and she said it was Ramiro cancelling on us. Aww man! We were pretty bummed. The next morning we called him and he asked, "Where were you guys?! You didn't come?" I listened to the message again and it turns out that he was asking us what we wanted him to study before we came by because he forgot! What! We were so happy!

He wasn't able to come to church this week because of work, which scares me A LOT! Latinos are hard workers and they will work everyday, 10 hours a day if they need to. But we invited him to be baptized on the 27th of June and he accepted!!! we are really praying hard for him, both gratitude and strength from the Lord, because he is a miracle! 

Haha it's sooo cute! Whenever we talk to Sis Schow about Ramiro, she always says "RRRRRRRRRamiro!" Haha she's had hermanas in her house for 6 years, she's pretty good at rolling her Rs :P 

Para Siempre Dios este con Vos,

Con Amor,
