Exciting week!


Well this has been a very exciting week! June is almost over and time
just keeps going faster! We have seen many miracles this week, and I
am so grateful for the chance that God has given me to serve him. It
is crazy to think that in 3 months from today I will be home. I am
amazed that it has gone by so fast! But I am still trying to learn and
try to find people who are prepared for the gospel. As always time is
short and so lets get going to the Stories of the week!
Story 1 The Tale of the 
Breakfast So there is this one less active that we have been trying to see since I got to this area. And a few weeks ago we finally were able to contact her. After talking with her she invited us to come to her house for breakfast. So this past Friday we went to her house, for the breakfast. It all tasted very good and she made this Egg Mcmuffin thing on a beagle that had green chilly on it! I love green chilly! Mom we will have to come back and I will show you what real Mexican food is! Well any way we had a great lesson and went home. At home things turned for the worst. I got sick and had to lay down and sleep for a few hours. We are not sure what is was but we think that is may have been the large quantities of fatty things. There was tons of bacon on the beagle which had been toasted with butter, and eggs that were dripping with cheese. Also apparently the chocolate milk was whole milk and I did not notice it. But things are better and later that night we helped a Less active clean her house. So everything worked out!

Story 2 The Tale of Our Many Miracles Again this week has been so amazing! We have truly seen the hand of the Lord in this work. First off is one with our investigator Aurora. She has been going through some very hard times. But she has recognized that meeting with us has been helping her to feel better. She also knows that is not us who is making things better. Apparently she has told a few of her friends that she is meeting with us. And when anyone says this your heart automatically sinks because this usually means that they are not going to listen to us any more. She said that they started to tell her about how we are terrible people who lie and lure people in with lies. But she has truly felt the spirit wittiness to her heart that we are none of thoughts awful things. She told us that she just stopped listening to them, and that she knows that what we are saying is some thing good and that has helped her. She said that she remembered the time that we shared the Joseph Smith story and the peace and calm that came over her then. She said that she wants to be baptized and to have that peace in her life always!!! I love her so much and I am truly blessed that I get the chance to work with her and her family. And Aurora and her son Miguel are on date for July 12 for baptism! So pray for them! The next miracle was the Begay family. I told you how we felt like we needed to go see her and she was having a bad day. Then she accepted to take the lessons. Well on Sunday night we felt prompted again to go see them. And we find Tina sitting on the stairs, she had apparently just got home from work. so we went in and started talking with her and her husband.
We shared a message about how much Heavenly Father loves them. And Thermun ( Tinas husband) Just started to cry and told us that he wants his family to be together forever. Tina also told us that the first day we stopped by she had been praying for help from God. And that she knows that we are truly the answer to her prayers.She also accepted baptism for July 18! So pray for her also !! Well I have to run but I love y'all so much and will try to make you all proud in the last 3 months of my mission! Have a great week and I cant wait to hear from y'all soon!!! 
 Love Sister Chatwin
