Sick But Still Okay

How are you all doing?   I don´t feel good, but lots of nice people are taking care of me and I have been blessed with the nicest, most patient companion in the world and I love her and she is nice:)  

I am not able to chop wood, but the good news is my companion has become an expert in both wood chopping and fire building so we are not quite as freezing in the mornings...I am so proud:´) except the wood is wet again, but we are working on that...

Anyway, what else can I tell you?  Oh last night I had kind of a weird dream.  I was in Southern Chile knocking doors to teach people about the amazing restored gospel of Jesus Christ!  (That is not the weird part) and I knocked one door and Beisha Hernandez came outside...then I asked her if her family was home and she was like, "Yeah!" and I went inside and started teaching the Hernandez family.  Weird huh?  I was dreaming in Spanish by the way...So now you can tell Brother Hernandez that I apparently am really excited to come home and speak Spanish with him.

I haven´t been working a lot this week but the Lord has blessed us with lots of tender mercies.  First:  Since we can´t go out and visit people all the time we are writing them little notes jammed pack with spiritualness.   We went by one of our investigators that hasn´t answered his phone for the past month and left him a note with a plan of salvation pamphlet.  Then we called him two days later and actually got a hold of him and we have an appointment with him and we found out that he has been having a hard time and this just happens to be the perfect opportunity for him to hear about the restored gospel...It is amazing how the Lord is preparing some of these people and how the Lord is helping us to find them and help them.

Some of our members invited their neighbors over for a family home evening with us and we had a great lesson and they really liked hearing what we had to say.  I think the members liked taking part in a lesson like that too.  Afterwards Hermana Núñez and I felt like the sisters in the District videos that have perfect lessons with members so that was fun.  Also one of our contacts that we have been trying to visit for a month called us the other day while I was stretching my back and said she really wants to talk to us.  She hasn´t been able to yet because of work, but this week she is going to take a day off from work so we can come talk to her.  We´ve also got more members bringing their friends over for us to teach!  We are excited about that.  It is really nice that people are bringing investigators to me because I can´t go out and tract:)  Ah, the tender mercies of the Lord.

Well, that´s all I´ve got for now.

I love you all LOTS!

Love,
Lexie
