Hermana Clarke, Hermana Richardson, Andre Falcon, and Tomas Falcon on the day he was ordained to the Aaronic Priesthood: 1/20/19

Buenas,

This week has been another wonderful week! We have seen lots of miracles. Hermano Tomás Falcón was ordained to the Aaronic Priesthood this Sunday!!! That was such a happy occasion! We are so so so happy for Hermano Falcon. He is ready to serve and to support the ward. He is such a good example of gospel learning and desire for progress because he loves to study the gospel. He asks us what we are going to teach the next lesson so that he can study up on it first and become prepared. His table is always filled with pamphlets and scriptures and notebooks when we come over.  I admire him so much! 

Jessica's son Brandon now has a baptismal date for February! We were walking down the street and happened to see him at his friends house playing football. We hadn't been able to talk to him in a while, and it was a miracle that we finally found him! He told us that he loves church and that he wants to serve a mission! Hahaha he would be an absolutely incredible missionary! We have been teaching him and he has a baptismal date for February, just like his aunt Juana! The ward is so happy that he may be the one to lead his family into the Gospel. What a tender thing that would be! That was a huge miracle.

Jessica is starting to recognize the Spirit so well. She has been praying about Joseph Smith and even participates in teachhing it to her family!!! She is amazing. We have seen lots of other miracles with God directing us by the Spirit. I know He guides our footsteps if we let Him. I saw evidence of that when we went to contact a referral who wasn't quite interested, but we asked them for a referral. We contacted that referral, and they weren't interested but we asked them for a referral and we contacted that referral, which was a sweet little old lady who was having a super hard time, and we came right in the right moment to be her shoulder to cry on. She also attended our church with her family when she was really really young. She is really prepared. I know God puts His trust and blessings with those who are dilligent and who show their faith! 

Les queremos, les quiero muchísimo.  Que tengan buena semana.

Rachelle says that when she goes over to teach Jessica's family, the girls always want to play with her hair because it is blonde, and they haven't seen many blondes before.
