Hola,
This week was good. Hermana Mena's visa came, so she
leaves for Argentina on August 1. I'm super sad to see her go and it's been
super fun to train her, but she'll be awesome in Argentina. I finally finished
my last exchange for the transfer on Saturday with Hermana Standring. On
Wednesday, we had our zone conference and we got to get to know President and
Sister Christensen better. They're super cool.
My birthday was really fun. The sisters I live with got
me balloons and made brownies and for dinner, a member took us to get pizza,
wings, and pizzookies. On Tuesday, our whole zone was together and my zone
leaders bought a cake. And on Wednesday, our ward mission leader got me a tres
leches cake and like a billion tamales. Let's just say, I had a lot of sugar
this week.
This week, we were finally able to find Ediberta, this
lady who we met more than a month ago and accepted to be baptized and then
literally disappeared. But when we saw her again, she was like "which day
am I getting baptized again?" She hadn't forgotten anything and she
actually has been to the Mesa temple visitors center years ago with a member
she knew.
We also found a new family to teach. On Sunday evening,
literally no one was home and we tried so many doors, but no one opened. We
went to try this guy Santos that we had talked with on the street the other day
and he wasn't super interested, but he said we could come back.
His daughter told us he wasn't home, so we went across
the street to knock on the door of a potential and the daughter ran across the
street and told us that her mom wanted to talk to us. We went back and had an
awesome sit down lesson with them. They really want to get closer to God and
they've been wanting to find a church here in Phoenix. The daughter is coming
to mutual on Tuesday too.
This morning for pday, the sisters I live with and I went
to South Mountain to go hiking and that was super fun. I'll send some pictures.
Sorry, there's not a whole lot of news this week. We had
a lot of people cancel on us. Have a great week.
Love,
Hermana Gubler
