Rice and beans for days!

POWERFUL!! This week was powerful! Elder Alonzo came and talked with us this past week and he didn't talk much but it was powerful!

Here´s a little story about one of our investigators. So we were out contacting and this lady comes out of her house and we present ourselves and then we tell her a little bit about our message and she tells us to come back tomorrow. So we come back and we teach her the Restoration and about Joseph Smith and she tells us she'll pray. Then we teach her about the Book of Mormon and we read about how Jesus came to America. Then she reads Mosiah chapter 4 and loves it! She told us that the only reason that she let us in was because in our contact we said that our message was about families and she´s having a little troubles with her sons and she really opened up to us. Also, this Sunday she came to church! She seriously needs your prayers! Her life has been really hard. 

After we visited her we went to dinner at the Bishop's house which was Chicken, with rice and beans and soda and french fries. Then our next appointment gave us dinner too! And it was Chicken with rice and beans with soda and plantains. Then while we were eating a member in the bishop bric calls us and asks us where we are and that his wife is waiting for us. I was like, Why is she waiting for us? Dreading the answer, and he said, To come eat of course! So after we went over and we ate chicken with rice and beans with soda and plantains. We were dying! It was so hard to walk! But I went to bed that night full!

Sunday we were eating lunch and the member that gives us lunch had her feet up and it turns out she has this really bad ingrown toe nail, her nail was growing into her toe and it was causing an infection to the point where she couldn't walk. I told her that she needed to get rid of her nail and so I called a member who is a doctor and he came over and numbed it and pulled it out! She held our hands and they just did a medical procedure in her backyard! #Nicaragua! 

Then this morning Hermana Vasquez and I went to wash her clothes for her since she couldn't wash them herself. It was a really productive morning! 

I have to go but I love you all!
