We were knocking doors and we went to a member who we have never met. We got there around 8:55. The son opened the door and we talked for a while. He is looking for more and wants to learn. He said he is really struggling and wants to grow closer to God. It was such a miracle.
Also this week, we met another kid who just graduated and really doesn't have a direction in his life.
Friday the Elders in our ward had a baptism and we got to go. I got to play the piano. A member came up to me and asked me if she could get the name of the special arrangement books that I play out of. She could not believe that I was making it up out of the Hymn Book. Those piano lessons really paid off!
Saturday was Juan's baptism and we were so excited for him. We did a musical number Hermana Raban sang and I played the piano.
The YSA sisters had a baptism Saturday too which was really fun to be able to go to.
Our ward had a BBQ on the beach and we got permission to go which was really fun.
Sunday, a family invited us over to dinner which was a miracle because I was so hungry.
Then we went to SLO for our sacrament meeting. I gave a talk which was good! I was super nervous.
It was my first talk in Spanish. It went well though. I got to talk to my Dad for Father's Day. We had a great call!
This week we found out that I will be staying in Morro Bay with Hermana Raban. It's pretty exciting because President rarely keeps companions for more than 2 transfers together but this is our third transfer together so we are really excited. The Lord is working miracles and it is going to be a great transfer!
