Root for Argentina this Wednesday!


 
People going crazy in the street after Argentina won their game on Tuesday.
 
Living it up in the rain!

It looks like I am ducking, but that's just me in the street.
This week had so many miracles.  First off, world cup.  Oh yeah, it´s getting pretty crazy down here because we are now in the top 4!  Woot woot.  I am so lucky to be here to see how it is in other countries because we really don´t do anything for the world cup up there... so yeah, we are going to change that.  But it´s great because we always know what´s going on because people have it on their teles, radios, restaurants, and in the street.  We know when there is a goal because we can hear GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL in all of the street.  It really is so great to see how it is.  So yeah, that´s the world cup for now.  (Messi is the best.. regardless of what other people say (yeah, I am talking to you, Simon)).  But there was also awesome stuff with the work.

The other day we were walking talking to people during the the afternoon and there was a man, we decided to talk to him.  We didn´t think much of it, but we were in the area so we decided to pass by his house a few days later.  When we arrived, he told us that we had also talked to his wife in the street a few days before that.  He then began to tear up and tell us that he had been feeling like he needed to join a church.  His wife then explained that he had said a prayer to God to help him know WHICH of all the churches was the church that they needed to join.  A few days after that, we talked to his wife in the street, and a few days after that, we talked to him.  He got really emotional because he really felt that God was watching out for him.  We told him that we would return saturday night to talk to them and explain what we do in church.  Saturday it rained and stormed so much, but we went anyway.  They were so blown away by our dedication that they said, "We want to be a part of a church that has that kind of dedication. We will go to church tomorrow."  Sunday morning it was the worst storm ever!  We went to their house, and before touching the door bell, they saw us and left the house ready to go!  It was incredible!  They absolutely loved it!  Seriously, when people are willing, God provides the way.

I love being a missionary so much!  We really can feel that God speaks directly through us, we just have to be willing to listen.  

Love you all!  :)
