On April 12th I hit my ONE YEAR mark!! The night before that, we were walking home, and Hermana B made me stand in the store and stare at the door while she bought me something. Then when I woke up the next morning she had put a Coke, an alfajor (candy), and a note on my desk - so cute. It was a super stormy day, so we ended up having to return home by 7pm. Can't believe ill only have 4 transfers left. It seems so short, but I know I can still accomplish a ton in 6 months. 
So we´ve been preparing Maíra for her baptism this week. She's progressing a lot, and was excited for next Saturday, but didn't make it to church this week. Please pray all goes well. 
We are also teaching Jose - he owns a mattress store. We gave him a Book of Mormon, and then we decided to bring him some banana bread one day, and he actually invited us to eat lunch at his house on Saturday. and said we´d talk about his questions about the pamphlet of the restoration. So I prepared a ton, getting all my scriptures ready.. and the lunch went well.. just small talk. Then he and his wife started asking us questions about the Book of Mormon and Joseph Smith and testified that he would have to inquire and receive an answer for himself that these things are true, but he said he really wasn't interested in knowing anything more than the Bible. I left him to read 2 Nephi 28:29-30, and his wife said she would like to read it and see what it has to say. We are not here to convince people, only to find those who WANT to know and understand gods truth. They are the only ones who can truly HEAR his voice anyway.  |

So next week ill be writing on Tuesday instead of Monday because of transfers!! I may be staying in Bella Vista or going...not sure.
Thanks for all you do :) and for always updating me on the family. You´re such a great example to me of love, service, discipline, and faith!
LOVE YOU
Hermana Hall
