Answers To Prayers

Hi guys!!! This week it started to get hotttt in Uruguay!! At first I thought I was being a baby because 37°C didn't sound that bad to me, but then we looked it up and it's 99°F !!! And the sun really is so strong here that we wear so much sunscreen but then sweat it off by the end of the day hahaha #missionarylife #sunburns 

One day this week we had a lunch with an older woman from our ward. She's 80 years old and will remind you that every time you see her hahaha she really is the cutest ever. As me and my comp were leaving our apartment to head over to her house, my companion stops me and says that I'll need to bring a zip lock bag with me to lunch.... (if you know what I mean). She said that since this lady was super old, she cant cook super well because she has trouble seeing and hearing. I was so scared hahah because I hadn't had a bad encounter with food yet. So I did what any other terrified new missionary would do and prayed my little heart out on our walk over there that I would be able to eat whatever this sweet woman has prepared for us. When we got there we were surprised to see that she had made milanesas, one of my favorite Uruguayan foods, and they actually looked good!! I carefully inspected each bite and i didn't need the bag! Unfortunately my companion must not have prayed beforehand because she cut into her chicken and it was absolutely rawwww on the inside. Thank goodness for the ziplock bags hahaha. While this older member went to go bring us dessert, my comp quickly put the raw chicken in the bag while I prayed again in my heart over the dessert! You guys prayer is so real because she brought us back ice cream and mine was so delicious!! Sadly my comp yet again forgot to pray...and found some bones and rice and hair in her ice cream. Now she's learned her lesson to have the faith of a greenie and pray before everything hahaha!

Here is a scripture that i loveeee:

Alma 33:11 "and thou didst hear me because of mine afflictions and my sincerity; and it is because of thy Son that thou hast been thus merciful unto me, therefore I will cry unto thee in all mine afflictions, for in thee is my joy"

Thank you all for all the love and support!! I love you guys all so so much, write me whenever;);)
