Happy 4th of July!! I even got to see fireworks yesterday! Just kidding it was a power line that kind of exploded but it really did look like fireworks. At first I thought they were and then I realized what was happening.
Last week I went on a temple tour with a recent convert Javiera and her cousin Miriam. First off they´re so awesome! When ever we go over or see them at church Miriam always has some sort of dulce (candy) for us. Oh I loved the spirit there so much. Of course the tour wasn´t actually of the temple rather of the gardens, the buildings around, and then they talked about the temple. There is still such a powerful spirit in the gardens. It was also really relaxing to walk around for a little bit and actually have everybody smile at me and be happy to see me. As we were walking around Hna. Wojciechowski asked me if I wanted to go into the temple, we just went into the entrance but oh how wonderful that was. I immediately felt an amazing comfort come over me and I felt the love of my Heavenly father for me. It was so nice and relaxing. The temple is so powerful and really just the best place ever. I hope I have the opportunity during my mission to be a temple Hermana and conduct those tours.
Alright this week... Well we now have 4 Hermanas in our sector. It´s a lot of fun in the apartment and we all get along really well. The work has gotten harder though. We didn´t really have that many investigators before and now we´ve kind of split the investigators. Hna. Wojciechowski and Hna. Rios have one investigator that is really progressing and he has a baptismal date for the 31st, but other than that we don´t really have anyone. So we´ve been spending a lot of our time and efforts trying to find people that means a lot of walking and knocking. I don´t think I have ever been more tired in my life. Almost everyday this week Hna. Windous and I have been outside for 6+ hours a day walking and knocking. It´s been long and the fruits are few. We´ve realized that if we really want to find new people we need to work through the members. The 4 of us hermanas are planning an activity for the youth to get them involved. There was one house that we knocked the lady came out and I said that we were missionaries and that we were there to offer a prayer, usually at that point people shut doors, windows, yell at us, or just walk away. This lady said come in. I looked at Hna. Windous very confused and was thinking ok did she say what I think she said? what do we do next? haha. Those experiences are very rare but their so amazing when they do happen.
Until Next week. 
I love you all!!!
