Hey my beautiful family! How is everyone doing?

Well I would love to tell you about some of the hugeee miracles we saw this week!!

First off, with the 15 year old girl we found- Fanny- we went to visit her, and she told us right off that her and her spouse had started praying together. She told us that before, they were fighting all the time, and now they are not fighting at all!! She told us that he had been blessed with more work, and since he wasn't at home every night, they would call each other and say a prayer over the phone. She was excited to give the first prayer, and didn't need any reminders of how to start of finish and she said it perfectly. It was such a tender mercy for me and Hermana Mills to see. It was such a testimony builder of the importance of couple and family prayer. I know that it really does make the biggest difference. Sometimes its hard to take the time to get the family together, but it will make the biggest eternal difference.

The second miracle we saw was yesterday. Me and Hermana Mills had been fasting specifically for an investigator named Marialena (the woman who told us she would be moving in a week or two, right before her baptism). We have been praying so hard that she would be able to be baptized. And after our ward council, right before church, we ran to pick her up, and right when we saw her, she immediately told us that she would not be moving to Temixco! She will only be moving right down the street!! I stood there, trying not to cry because the works of our Heavenly Father are so great. We are so so grateful and privileged to help her continue to prepare for her baptism, and I could not be more excited!!

Everything is going great. We are seeing the blessing from our endurance. And I know we will only continue to see more!

Scripture of the week (Sorry ive been so bad with this lately): 3 Nephi 13: 31-33

"Take no thought saying what shall we eat? or what shall we drink? or wherewithal shall we be clothed? For your Heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of these things.
But seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness and all these things shall be added unto you."

These past couple weeks we have been talking a lot with our investigators about the importance of putting God first- For example our prayers, scripture reading, and church attendance. And I know that if we do, he really will take care of everything else. He is soo willing to bless us if we can just show a little bit of faith and put him before everything else.

I love you all! Hope everything is great!
Con muchooo amor,
Brookie Cookie aka Hermana Chynoweth
