A Flooding Apartment

July 18th 2016:

Why did the train engineer choke?
He forgot to "choo-choo" his food.

Our apartment started flooding this morning because some tube in the washer came out. So we did what any missionary would do- we prayed! and the water stopped! 

Well family and friends I don't have too much to update you on this
week. At least you'll get a joke. ;)Sister Alder has had really bad
back pain and it has prevented us from working. I've had a really hard
time staying in the apartment, while knowing I only have a couple of
weeks left on my mission. But, if there is anything I have learned on
my mission it is that God is in every detail of our lives, and he has
a reason for everything. I'm just trying to figure out what it is.
Pleas keep Sister Alder in your prayers, so we can return to work!

Carlos and Mercedes Riviera are progressing really well! I love them.
We taught the Plan of Salvation and Mercedes made the comment, "I have
known this all along, and the lesson just put it into words." I just
wanted to jump on the couch and shout "YES, YES YOU HAVE!" They are so
prepared, and if everything goes as planned they will be baptized on
the the 6th of August. We have taken a couple of members with us to
their lessons, and after the lesson one of the members told us she had
a dream about Carlos and Mercedes and in the dream they even had the
same name. She said they looked so familiar when she met them, and the
Rivieras even mentioned they recognized the member. But, neither of
them could figure out why they looked familiar. While the member was
telling us about her dream, I was getting the cold chills. Ah the
gospel is true. That's all I have to say!

You know you are a sister missionary when.... Everything between your
shoulders and knees hasn't seen the sun since you left home. :)

Hope y'all have a fabulous week :)

Diligence.

I cheated on Rita's :(

Well family and friends the time is coming. Thank you for all the love and support you have given me. It really means a lot to me. I would love it if you could be at the airport when I get home. I fly in on August 9th at 12:45. I will be in terminal 2. 

I think that is all the info you will need. Just email me if you have any questions. :)

I love you all!

Sister J
