Sister Macey Gates // Week Thirty-Four

This week was good guys:) We had lots and lots of miracles.  We found 13 new gators, some cute families and a couple others.  Miracle story: So were eating din din at Timoteas house( a member) she fed us Gorditas, bueno like sopes. So i eat it and its super good right? Then after she is like do you want a Torta? And i'm just like sure!!( i had no clue what it was) She comes out with this GINORMOUS sandwich........................................................ I almost started crying. In my head i'm just like you have got to be kidding me. The sandwich was bigger than my face. Hermana Howell could not stop laughing cause she knew i had to eat it all. mean! Then i just prayed and prayed and 10 min later Hermana Beck was like Ill eat the other half! OH MY ANSWER TO MY PRAYER!!!!!!!!!!!! and then because i had to eat the huge sandwich we were late to the next apt. So we got to the apartments and we just felt like we should go to the referral that we got instead of this family. So we go to the house of the referral, his name is Juan Carlos. When he opened the door, he almost started crying. He told us that he just got off the phone with some people in salt lake because no one had visited him yet(this was like 20 min before we came) he just kept telling us how crazy this was that we were there at this exact time and we didn't even know him. He kept on asking us how we feel about this, so basically we bore our testimony a million times and put him on date! Except he couldn't come to church so he cant meet his date this month but i'm so super excited!! During that time that we met with him i just thought to myself, i found my friend. I have been praying and praying to find my friend. It was the most amazing experience. Then the other day, we left a Harvest Blessing with a lady and put her on date too. I absolutely love this work so much.  I totally got yelled at in the parking lot this week it was the hardest thing i have ever had to take. It made me so mad, he just kept telling me how wrong i was, how i shouldn't even be out here cause i don't know anything and all this stuff. All i said to him is that we aren't here to deny the faith that other people have, and that i KNOW that what we are teaching is true, and then walked away. I was so frustrated after but i just had to forgive him cause he doesn't know the truth. I feel so blessed to have the testimony that i do have or else i couldn't have taken everything he said to me. I KNOW this church is true. I know this work is hard, its so hard, but its so worth it. I love the quite " I never said it would be easy, i only said it would be worth it." Its so worth it to spread the love that our heavenly father has por cada uno de nosotros i don't remember how to say that hahhaha but make sure to share your testimony everyday because thats the only way we are going to strengthen it. Love you all!!!!!!!!

Howell asked me to do my best model pose with this flying grocery cart that we saved from hitting a car. This is what we got.
And this is my big Torta......
