Since you guys started to pray for friends, here are some INCREDIBLE things that have happened:
1., A woman I met when I first got here and really connected with called me out of the blue and asked me if we could get together. We did and it was GREAT! We are going to try to maintain contact. She has 4 kids and is really cool.
2., A friend from Florida called and said she is coming to visit me in June. She is one of my favorite people! YEAH!!! I can't wait. And this was even before my weekend posts were published that she decided to come.
3. A woman at Avery's Ballet struck up a conversation with me (in Spanish) and she was very patient with my Spanish. She asked me for my phone number and invited us over when she gets back from vacation in a week. She has a 3 year old daughter and a 9 month old daughter and lives on the next street over.
4. Another woman talked to me at Jaxson's soccer practice. Not a biggie, but YEAH!!!! :)
5. A family from Peru found me on facebook and wants to meet. They have 3 little girls. Who knew they were even here!!!!!!!!???
6. A new family of 4 kids is coming in tomorrow night to live here. Another missionary called me out of the blue and asked if I would host them for dinner on Monday or Tuesday! OF COURSE! And Wed, thurs, fri. and saturday, too! LOL!!!
7. A fellow missionary who doesn't read my blog e-mailed and asked if I wanted to go out for Mexican. Ally and I went and not only was the food OFF THE HOOK, but we had a great time with her. What a blessing!
8. And this weekend we have plans with another wonderful family, some of our friends from language school and ILC, to go to the beach or the zoo - weather depending.
9. I had to call a lady for a phone number and she said, "I've been wanting to have your family over for supper. When would be a good time?" They have 4 children, but unfortunately live like 45 minutes away. but who cares, right?
Our Lord is so faithful! Blowing my socks off!!!!
Is that not amazing? In just a few days, God has done ALL of that on the social front. I am so hopeful and excited. I LOVE PEOPLE!!!
I am also trying to be a lot better of responding to e-mails. I was convicted that I like to get them, but I am not always good at responding. Bare with me. I am really trying to be a better responder. I just prefer the phone!!! :) LOVE YOU ALLLLLLLLL!!!!!
