Hello family! 

Can you believe it's October already?! Time is just flying! I hope everyone is doing well, you're all a little quiet...

This weekend we had General Conference. It is every April and October that we have the opportunity to listen to messages from the Prophet and the Twelve apostles and other leaders of the Church. It was so great! I always love General Conference but what I love most about it is that I can think of questions I have about my life or my mission or my plans after the mission and no matter what, my questions are ALWAYS answered. Always! Such a blessing.

There was one talk that when I heard it, my thoughts automatically went to you guys. Here's the link if you'd like to watch it.

Other than that we've had a really great week! Hermana Southwick got here on Wednesday and we have just had the best week! Since I'm the only one here that knows the people and the area I started the week really stressed out but the elders that came in are really hardworking and I know we're going to see great things here.
Last night was had such a big miracle! We were walking around a trailer park and saw a man who was working in his yard, naturally we asked if he needed help and without hesitating he said yes! No one ever says yes. He let us in the gate and handed us a tool and gave us a pizza box to kneel on and we went right to work! He asked who we were and we got the opportunity to tell him about what we do and also to ask him about his background, family, religion, all of that. The service only took about 10-15 minutes and he let us wash our hands and invited us to come back and teach him, his wife and his kids this week! Such an unexpected miracle. I love times like that!

This coming week we're planning to have two baptisms! Two little girls we've been teaching forever and a lady named Margarita that we just found last month. All three of them are so ready to be baptized and so great, I feel so lucky to have been a part of this time in their lives!

Don't forget to go see Meet the Mormons! I want to hear all about what you guys think!

Love,
Hermana Granado
