Hermana Charly Flake : The Sun'll come out..... TOMORROW

Did you also get that weird news report about the eclipse and the 3 days of darkness? Apparently the sun wasnt going to come out today but thankfully it did.I was singing Annie last night just to make sure.

This week was a marvelous one! We are working so much with the members! I am in mission heaven. I've never loved so much being able to participate in Ward Council and plan together Ward mission activities. Our mission leader thought of a great idea of putting up a projector in the main parks of the city with mormon messages and videos of Christ. He says that if we cant get the people of this city to come to Crists church by knocking on doors, we are going to bring the church to THEM in a more interesting way. I love the idea. We are going to start it next month.

We went through our area book this week and swept through every investigator. At the end, we were left with NONE. We had to drop all of them cause they weren't keeping there commitments. Then we started by scratch. We are asking all the members for referrals and we recieved 13 this week! They all want to work with us and we are finding so many more people to teach that way!

One of those is Evelyn, who came to church with us on Sunday and loved it! She is 13 and the young womens took her in like one of their own. I love members. Did I already say that?

Oh yeah, one of the members in our ward is a world championship boxer! her name is Cecilia Comunales Marquez, but she is known around the world as "La Reina" or "The Queen" haha she is the humblest boxer I know! She comes to church dolled up in high heels and make up, you would never think that just last week she won the world boxing championship. We had dinner at hher house the other day, I love their family!

Now we are leaving the apartment every morning to go running and do exercise at the park. I think that will help balance out all the goodies that my comp bakes for me. She is a chef! What a blessing!
