My heart is full of gozo(joy) and gratitude.  Fun things about Mendoza that I haven{t had the chance to include: there is a man that whenever we see him in the streets with doesn't happen often but now and then he stops and salutes us and says in very good English queen of queens!  One time he even bowed.  He has been around for a while and seems any Hermana that has served in this area knows the Queen man, well Queen man's name is
Bolvia.  And this week we happened to run into him, we have visited with him shortly before, but this week made sure to invite him to church.  He said he was coming and our hopes where he would.  Sunday
morning sure enough Queen man walked in to catch sacrament meeting. Turns out he is a less active member and was gladly welcomed back by several members after the meeting.  It was beautiful and a little miracle.

  This week we had our Baptisms of dear Margarita and Diana.  A very very special baptism.  Two dressed in white Heavenly Father's daughters with big smiles.  Both families complete there and supporting, a miracle of the baptism too.  The most people I have also ever seen at a baptism.  Such a supportive and great ward!  It was
beautiful and the spirit touched all who were present. Minerva, a contact that we found a week ago.  When we visited with her she cried as she said the closing prayer and we counted it as a miracle for the day knowing something was special about her.  Well this week for our visit to return she began with a question, now I
want to know what my dream I have been having means.  She continued to tell us how she had been dreaming of a large temple. . Hermana and I looked at each other, eyes huge, and pulled out a picture of the DR
temple.  Yes she said that's the one!  Miracle.  Its amazing how Heavenly Father prepares people.  Sunday 
morning we passed by in a car with a member for her to go to church, she was dressed and ready.  She soaked it all up and  couldn't wait for our return visit which we had yesterday afternoon.  She was touched by the spirit, the spirit does all the teaching.  I am thankful for good Hermana's that will come to this area and help her in her process of learning how she can return to her Heavenly Father.
