I WANT TO WRITE SO MUCH MORE

This week was amazing. Seriously we saw so many miracles. We are of course super pumped about the Sandu family! They want to be baptized!!! We have planned to go over there almost daily so that we can help them prepare. Sora Sandu has started talking about preparing to send her children in missions. They already call the Church "our church". We had a really cool experience at church this week  with the oldest daughter. We were talking about the spirit and prayer and she raised her hand and asked if she could share something. She then told about the first time we went to their house. She said that there was a peace and calm that they all felt. She said that they had never felt that feeling in their home before. When she said this the Spirit was so strong and bore witness to us all of what she said. We are praying for them and we know that God will work through us to help them be baptized! We really want to make sure that the father and son are there for the lessons, because although they have come to church, they haven't been able to come to the discussions because they are always very busy. We know how important it is so their family to progress toward exaltation together! We also want to do better at involving members in our lessons with them, even though they live further away.
This week we haven't been able to meet with Izabella Toth and her family but we have stayed in contact with her. It has been really hard for her and with her father at the hospital she has had a lot more responsibility around the house and at the farm. She has continued to pray every day but is having a harder time recognizing the spirit. They also haven't been able to come to church because of the situation. I know that everything will work out and that this is a part of God's plan and exactly what they need right now. We will continue to pray and have hope for them.
We also met with Sora Meze and Ramona a few times again this week. We have started My Foundation the self-reliance program and the first few lessons have gone great. Since we met her Sora Meze has really started to work hard and earn money for her family. She looks for work wherever she can find it and it has been a great blessing for her family. They still really want to come to church and have been trying every week but have started to loose hope that they will be able to come ever. We have discussed with the members and have been trying to find other options for them to come. They continue to pray ever night and still read together from the Book of Mormon. They are progressing and we want to help them see the change that God has already made for them in their life.
We are working with a lady named Sora Grigore and she is reading every night from the Book of Mormon. We taught her the Plan of Salvation this week and she was really touched by the fact that her husband (who died a year ago) is learning the same things as her and that he is alive in the spirit world. It is so amazing to see these pure doctrines touch the hearts of those we teach. I love to see the change in their eyes and how their spirits recognize what we are teaching.
We had an amazing miracle this week while we were walking on the street! Sora Aplea is a lady that me and Sora Garrett taught but after the first visit she stopped answering. We went back over and her family told us to not come back again. We were super sad but didn't stop praying for her. This week we met her on the street and she told us that her brothers from her church had said that she wasn't allowed to have us over anymore but the fact that she saw us on the street gave her the strength to invite us over again. She even told us that earlier in that day she had been thinking about us and wanting to see us again. We also had a miracle yesterday while we were knocking houses. We met Iliriana and it was the most amazing at-the-door-lesson I have probably ever had. She is soo prepared and she is going to be baptized! 
We have had too many miracles to write about them all! I am so grateful to be a part of this work of salvation! Have a great week!
