11/19/2018 Sleeping through the Restoration...

Buenooooo!

Highlights:
-Last pday we went to the Science and Industry Museum but when we got there it was closing so we didnt get to do a ton... but it was so cool and one day I'll have to go back!! 

-Our Bishop LOVES the family that we have been teaching, so this week they came to the youth activities and we rode the bus with them to it. They really enjoyed it! The girls made icecream and Emilio played soccer (I cant tell you how bad I wanted to play with them....) then Obispo took them home. Well on the way home the oldest daughter who is 17 told him that the day her father met the missionaries he was SO MAD, but he felt the peace we brought so he let us come back for a lesson, then Hermana Page and I showed up my second day here and the rest is history, ever since he has been a lot nicer and actually talks to his kids, I mean there still is problems but this gospel definetly blesses families, and I can testify of that! 

- Our recent convert Avelina is still Loca, but she told us we can put her Christmas tree up for them! They werent able to come to church yesterday bevause they were out of town. I actually missed pushing John in his wheel chair all the way to church! Then carrying it back upstairs three stories after church is over! Next week though (:

- We went on exchanges this week and one of the Sister Training Leader Trainers (Sister APs) came to Chi 5 with me for the day. Sister Biesinger is such a great missionary and I learned so much from her, it was a great exchange! While we were waiting to exchange back at the church there was a big missionary farewell for an Elder who will be going to Peru! It was practically a ward party! They gave us some cake and it was so good!! 

-I played the piano this week for the primary program in sacrament meeting, the kids were so funny as usual and super cute! They also announced the first himno and then realized they had no one to play it so they go "Hermana Cutler can you play this song for us?" So I had to go up and play it! But I have never played it in my life / ever heard that song in my life so that was a fun experience! I guess I need to learn how to play every single song in the himno so if that ever happens again I can be prepared! 

Quotes of the week from those we teach:
**John starts snoring**
John!

*Didnt work, he slept through most of the restoration!*

Sara- 11 year old

Why so late?!

Avelina where are you from?
Soy texahana. So im from texas! Not mexico, my parents are from mexico but me no! 

**we asked Maria to say the prayer for our lesson with them**
Maria: "Emilio say the opening prayer" 
Emilio: "Dear God, bless the food, Amen"
Hermana Page: "Where is the food?!" 

Well I hope you all have a great week and a happy thanksgiving!!! Im thankful for this opportunity I have to serve the Lord in Chicago Illinois!
