Hello my fellow fam!
How is everyone doing?
Looks and sounds like its pretty cold there in Utah. Thankfully it warmed up a
lit bit this last week. But I think the cold from the last week got me. :( I got super sick with some nasty congestion
and sinus stuff. I was out for awhile
but I am feeling much better. Let me
tell you its pretty different being sick when you don't have momma bringing you
apple juice hehe :)
We had a great week with
Yoselin. We had a wonderful FHE with the West family and we are going to have
another one tonight! We also had Natalia
who is a laurel come to a lesson and she was so amazing in it! Natalia is also a convert so she shared a
great testimony. This week our focus is on having Yoselin talk to her parents
about baptism because she has to have their permission prior to baptism.
Chayo and Carlos have
set their date to move the 23rd of January. It is going to be so strange to not have them here.
We typically teach them 3-4 times a
week. But to look at it positively we
get to find new people that are searching for the gospel. They will always be apart of me though.
We had Missionary
Leadership Council this week. We talked
a lot about the importance that repentance precedes baptism. Our mission for the last couple of months has
been one of the top for baptisms but we really want to make sure these people
are converted. Our focus was teach
Repentance, Baptize Converts. These
meetings are wonderful and filled with the Spirit.
This week I got to go on
exchanges with Sister Kennelly. Now this
sister is awesome! I learned a lot about
responsibility. She wants to makes sure
she is always exactly on time. She has
even calculated how long she can take in the shower every morning. I love spending time with sisters and learning
from their great examples.
The New Testament is
AWESOME! I haven't gotten too far in it because I am really trying to
understand it but I absolutely love it. It is amazing to read how the Savior teaches. I am so grateful for our Savior Jesus Christ
and His perfect example. "He walked
the roads of Palestine, healing the sick, causing the blind to see and raising
the dead." How can you become
closer to your Savior? For me the New
Testament is awesome at this time of my mission.
You are all great! I love you all!
