estoy en el cyber how bout you

Well they are playing Ed sheeran in this little cyber  and its raining and everyone is writing me about they are getting married and having children and I just feel a lil trunkie. Who even knows if Ed sheeran is still a thing anymore jajajaja I am so behind in the real world its so sad like I know when mormon.org has litterally changed one picture on their website if thats not weird than I dont know what is jaja. I recieved my other mini this week and she is just as sweet as pie. And we are working hard and we are as red as tomatoes in this heat. And we cleaned our whole entire apartment and you really wouldn´t believe that its a missionary apartment. Or that I cleaned it because we all know how un organized I was before the mission jajajja.

But we really saw miracles this weeek. We have been trying to change the apartment and update all of our books or names and stuff that I dont know how to say in english any more and we had to travel to another city and we really just didnt have a lot of time to work. But when we did have time we worked a ton. And I was a little bit nervous going to church on Sunday bec ause I really didn´t know who would show up. All I knew is that I really gave it my all. And when we showed up at church we found 8 investigadores. I literally couldn´t believe it. People that are just so prepared.

We have been focusing a ton on repentence lately. And it really has changed my whole mind set. On how truly important it is. It really blows my mind the whole subject of the atonement and how we can litterally be cure through it. It amazes me how humble christ is. And how he is just like us in the way we feel and that he suffered so much. And how really we don´t have to suffer thanks to him and his amazing sacrifice

“Restoring what you cannot restore, healing the wound you cannot heal, fixing that which you broke and you cannot fix is the very purpose of the atonement of Christ.

I repeat, save for the exception of the very few who defect to perdition,there is no habit, no addiction, no rebellion, no transgression, noapostasy, no crime exempted from the promise of complete forgiveness.That is the promise of the atonement of Christ.” Boyd K Packer

It really is so amazing. And I know now more than ever that only in and through christ we can see miracles in our life. We can heal hearts, we can heal broken wounds and the most amazing and signifigant of all is that though him we can become pure enough to return to our loving heavenly father. Really just brings tears to my eyes. I feel so grateful to be here and to learn more and more about my savior and best friend jesus christ everyday. And to know that I am a daughter of my heavenly father who loves me more than I could ever imagine. I love this work more than I can explain.

I dont have time like always. So peace and blessings

jeans ja ja

happiest birthday to my mudder and my brudder

The first email I recieved today………….

“¡El tiempo ha llegado para planear su regreso a la casa el 02 DE MAYO!“

"The time has come to plan your return home the 2nd of May!"

Every P-day we like to go on double dates with a couple from our branch. Jajajja and today I am wearing jeans for the first time in almost a year and a half. So thats the weirdest thing ever. And my mini is going home to spend time with her family and I will be recieving another. But I already know who she is because we lived together and the begining of the mision! And I couldn´t talk to her because I couldn´t speak spanish jaja but im super stoked because I can talk to her now and she is so sweet.

This week our Branch went to the temple. And really there just aren´t words to describe how amazing it was to see their efforts and desires. They raised money for the past like three months. All of the youth ran around selling treats knocking door to door and the parents worked more hours then needed and they talked about it every single Sunday and made more plans to make more money. And they finally went. And then on Sunday we had a testimony meeting for all of the members who ended up going and it was honestly the most spiritual experience of my mision. Its so amazing to me to see how dedicated these people are. They are so hooked onto the will of God. It makes me feel so overly blessed to be here. And makes me realize how much I took for granted having a temple so close to me. I really have come to love the mission more than I could ever put into words. And I just can´t even wrap my mind around the thought that it is coming to an end. I have never felt so very blessed in my entire life and I have never felt so very close to my Heavenly Father. There is not a doubt in my mind that he is my creator, that he watches my every move and just desires so deeply that we will follow this straight and narrow path that leads to more happiness than we could ever imagine. And I have no time but this week was just the best and I am so happy.

De guatamala a guatapeor

That is my new phrase as of lately. Well I love my mini misionera to death. She is the sweetest thing in the whole world. And she already has her misión call to Buenos Aires, Norte. And she is in LA LUCHA right now because when she gets home from the mini misión she will only have 20 days with her family and then she leaves. And she is now thinking that its not enough time and might go home to spend more time with her fam before the mision. And I´m pretty sad to be honest because she is probably one of the best companions that I have had. And we work so hard and well together. And I love teaching her how to be a missionary. But I know that God has a purpose for everything so everything will work out well.

So we are working with this stellar man named Cesar. And I don´t know if I already talked about him but he is just the greatest. There is this Street in our Area and one day we knocked every door on the Street besides his because… really, they just looked to rich and happy to listen to us. Jajaja, But as everyone on the Street had rejected us we decided to “take the road less traveled” jaja and talk to them. And to our suprise they listened to us! And invited us to lunch and when we went over for lunch they made us the yummiest stake (or steak? No sé) and a huge lunch and we talked to them about the Restauración and this perfect plan. And they mas o menos accepted what we had to say. And they kind of told us that they would go to church on Sunday but not really sure about it. And on Sunday Cesar showed up! And he has gone to church every single Sunday since! And he wants to be baptized and he is quiting smoking and he is just my bestie old man friend. Jajaj I love him so much. So you can pray for him.

And this week we have been watching the Gordon B. Hinkley movie and WOW. #tears its literally the sweetest thing I have ever seen. And it really makes me so grateful to have the knowledge of prophets and this power of God on the Earth today. It just really got me thinking how grateful I am to be here. And how I have found true happiness. That I have learned only comes from sharing the góspel and truly “forgetting myself and going to work”. In these past 16 months I have learned more than in the past 10 years of my life. I have truly come to love my Savior and recognise how important he is in my life. And that with out him I am nothing.

1 John 1:6” If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth:
  7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.
  8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
  9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”

Our Savior is so merciful and so loving, and he really just cares so much for us. And  its so easy to have doubts and to put up barriers and to have fears and to block him out of our lives. And to think that we can do thing whole life thing on our own. But life is so much EASIER if we can just give ourselves to him. If we can just use his perfect atonement in our lives and realize how imperfect we truly are, we can become perfected in him.

I love the mission. And please pray for Cesar and Ariel. because ya know they need some prayers from good ol Utah. jajaj

okay bye

#happy

Well hello mis seres queridos.

I love the misión. I am going to recieve a mini misionary and I am so stoked. Las Termas has so much potencial. SO MUCH. And we are going to make miracles happen. We are teaching THE PERFECT family. And the mom is so ready to be baptized but her husband is in a different city working and they aren´t offically married so we have to wait for him to get back in a month and then they are going to get married and get baptized. And I just feel so grateful to see their progress. It makes me so so hyped to be a missionary. Really I am convinced that this the best área in all of Argentina. I love these people so dang much. AND WE ARE GOING TO RECIEVE BIKES. So yeah buddddddy.

THis week I have been really focusing on the importance of setting goals. But as baptism with out recieving the holy ghost is invalid, setting goals without makes plans is also invalid. #jajaja #mormonjokes But really. I decided to start writing my goals down for this next transfer and Reading them everynight to my heavenly father and telling him my plans. And then when I wake up in the morning I read them to him and ask him to help my fufill these goals. And then they are stuck in my mind allll the day long and I really feel myself changing and reaching these goals. And its just a Golden feeling.

“I am so thoroughly convinced that if we don’t set goals in our life and learn how to master the techniques of living to reach our goals, we can reach a ripe old age and look back on our life only to see that we reached but a small part of our full potential. When one learns to master the principles of setting a goal, he will then be able to make a great difference in the results he attains in this life.” Elder Ballard

I testify of these Golden words. If we don´t set goals in life, we aren´t progressing and we aren´t fufilling our potencial as children of our Maker. SO go set some goals to really progress in your life and then tell your heavenly father about them. Because as he has told us over and over again “for without me ye can do nothing.” So we must team up with him and let him work these miracles in our lifes. All we need to do is show a lil faith and take our own steps and he will carry us and change us into who we need to be. Vaya y escriba en su papelito
