04.10.17 - (I couldn't think of a subject, but this is for the peeps) ;)

This past week was wonderful, we contacted lots of people and we have a couple people set for a baptismal date! The only thing they need to do is attend church, pray, read the scriptures, and learn for themselves. I love being a missionary and getting to help others come to Christ. And I especially love when they look back on their lives- at the beginning of our lessons, and now where we´re at in our lessons, and how much they´ve progressed and changed in that time. I love it. LOVE LOVE LOVE IT. It´s the greatest. I love getting to see the spirit working in their hearts and lives, and then when they recognize that spirit. It´s the best.

I love getting to see how much I've changed…. I feel like I was a pretty good person before my mission, but now, I just want to be even better in every aspect of my life. I love everyone, and I am so happy all the time. The love for the people here that I feel is indescribable, and I know that it´s the love of our Heavenly Father. I´m learning more and more each day just how much He loves us, and there truly are no words to describe the love that our Heavenly Father has for us. We cannot comprehend the magnitude of the love He has for us. I love Him so much, and I am so grateful for the love that He offers me. He is my best friend, and has helped me so much in times of need and times of trouble.

Love you all, hope you have a splendid week!

Love,

Hermana Brinton

7.3.17 - Independence Day

Hello Everybody! These last couple of weeks have been pretty great, and super busy. We're still tryin to get to know our area-it's pretty big haha. But it is super beautiful here, and I love it. LOVE IT. Tezoyuca is incredible, and super green. Basically it's the greatest. We had our Conference this last week and it was wonderful. The Spirit was super strong and I am loving being a missionary. I have learned so many things, and especially the last few weeks as a trainer, I feel like I've learned even more. My testimony and love for missionary work continues to grow, and I am more and more grateful each day for the opportunity to be here. We have challenges, but we grow so much more from them, and always come out on top. It has been an incredible process for me to see how much my companion, Sister Diaz is already progressing in her testimonies and being. She was already an incredible young woman when she came, but now, and with ea...

01.16.17 - Changes!

Hello everyone!! I hope all of you are doing splendidly. I'm doing wonderful! I´m loving my mission so much! I love the people, I love the food, I love the mountains we have to climb everyday. The literal ones, and the spiritual ones. I am so grateful for this sacred time for me to learn, grow, and teach. Inviting others to come to Christ has been so incredible, because everyday we do it, my relationship with my Father in Heaven grows more and more. Changes! So last night, we got a phone call from our AP, and he let us know that we are having changes. I don´t know why, but I´m moving areas. I´m headed back up to Cuernavaca with some other missionaries. When I get more details, I let you all know why haha :) This last week was an awesome one! Lots of teaching, and lots of growing. We also discovered that my companion has low blood pressure, and bad circulation. So she needs to get some shots for it I guess... She´s been complaining of her arms and legs f...

2.15.17 - Hola Amigos!!

Hello everybody! So sorry I didn´t get a written email sent out last week. It was kind of crazy. And the time we`re given just flies by haha. We are doing awesome here in good ol Chilpo. I love my area so much and I love the people. Everyday it`s getting a little bit hotter, and the work just keeps getting better and better. I love getting to serve the Lord at this time, and I love the people I´m serving with. Just lots of love!! :) And the food is wonderful. hahha at this point, I can handle the spicy foods a lot better than my companion... and she´s from El Salvador. I´m not entirely sure how spicy they like the food there, but she doesn´t like too much spicy here. So that keeps it interesting :) Oh my heavens, one of the members here makes tacos in the evening for a living and hoooooly smokies. Literally the best tacos I have ever had in my whole life. SO GOOD. just had to share that with you :) The past couple of weeks have been wonderful. We´ve...
