04.24.17 - Press Forward With Faith and Steadfastness in Christ

Hello friends and family!!!

We're doing great here in Mexico. every week is a little hotter, and the raining season will be coming here pretty quick.  :) this last week was pretty wonderful. Every week just keeps getting better and better. I love this work so much, and that I get to be a missionary in this time.  

This last Sunday, we got to talk in sacrament meeting about missionary work, and what Gordon B. Hinckley wrote about it in "The Teachings of Gordon B. Hinckley", and it was pretty great. I want to encourage all of you to read his book... it's wonderful :) I love it. After speaking, we sang "I'll go where you want me to go" and yours truly got to play the piano. haha Wasn't the first time playing in our ward, but yeah. It was lots of fun :) hahaha. I am loving the field and getting to serve and teach with Hermana Can. She is such a sweetheart, and we teach great together. 

This week, we shared the video from Easter with one of the less actives in our ward, and we talked about what Jesus Christ did for us by performing the Atonement... He did so much for us to make it possible to return home to our Heavenly Parents one day... and he did it with so much love. I can't wait for the day when I get to heaven, and I can thank him for making it possible for me to be clean and free from my sins. And for making it possible that I can live with my family for eternity, and that I can have an eternal family one day. The Spirit was so strong in that lesson, and really testified to me of all that he did, and the love that he offers us everyday. I am grateful for my Savior and Redeemer. And  I am so grateful for the love that he has for me. 

Always remember our Savior, Jesus Christ, and all that he did.  

I love you so much and I hope you all have a wonderful week! Stay strong in the face of adversity, and press forward with faith :)

Lots of loves from Mexico!

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...

01.30.17 - Don't Forget to Pray

Hola de Mexico!  I hope you all are doing great :)  This past week was pretty awesome. We had a meeting with our Presidente and he shared some incredible things with us.  It was for my generation of missionaries, just to see how we're doing, and to give us some more advice on how we can be the best missionaries we can be.  I also got to play the piano for it, both were hymns I had never heard of before so that was an adventure. A very rough one at that. But the meeting was incredible. I learned so many things, and how to become an even better missionary.  My testimony of prayer continues to grow and grow more each day, and I know without a doubt that He hears us when we pray with our hearts.  I am so grateful for the love and comfort we can receive by offering our hearts to him.   My companion and I had some awesome, and super spiritual bonding moments this past week which is always the greatest thing ever.  I love her to pieces and I...

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...
