04.03.17 - Conferencia General ♥

Hello friends and family!

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend watching General Conference. I sure know I did. This conference was so incredible! I felt like every talk had something special just for me, and holy smokies were the messages powerful. I was able to watch all of the sessions, but one, in English so I was pretty happy about that. But I believe that the session that we watched in Spanish was more powerful than the others for me. Because I´m still learning the language, there were a few things I didn't understand completely, but the things I understood touched my heart with the Spirit on a whole different level. And the message that President Monson had for all of us... Short, but so powerful. I am so grateful for the opportunity we have every six months to listen to the prophets voice, and hear our Heavenly Fathers voice through him. I know that every talk is divinely prepared for us. I know that in ever talk, there´s something special that we can use to learn, or to grow, or to strengthen our testimonies.

I would share with you my favorite talk, but I don´t have only one... They are all so special to me, and I loved each and every one for different reasons. :)

If you didn't have the chance to watch conference, I would like to invite you to watch it. And if you did watch conference, I would like to invite you to re-watch, or listen to it over the course of the next 6 months until our next conference. I know that you will find new things you didn't hear before, and new answers to new questions.

I am so grateful to be a missionary in this time, and for the opportunity everyday to share His gospel. thank you all so much for your love and support. I hope you know that I pray for you every day! :)

Here is a video about The Resurrection of Jesus Christ if you haven´t seen it yet. Please share it with your friends and families. It´s one of my favorites :)

Love you all so much!!!

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...
