05.01.17 - Transfers!

So Hermana Can and I didn't have transfers this week and we are suuuuper happy about that. We'll be sticking here together until June!!! There is never a dull moment with her. haha teaching is absolutely wonderful, and we're finding new people every week. The work is hastening and I love being a part of it!

This last week we had a conference on Family History... or maybe it was two weeks ago, I truthfully don't remember. But! I want to encourage all of you to get to work on your family history! It's so incredible the Spirit that we can feel, and the protective power that we receive.

I just want to let you all know how much I love you and how grateful I am for all of you. I know that missionary work is the work of God, and that we're living in the latter days. I am so grateful to be here and sharing this message with the people we meet every day.

Things to remember for this week:

1. Every member is a missionary

2. All things work out in the end. Be patient, and don't give up. Sometimes we are only a few steps from a miracle.

3. Jesus Christ is our Redeemer and Savior, and He lives. He lives and He loves us. He loves you, and He knows you. He knows how to help you in the moments when you need it most. Rely on Him, and He will be there every step of the way.

I love you!

Have a wonderful week, and look for something great that happens every day :)

I promise to send pictures next week haha. oopsies.

Love,

Hermana Brinton

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...
