Week # 47. Humid Heat!


. 




Hey y'allllllll how was the week?

This week was pretty fire for me. We got to do service in some humid heat that made me long for the dryness of Utah Haha Butttt in doing that service we got two star wars games for basically free!! Pretty close to being the highlight of my week

We got to have exchanges this week and it's always fun to do them because I learned so much! I still feel like I'm fresh out of the MTC every day. At times I think that's good haha

But we got to teach a new friend! It was super cool to be able to see the knowledge of the Atonement immediately take the weight of their shoulders! I know Jesus Christ suffered for us and though Him we CAN have eternal life!

Fun story, I was getting some of my Visa stuff notarized so I had to go get it signed at the UPS store because the do those for some reason haha but anyway I've had a cold for the past few days with a small cough, and ive been needing to get this done so we went inside and I had to cough so bad but i had to hold it in because i didn't want them to think i had covid and throw me out like a leper haha so I barely survived and had a coughing attack as soon as I left the door hahaha

Doctrine and Covenants 84:88 And whoso receiveth you, there I will be also, for I will go before your face. I will be on your right hand and on your left, and my Spirit shall be in your hearts, and mine angels round about you, to bear you up.

I know that when we strive to have the Spirit with us, He will be with us. I'm so grateful for for the opportunity I have to be serving the Lord, knowing that He's with me! I invite you all to do the things necessary to have the Spirit with you!

Don't forget to read the Book of Mormon and say your prayers!

Week # 84. Other cities & conference!

Hello Everyone! This week we had some good experiences so we can just hop right in!  We found that some earlier sisters had worked in a smaller city outside the main city and we decided that we we're gonna go out there and give it a go! I'll just say that was the best decision ever haha we basically got to knock doors for 5 hours straight to a bunch of people that were super willing to hear about Jesus. At one point we got to a house where this lady was washing clothes so we went up, introduced ourselves and asked if we could come back another day because she was busy and she goes, no no! Please sit down! I could never turn away representatives of Christ. My mind was blown!!! So we got to have a super amazing lesson with her right there At another door that we clapped, this older man of probably 80 years old life in him opened his window and we introduced ourselves and then he opened the front door and his son hurried to the door and was like "hey who are you guys!"

Week # 90. Weddings & New Friends!

Olááá Everyone!! We had some miracles this week!! First and foremost, our convert who got baptized two weeks ago, brought his whole family to church!! We were so proud of him!! We immediately went over and talked with them all and our convert goes "so let's mark some lessons right now, and let's have at least two lessons a week." I was so excited!! Not one but two lessons this week!! Then the coolest thing, we got to give him the priesthood :') It really made me remember of when I got it back at 12 and I had so many feelings!! This church is so true!! With the couple that's always so apt to change, we had a stressful week!! So we needed to take them into the city building with like 20 documents for EACH of them so we can get them married! Some how, by a miracle from God, they didnt have any problems!! It all went very smooth:) but then when they asked for my ID I whipped out my Utah Drivers license and they said that wasnt valid and I was like "are you ki...

Week # 88. Three Separate Beings

Image
Olá tudo mundo!! This week we taught a few more reinforcement lessons to our friends who are struggling with the word of wisdom, but these lessons were so good!! For one of our friends we talked about the vision of the tree of life. And when I shared what I thought, I talked about the verse that says: "And after they had tasted of the fruit they were ashamed, because of those that were scoffing at them; and they fell away into forbidden paths and were lost." So from that i talked about how it is the same with us! When we start to get a testimony of something, we learn that not following through with that thing is going down a forbidden path! And then that line "were lost". So SCARY! Basically I told him that now that he is gaining a testimony, he gets to have more blessings but live at a higher standard! And he said he is ready to stay off the Forbidden paths!! Then this week we started teaching a new couple!! Yall. I have never ever had anyone in my mission, pay at...
