Semana 3

Hola,

I hope you all are doing well! Birthday shoutout to Zak, happy late birthday bro! Hope ya had a great one! I’m praying for you guys always! 

Everything is good here! I’m half way done here at the mtc which is crazy because it feels like it’s flying by! The spirit is always so strong and it’s making me so pumped to head out into the field! 

This week all the new mission presidents are coming to the mtc to be trained and that means that the prophet and 12 apostles are coming!! I hope I get to see some apostles! My teacher, Hermana Nelson, is the prophets granddaughter so we are hoping she brings him in for show and tell! 

We have recently started this thing called TRC’s where we have to teach a native speaker and answer any of their questions about the church. I have really had to rely on my savior because I know I can not do that alone. They have been going really well which I’m so excited about! I am continuing to understand that as I worry about others and their needs, everything falls into place!

I am loving my Hermanas and mi districto! We are calling ourselves the “districto de óro” (gold district) because I’m convinced we are the best haha. I know that God is aware of my needs and has sent these amazing people to me to inspire, love, help, and teach me. I love going to the temple with them every week. They are truly becoming my family away from my family haha. 

Some fun things that happened this week included: 

      -a sleepover with my Hermanas on our floor

      -making gospel parodys set to pop songs

      -temple trip with my district 

I loved reading in the Book of Mormon in Alma 26. This is quite possibly my fav chapter in the Book of Mormon. Alma is describing how he taught people in the streets, in their homes, and in their churches. They were spit upon, cast out, and beat up. Right after explaining this he says, “Now have we not reason to rejoice? Yea, I say unto you, there never were men that had so great reason to rejoice as we...” how amazing is that? Even after all their trials, they rejoiced because this is the work of the lord! This gospel is a gospel of hope, joy, and love! I’m so happy to be apart of this great work! I encourage all of you to read Alma 26 this week. (you can thank me later haha) 

Te amo mucho! Yo sé que Jesucristo vive y el nos ama! Si pedimos, Jesucristo se ayudará. Nos hablamos pronto! 

Adios,
