Vibras buenas...

Hey hey! How's everyone doing? This week was great with a lot of crazy events to say the least hahaha. Happy valentines day as well! 

I don't got a whole lot of time to write but we had a great week of teaching! I think our number one struggle is getting our investigators to come to church. It's like everyone here works all day everyday without any days off I swear. We had some great lessons with Norma, Anselio and Miriam, and a new family we just started teaching, and some other lessons. This area is by far my favorite area I've had on my mission just because of how much work there is to do here. Everyone is still progressing and hopefully we can start getting them to church! Keep them in your prayers🙏 

A quick scripture I read this week is "And now I would that ye should be humble, and be submissive and gentle; easy to be entreated; full of patience and long-suffering; being temperate in all things; being diligent in keeping the commandments of God at all times; asking for whatsoever things ye stand in need, both spiritual and temporal; always returning thanks unto God for whatsoever things ye do receive." Alma 7:23. This was a great reminder to me to always give it my best, to always be happy, positive, and full of patience. And always remembering to give thanks to my Heavenly Father for all that he does for me! I've learned when things get tough you just gotta buckle down, enjoy the ride and be patient! 

I know this emails was super short but love you all, have a great week!

La Obra Misional...

Hola hola! ¿Cómo están? I hope everyone is doing great as always! This week we had transfers and we just finsihed the 8 week transfer. Im staying another in this area and I couldn't be more excited! We got 6 new zone leaders this transfer and there's 12 of us. They shut down 5 areas in the mission and white washed a lot of areas. A lot of crazy transfers this transfer but surprisingly I'm staying in my area again! I'm super excited becuase the progress our area has had in the last couple weeks is crazy! We had 4 people come to church this week! I'll talk more about all the cool miracles we saw this week down below! 

To start off! We put Anselio, Miriam, and Norma on date for March 5th!! Anselio and Miriam are super awesome and we've taught them almost every night this week. They have accepted everything we've taught and believe it's all true! The one struggle with them is that it's been hard to get them to church because he works. I would ask you to keep them in your prayers! Norma is awesome we've been teaching her for a while and then she fell off the face of the earth. We got back into contact with her and had such a special lesson with her. We read the introduction to the BoM with her and then brought up baptism. She felt like she wants to be baptized but she doesn't want to mess up. We invited her to pray with us and in the prayer she asked to be able to know if it's true and in that moment she paused and then started to cry and she said after the prayer she's never felt that way before. We testified that it was the spirit testifying to her! It was such a great lesson and we put her on date for March 5th as well and hope her family will accept as well!! Keep them in your prayers please!!!!

Overall we have seen miracles after miracles in our area and I truly have developed so much more love for the people we teach. Nothing is greater than being a missionary. Nothing gets better than being a part of the greatest work here on the earth. I love being a missionary and will cherish everything I've learned and know I will apply it through out my life.  It's all possible through my Savior Jesus Christ that I can become a better person every day and become a more determined disciple of Jesus Christ! I love my Savior!

I hope everyone can have a beautiful week and look for the good in everything! Hasta la próxima!!
