Prepare To Meet God…

Hey hey! Another great week here in Jesus Mary! We had transfers this week and I just started my last transfer... how crazy is that?! This week was full of miracles that's for sure! And we also had a mission wide conference because for my last 4 weeks I will have a new mission president! 

Don't got a whole lot of time to write this email so it's gonna be short! Start off with the coolest mircale this week. We were contacting outside walking around and found this dude sitting down. Boy he was not to pleased to see us lol. We talked with him anyways and basically he told us to leave and then started crying and it was super sad. He started talking to us and opened up. He had tried killing himself by overdrinking and had just left his house for the first time after waking up. So we had found him less than 30 minutes after he came out of his house. He came outside to see God's hand and literally in less than 30 minutes we happened to show up! That was such a crazy experience and we were able to talk with him and help him! 

We have had to drop some of the people we were teaching that were interested and it was super sad. But it has given us the opportunity to focus more on different people who are progressing! This last transfer has been pretty difficult and we have been on the look for people who are willing to accept our message. 

Scripture for the week! "For behold, this life is the time for men to prepare to meet God; yea, behold the day of this life is the day for men to perform their labors." Alma 34:32. Loved this scripture! The mission has been the best decision I've made in my life and has helped me to understand who my Savior is. I've learned so much out here and have cherished every moment! I know the gospel changes lives and helps all of us to become better people!

Milagros…

Buenos días a todos!! I hope everyone is well! These last two weeks were a lot of fun and filled with so many miracles!! 

We had so much success out in Jesús María!! And the miracles all came while we were in exchanges! We did 2 back to back and I stayed in the area both times. The first day I was with Elder Spencer from Arizona! He's in his training and is killing it!! That was the first time he's gone street contacting in his mission! We had a lot of fun and it was crazy. From my last email we had straight rejection the whole time but this exchange with E. Spencer we found 6 new people to teach and aside from that we got 4 numbers and 2 references from people that rejected us! It was a crazy day!!! Then I had an exchange with Elder Gomez! He's one of the assistants and as well we saw a lot of miracles!! We went up to Jesús María again and grinded and visited some of the people that we met the day before and then went and visited the reference the lady gave us. We knocked on her door and Paty answered! She was a little weirded out at first but let us in. We talked with her for a bit and basically she told us maybe she needs to join our church and that it was a sign that we had passed by! Super cool and we are now trying to teach her fam as well!!

An Elder from the Dominican Republic got to our mission and we got to be his comps for a couple days! He lost his suit case and had to wait for them to find it. I forgot how funny their Spanish was hahaha. After hearing mexican Spanish for so long its weird to hear other accents. He was super cool and a lot of fun to be around! We also had leadership council and they announced we are having a mission conference this week!!! I'm super pumped! But I will also be giving my farewell testimony with a couple several other missionaries I will be going home with! That's super weird. President asked me and a couple of the other elders that are leaving to also bare our testimonies in leadership council so we did that and it was super sad but very cool experience! Also teaching a family that's lives like down the street from us! They are from Venezuela!! Super cool fam as well (Pic below) but they are super sweet and she told us she has some family members who are members in the church! We also got to go hut golf balls at some range!!! That was a lot of fun and I sure have missed golf!

That's the run down of my last 2 weeks! I'm loving every second out here. There is nothing better than being a missionary and sharing this great message of Jesucristo! Feel free to reach out to me I'd love to hear from you guys!!! Have a great week!
