This week was full of ups and downs but its all part of the growing process so don´t worry. I think it was on Tuesday or Wednesday, but during companion study we were doing practices and I just could not get the language or what I was supposed to do. So I was really down. And later I was talking with my zone leader (from utah so he speaks english) and he said to read in PMG Christ like attributes and read Patience. So I did and I relized that I needed to be more patient with myself and with the whole learning process. I know that I have the potential to be a good missionary, but for now I just have to be patient with myself and trust in Gods timing. I also relized that I was not getting spiritual food from the book of mormon because my world is in spanish and I dont understand spanish completly. And so because I wasnt reading it in English the spirit wasnt really with me. So this week I started reading the Book of mormon in English for 5 minutes at the end so I could at least get a little out of what I was reading, and honestly, I could feel a difference. I love the BoM and know it is true!!
I really do love it here and love all the people. They are truly amazing. We have one investigator Liz, who is a college student and her best friend is a less active. She has come to church the past 3 weeks! and she has a date set for her baptism and I am so excited!
We also teaching this family and they came to church and they have a 6 year old and a 3 year old and so when we sat next to them at church it reminded me of lilly and made me so happy. The kids here are so adorable!
I know without a doubt I am supposed to be here and that the lord will help me with all my doings. I am so greatful for all of you and your love and support! I know this church is TRUE!!
