Week 19 (September 26, 2016)

My companion Hermana Haro and me!

This week had its ups and downs as always, but ended really good. My Spanish is getting  better, but is still sometimes difficult to express what I want to say, but lessons 1, 2, and 3 in PMG are getting better the more I share them and practice them which is good because those are the ones we share the most.  And my companion has been a really big help with teaching me how to teach and with my spanish because she speaks very little English. But is really amazing.  She goes home in the  beginning of December so she knows a lot about the gospel.

Last Pday we watched Ice Age 5 with our Zone and I also found out that President aproves certain disney movies for us to watch because our mission is so small that there is nothing to do so 1 time a transfer we can watch a disney movie as a Zone.  I love it so much. But they are in Spanish so I dont understand everything, but enough.

This week was pretty normal as far as teaching goes. We are contacting a lot more and I finally learned a phrase so I can start the contact instead of just going up to someone and inviting them to church. People tend to get a little freaked out.  But now all is well.   We are teaching a less active who is 25 and decided to come back to church. He lives with a nonmember and they want to get married and possible she get  baptized! we will see next month.  But it is so exciting to see people change there lives for the gospel.

It was also womens conference! Which was in Spanish and I understood the jist of things but it was hard to focus on what the spirit was trying to tell me because I was so focused on what they were saying. So I fasted that I can understand general conference. I love conference so we will see what happens.   

I love this gospel so much and am excited to learn what I need to learn so I can be a useful missionary and find the people god wants me to find. I know with out a doubt I am supposed to be here! God loves each and every one of you!    I know the church is true and that the book of mormon is true!

Love,
