 January 20, 2025

Hola Familia,

A week of miracles because of faith IN JESUS CHRIST! 

We had an FHE about the life of a missionary! It was a big success! 106 members came! We put on a play! They got a mission call! Learned a language and we ate tacos! It was magical!!

We had interviews with prez. So amazing! 

zone conference was absolutely amazing. And Elder renlund is coming in March! So crazy! 

ANA AND ADRIANO GOT BAPTIZED! The best birthday presents ever, and I am never going to forget it. They were so so so happy.  Ana's oldest son actually baptized them too. I LOVE FAMILIES! The longer I am a missionary the more I want my friends to enter into a covenant with our heavenly father! ️ 

I TURNED 20! Thanks to everyone for the bday wished!! My companion woke me up at 5:30 to sing me 'las mañanitas'. I got to run 4 miles! And a member surprised me with flower and a cake. All the sisters surprised me with crepes for lunch!  And we went to olive garden! best day

our friends Andres, Andres Jr, Jose, and Jessy all came to church! They are the dads and the sons we are teaching! Coolest people ever!!

a friend came to church because of a pass along card!!!! MIRACLE 

Helaman 15:5-10

5 And I would that ye should behold that the more part of them are in the path of their duty, and they do walk circumspectly before God, and they do observe to keep his commandments and his statutes and his judgments according to the law of Moses. 

6 Yea, I say unto you, that the more part of them are doing this, and they are striving with unwearied diligence that they may bring the remainder of their brethren to the knowledge of the truth; therefore there are many who do add to their numbers daily.

 7 And behold, ye do know of yourselves, for ye have witnessed it, that as many of them as are brought to the knowledge of the truth, and to know of the wicked and abominable traditions of their fathers, and are led to believe the holy scriptures, yea, the prophecies of the holy prophets, which are written, which leadeth them to faith on the Lord, and unto repentance, which faith and repentance bringeth a change of heart unto them— 

8 Therefore, as many as have come to this, ye know of yourselves are firm and steadfast in the faith, and in the thing wherewith they have been made free.

 9 And ye know also that they have buried their weapons of war, and they fear to take them up lest by any means they should sin; yea, ye can see that they fear to sin—for behold they will suffer themselves that they be trodden down and slain by their enemies, and will not lift their swords against them, and this because of their faith in Christ. 

10 And now, because of their steadfastness when they do believe in that thing which they do believe, for because of their firmness when they are once enlightened, behold, the Lord shall bless them and prolong their days, notwithstanding their iniquity

Sorry it's long, BUT I want you to read it and think if you are firm and steadfast in your faith like it talks about here. 

Les amamos mucho

Weekly Journal recap

Monday: So basically, the FHE was so so fire! We had 106 people come. That is more than at sacrament. We put on a play it was absolutely insane. Then everyone opened their own mission calls and headed to the MTC! Where they learned a new language and taught a lesson! then we ended the night in the sacrament room and heard 3 beautiful testimonies of the members and sang Called To Serve. The night was very magical and very unforgettable. The joy and the love we felt with the ward was very amazing. And after we had tacos! people stayed until about 9:30! Such an amazing night!

Tuesday:

Wow what a great day today was. I got up and went to work out, but my stomach was hurting pretty bad. I only ate dinner and breakfast today, but I survived. District Council today honestly was such an answer to a prayer. This week was honestly kinda a tough for everyone. But as we started district council off with listing off miracles, I began to see that I should be more grateful and focus more on the good. We then started reading about hope in PMG. It was amazing and so so powerful. Hope is abiding confidence and not wishful thinking. He is a God of promise keeping. Mormon 9: 19-21. What powerful verses focused on the miracles we get from the savior. I also got my birthday package, and I am SOSOSOS excited! We also had interviews with president. HEALING FOR THE SOUL. We talked a lot about the zone and stuff. And then he just went on about how he feels that I am so much at peace and how he tells other missionaries about my story, and how great of a legacy I have built to help other sisters. Which is what I have wanted to do. And now I can help them without even knowing it. And we just talked a little bit about my struggles. And I just started crying telling him that I want to do better and I know that I can do better. I just have been thinking a lot about an email that one of my coaches from XC sent me about how I didn’t give it my all my junior year. And I don’t want that to be me. I want to be senior year me. Giving it everything I have. Leaving it all hear. because I don’t want to have regrets. And I dont know president just understands me, and I know that is becuase God communicates through him. And we also talked about companions. And how 1. we need to tell them we love them and 2. show them we love them. And that that is the secret for successful companionships for right now and for my eteranl companion. Just so so good all of it. And at the end of it all he told me that he feels like I am his adopted daughter. And I told him that he was my adopted dad. And my visit with sister jones was amazing! I just talked to her about my desires to be a better teacher and everything. It really helped because what I learned from her is what I applied in a lesson today and I felt that my teaching was much better and different than before. then we had dinner with the elders, and they started calling me Big Rig which is really funny. And then we went to visit our friends! Just a super good day. I needed. And as I prepare to go to the temple my heart is full of joy to be able to enter into the house of the lord and feel of his love!

Wednesday: crazy day! I went on exchanges with Sister Joel. She is a newer missionary who is only on her 3rd transfer. She is a amazing. It was a great day. And a nice reset button 

Thursday: ZONE CONFERENCE DAY! It was a good day. To be honest I am not actually sure what I learned. Not my favorite Zone conference, but elder lynch brought me my package from the office which was amazing! It was good to see all of my friends and we had some good trainings to help with our missionary work. After we ate dinner with 2 hnos from the church! They are so funn. Dani Lopez and Kevin. What clowns.and after that we literally had 1 lesson and then went and played volleyball with the elder's quorum. It was great. 

Friday! 

BEST DAY OF MY LIFE! Hna zavala woke me up at 5:30 singing to me! Then I ran 4 miles. Then hna Alalcon surprised me with flowers and a cake. Then we had a sister lunch and they made me crepes. Then we made bap programs at the last minute (not the best idea). Then we went to olive garden with some missionaries, and I got chocolate with bread for free because of my bday. AND THEN ana and Adrian got baptized. Probably my favorite baptism of all! I did indeed cry. I am so proud of them! And then we had cake with the ward as they tried to sing to me hahaah!
