This week I went to 5 fiestas. Maybe more. Hey, you have to go where
the people are if you want to find investigators! #party I don't think
I have ever eaten this much in my life.. People take really good care
of us in this ward!
Anyways, this week was perfect! Even the throw up
I cleaned out of a couch didn't get me down! Even though we don't have
that many investigators right now and the ones we do have with
baptismal dates, we can only teach once a week..and 3 of our other
investigators moved away/dropped off the face of the earth, we still
are working hard to find more people! I have just felt really grateful
lately. Sometimes I just want to cry tears of gratitude for how much
help I've received with my Spanish.
It is incredible how much the
atonement can make up for all of our weaknesses.. Even with a really
white girl like me who just really needs to understand people even
though it seems impossible. Sometimes I will listen to people explain
things and I can't understand how it's happening, because I'm
understanding words and concepts I've never learned, and that's when I
know the Spirit is taking over completely. It is so humbling to have
this calling.
This week in our zone conference, I learned from President Mortensen
about the Book of Mormon. Blew. My. Mind. I wish you all could have
been there... This chalk board doesn't explain any of it.. But it
literally was the coolest thing I've ever heard in my life. I'll have
to explain it to you all when I come home.
I just want to testify to all of you that the Book of Mormon will fix
your problems. It has the power to change everything. Let me know if
you want to know more about how! I have never in my life felt so
privileged to be a missionary for the Church of Jesus Christ on the
Earth. I love you all!!! ❤️💕❤️😘

PS- we had another surprise meeting last night where I got to see all
my friends, and it's crazy how much I love the missionaries in this
mission. I didn't know I could love so many people so much!
