This week I gave a talk in sacrament and la gente (the people) were a
little tired so I did what they do in sacrament meeting at BYU-H and started
with an ALOHAAA. Nobody had ever seen anything like it apparently haha and now
they all say Aloha when they see me. What have I done?! haha jk.
Oh family and friends, how are you all?
That picture you guys sent of Kyra's plaque on
top of mine is too funny. She's literally "piggybacking" me haha.
Parted but never truly apart! So proud of you Keeks!
Also, how crazy that Emily and Erica have
already left? Take care of Philly for me, Erica! And can't wait to talk Spanish
with you Emily and make Erica celosa (jealous) mwahaha.
Ashbabyyyy happy birthday! 7 already, va
creer. Crecen tan rapido... (they grow up so fast)
So this week we had an amazing experience! We
went to the temple as a zone with our investigators and recent converts. There
were 2 buses full of us! Almost 100 investigators came. It is SUCH a blessing
to have the temple nearby. The R family came and C especially had a
great experience. They were able to enter the temple lobby and spend some time
in there to ponder and feel the spirit. The mission president and temple
president and their wives gave talks on the temple and we gave mini tours for
them on the grounds. It was way fun! And I was super grateful for the
opportunity to be there to receive the spiritual strength and peace that comes
from being at la casa del SeƱor (the house of the Lord).
Also, we had intercambios (exchanges) again. Hermana Dumay
went to Las Americas (donde nacio) (where she was born) and Hermana Hale came to Las Americas. She's
on of our lideres de las hermanas (leaders of the sisters?). I learned a lot from her! She has the
constant companionship of the spirit and teaches really well. I have seen a
difference in my teaching since then, and have felt the spirit a lot stronger
and constant in me. We had a lesson with the girlfriend of K, a member in
the ward, and wow! It was so good! We gave her a tour of the capilla (chapel) and then
taught her in the chapel. She felt the spirit so strong and started crying. She
wants to be baptized and married in the temple. Well K practically
proposed to her right there.
We have seen some miracles this week but also
some trials. Everyday I am more convinced that this is the only true church on
the earth. Jesus Christ guides it through his prophet. I am so grateful to
represent the Savior in this area.
Ok I have no time left but I just want you to
all know that I love this work and I hope you're taking part in it! If you can, watch the work of salvation broadcast from the church. The videos are legit!
Con amor,
