Well what shall I say about this week?
It was really good! We had a Multi Zone Conference on Wednesday and had
Elder Alonso of the Seventy there! He was so amazing and so Powerful!
He can look into your eyes and just know who you are! All of you!
Hermana Salas was chosen to get an interview with him and she said he
touched her very soul with the things he said to her! He basically said
we can't give up no matter what. This work is too important and we can't
be lazy. If we are we might as well go home. Our job isn't to complain
but to save souls! Talk about pressure! haha It was truly amazing and
let me just tell you that all of this was in spanish and I TOTALLY
UNDERSTOOD IT! Granted afterwards my brain was about to explode but
through the spirit I was able to get as much out of it as a native
speaker!
All of this was in the city and I
have migrations the next day so because Hermana Salas wasn't a 100% yet
we stayed in the city that night so we didn't have to get up at 4 in the
morning the next day! It was great we went out with the other sisters
in that area which used to be Hermana Salas's area and I got to meet her
convert! He was really cool and gave us free cake! The next day we had
migrations and her doctors appointment and now I officially have my
carnet (visa) and no longer have to fear la policia! We also still don't know
what is wrong with Hna Salas and need to go back sometime this week for
blood and urinary test so they can find out once and for all what is the
problem with her. Good news though is that she feels a lot better and
we were able to work the rest of the week! We were able to visit some of
our less actives found a new less active but also a new investigator!
Thats pretty cool!
We have been getting a lot
of rain lately and it has been so nice! It has been so cool! At night we
actually have to be bundled up which is so weird but so nice! The other
day we left the house for our district meeting and it was pouring rain
and we were walking in water up to our ankles!! We were completely
soaked! It was fun! :).
This morning we got
together with two other sisters in our district and made a huge
breakfast! We had bacon and pancakes with M&Ms (they don't have
chocolate chips!) and hash browns and eggs and Hna Gilman (from Hawaii)
Made a piña coloda!! It was great! I am so full! hahaha
I
just want you all to know that the atonement is the answer for
everything in our lives. That was another thing Elder Alonso said. The
Atonement is our greatest tool in this life and what helps us the most. I
have never felt it more in my life then I have being a missionary. I
know Jesus Christ atoned for our sins and He lives. Because He lives we
will be able to live again and because of that we have the greatest hope
in this life and the life to come. I love being a missionary and all
the challenges that come with it!
Enjoy your
last week of school!
Les Quiero muchísimo!
Hermana Garcia
