Hola Familia!!!
Wow! Time just flies
by!! It's so crazy I've already been here two weeks! The spirit is still super
strong and I'm learning so much!!! I don't have that much to tell you about the
last week, but I now have two progressing investigators and the Spanish keeps
coming so I’m definitely witnessing the gift of tongues. I've taught 10 lessons
in Spanish now. Two of them were on
Monday night when we do something called TRC. Members of the church volunteer
to be taught and so we go in and share a quick message with them. Teaching
members is different than investigators for sure, but our purpose is still the
same, to invite others to come unto Christ. So we challenged one couple to
continue doing their family scripture study, but write down the promptings and
inspirations that they receive while they read. I think that as we are ready to
write down our impressions, we are more attentive to the spirit and we can
continue to receive more as we listen. I've been working on that this last week
and it's so crazy to see the difference already in noticing when I receive
promptings and forget them, and when I receive them, write them down, and
follow them! So maybe this next week (whoever is reading this) should try to do
the same. (:
So my district is pretty
much awesome!! On Tuesday, after devotional we all meet together in the
classroom and discuss something we learned. Then after, our district leader
felt prompted to hold a testimony meeting. And hearing everyone's testimonies
was so amazing; I've never felt the spirit so strong! I love being surrounded
by missionaries all the time! I think I forgot to tell you, but everyone in my
district is going to Rosario! Even my companions, which is really rare! We are
all hoping that we will work in the same area down in Argentina sometime. But
we are all best friends, which we kind of have to be anyways since we spend all
day together, but I'm so grateful for them and their friendship. During gym
time, we all try and play volleyball together and I'm actually not bad! At
least, I'm getting better. (:
Well, that's pretty much
it for this week! So many missionaries came in yesterday, and it's so cool to
see how many people I know here because basically everyone went to BYU. But I
did see Trevor at the temple on Sunday so I'll send you the pictures! Now I see
him a few times a week which is cool! I still see Nathaniel every day (: I
can't wait for Cori and Jacquie to come!! I am pretty sure that I will be a
host on the day they come in so please send me the times they are coming
so I can look for them!!!! I love you all and hope you have an amazing week!
Look for ways to feel the spirit more strongly and don't forget to write down
the promptings you receive. Keep sending letters! I absolutely LOVE them!! (:
I'll hand write you back later today if you sent me one! Please keep praying
for me, I really appreciate it and I know that they are helping me! It's only
been two weeks and I can teach almost every lesson in Spanish! I even taught
the Word of Wisdom yesterday, which is harder than you think…haha
I love you all, can't
wait to write again<3

P.S. funny story of the week: One of the elders was talking about
how the adversary blinds our investigators and his companion said, "We are
like Windex and paper towels, going out two by two to clean off the eyes of
those we teach" hahaha It was probably more funny to us, but that's as
much humor as we get here and I love it! (:
