Well. lets see whats going on here? Haha just the same old same
old. But its awesome and Im loving it. I really feel so truly blessed to
be in this sector at this time. As I do divisions I just see how
blessed I truly am to be working with so many awesome people and to have
such an awesome ward. Seriously these people are like my family I love
them to death.
So there are 2 weeks left of
the transfer and we are working hard to make it a really great last two
weeks for hermana orton. Im sure gonna miss her we have so much fun
laughing all the time. Ive never had a companion that Ive gotten along
better with so itll be sad to see her go. But we will be going to byu at
the same time so we will be seeing each other lots (mom and dad Im
gonna send her with a USB with pics also I already volunteered your help
to find her a good mac on ksl and to help her learn how to do family
history haha)
So this week we lost una fecha
bautismal but honestly I was really happy about it. Omar was gonna get
baptized this next saturday but we talked to him and he told us that he
wants to get baptized as a complete commitment to God and be absolutely
sure that he is doing it forever so he asked to have an interview with
the bishop to help him understand a few things and so that he can get a
second opinion and that he will decide his date this week. I was really
happy because sometimes you teach people and you just hope and wonder if
they really understand the importance of this covenant they are making
but after talking we could see that he really does and that he really
desires to make that covenant with God and be absolutely faithful to it
for the rest of his life. I was so proud. Haha I think I told you guys
about his Gym buddy Luis that is getting baptized too right? So this
wednesday they planned to go to the gym together and then the Elders
english class and then to see the bishop together. Haha its pretty fun
and cute to see how excited he gets about having a friend to do
everything with him. So please pray lots for Omar so he can choose a
good date for baptism. He is the sweetest.
We keep fasting a lot. I cannot even express how much I am learning to love it. SOOOOO MANY MIRACLES come from it.
Hmmmmmm
what else.... Oh yeah! Elder Nelson is coming next monday! That will be
awesome. It will be a cool last pday for hna Orton. Hermana Altamirano
(my trainer) would be leaving but she was able to extend a month to be
able to go to the temple with Cleber to get his endowments. So we are
reeeaaaaalllly excited for that. Its gonna be great.
I really love this work. I love being a missionary and I love everything that Im learning day to day.
This
week I was thinking about mistakes that Ive made in my life and in the
mission. Nothing big but just things like the other day when I should
have called someone but I didnt. Or when I wish I would have shared that
scripture, or loved that person more, etc etc. And sometimes thats
frustrating because I cant go back and change it or fix it but as I
thought about it I was just sooooo grateful for a savior that made it
possible for me to mess up. I dont need to freak out when I do something
wrong or when Im not perfect. (For those that know me well they can
tell that Im a bit .... or a lot..... of a perfectionist) I can just be
grateful that God made it possible for me to keep going when I mess up.
Im so glad that he has so much patience with me and that he helps me
every day to be better, to learn through trials, to help me feel loved
when I get down on myself etc. Im so grateful that Christ was willing to
pay for my errors so that I dont have to be perfect all at once.
Because of Him we have a whole life in which to improve and mess up and
repent and trust in the Lord. Im so glad that He can take me weak
imperfect state and make me something so much better. :)
Well I have to go. But I love you all and cant wait to hear from you next week.
With love
