Week 48

Hey! I hope you are all going great! 
This week was chill and fast and not really much happened.


But we had interviews with president this week and he said to me "mi hija" which means my daughter so apparently pres loves me. But it was a really good interview he basically told me that we needed to drop all of our friends and find new ones because nobody is progressing, so we dropped over 40 people and we started to findddd! The next morning we went out and found 6 people and they all wanted to hear our message! The Lord is working behind the scenes in all of our life's. 


My comp decided she wants to start running, so we run everyday in our parking lot and I've never been happier and my mom sent me a pull up bar, so catch me being shredded when I get home.
Also I am sick of the youth music so I now run listening to church talks hahaha.


Our friend Samantha, he's from India and is Buddhist, and we taught him on Saturday and it was so cool and difficult to even know where to start. But we started with God and that He loves us and wants to talk to His children. So to end the lesson we ended in a prayer and then we invited him to pray alone during the week and he accepted! Then after he gave us NICE pizza, like very expensive pizza and some cake! It was a good time, everyone pray for him! 


Spiritual thought
This week on Sunday was my dad's 8th year anniversary of him passing and since I didn't have my family here with me to hug me and comfort me on this day I decided to turn to my Savior and His words. 
I came across Mosiah 16: 8-9 
And it says
"But there is a resurrection, therefore the grave hath no victory, and the sting of death is swallowed up in Christ. He is the light and the life of the world; yea, a light that is endless, that can never be darkened; yea, and also a life which is endless, that there can be no more death."


I am so eternaly grateful for my loving Heavenly Father and my Savior who made it possible for every single one of us to live with our families for the eternities. I know because Christ rose, we will too and we will, without a doubt, see our loved ones again. 


I love you all, have a fabulous week and remember to put God first.

Heyyy!!! Im loving life here in the DR! SO MUCH FUN!!!! this week was crazyyy!!!  This week we had exchanges! On Friday morning the Hermana leaders came to our apartment and picked me up and I said bye to my companion for 24 hours! The hermana leaders are a threesome so it was me, Hermana Dominguez, and Hermana Torrez. We headed to their apartment in a different area of Santiago but it was only about 20 minutes from my area. We had lunch (Hermana Torrez can COOK!!!) we did companion study, then headed out for the day! Their area was popey (rich) haha! It was beautiful, flowers everywhere!! But the people weren't as friendly. But we got ice cream from BON for dinner and it was good but not as good as my mom and grandpa's homemade ice cream!! The next day I headed back home and I missed my companion! I love my area so much and my comp so much!  We have been speaking only Spanish in the streets and I think it's been helping me a ton! Shoutout to Boomer for the great idea!! FEL...

Hola hola cómo están? Hey hey how's everyone doing? I hope you are all doing so so good and I just want you to all know I miss you so much! This week was so speedy!  And not anything really special happened. It definitely was a little bit of a harder week but with God anythings possible. But I saw a few wonderful miracles. Uur friend Jenny. She told us she wanted to go to church but she only had money to get to church, not to get back home. But she took a step of faith and God worked out the rest of the details like He always does.  We had zone conference and it was so so good. The thing that stuck most with me was becoming a disciple of Jesus Christ, not just a missionary. We also talked about keeping the end in mind as missionaries and our goal as missionaries is to baptize people who are converted to Jesus Christ. It was a really good conference. Then the senior missionaries made peanut butter bars and they reminded me of my dad, bittersweet. On Sunday we had stake conferen...

HEY EVERYONE!!!! Hows everyone doing?? On December 12th I got to the DR! It was a long day of travel but we made it! We flew from Mexico to Florida then from Florida to the DR! We got on our second flight to Santiago and the plane was full of natives. I tried to talk to this cute old man sitting next to me but I swear he wasn't speaking Spanish hahaha. That's when I knew I was in for a wild ride.  We got to Santiago and went to President Bretóns house! We spent the night there and in the morning they had a Dominican breakfast ready for us! It was really good! Then we headed to the mission office and had orientation. Then we got to meet our companions! My comp is so awesome! Her name is Hermana Lowry! She's been out in the field for almost 16 months! She's an incredible missionary and I love her!! We headed to our area and I'm in Bella Vista!  The people here are so awesome!  We mostly teach kids and women! The kids absolutely love to hear the gospel!  Since I'm ...
