Well
last Tuesday we had conferencia with the Mission Presidente. It was really
cool. Wow, he is such a powerful guy. The craziest part is that it is all
in Spanish, 100%. It´s a miracle that I can understand anything he
says...haha. He talked a lot about urgency. Really I never realized how
powerful of a word it really is. Elder Ballard in a talk in 2013 October
conference talked about urgency too. He said ¨there exists urgency in each and
every one of us to participate in missionary work¨ before my mission I had no
idea what that even meant. How can we as members help the missionaries? If you
have the same question please find the missionaries in your ward and ask them
specifically, how can I help you? I have been learning that the work is
significantly different in different parts of the world, but one thing that is
the same in every country is that missionary work isn´t just for missionaries.
It is for members and missionaries to work together, the missionaries are
called to help members. The urgency exists in every country, in every mission,
in every stake ward branch or district.
Then
on Wednesday our second counselor asked me if I could talk in sacrament meeting
about exactly that, urgency of the work. And how to get the members involved. I
will be the first one to admit that before my mission I had no idea how to
share the gospel with anyone let alone people I don´t even know very well, but
I can promise you that you can do it.
Okay
enough of that rant...haha the work here is still moving relatively slow. Sofía
is out of town so we didn´t see her at all this week, that was kind of sad. We
found one new investigator. She is 10 years old too, really, exactly like
Sofía. Her mom has been a member for a really long time...but...inactive. So we
have another family to work with and to help them realize the importance of the
gospel.
Realmente.
Yo sé que este iglesia es la única iglesia en todo el mundo que Dios esta
dirigiendo. Dios quiere por cada uno de sus hijos a encontrar este evangelio
que cada uno puede recibir los bendiciones.
Por
las personas que están leyendo esto y no pueden entender, por favor traducirlo.

¡Tratalo!
Encontrar los felicidades eterna. Yo sé que existe. Si piense que ya esta
feliz, yo puedo prometer que puede encontrar mas con la ayuda y amor de
Dios.
Le
amo cada uno de ustedes. Gracias por su apoyo amor y oraciones.
Translation:
Really.
I know this Church is the only Church in the world that God is directing. God
wants for each of your children to find this gospel so that everyone can
receive the blessings.
Try
it! Find the eternal happiness. I know it exists. If you think you are already
happy, I can promise, you can find more with the help and love of God.
I
love every one of you. Thanks for your support love and prayers.
Always,
Hermana
