Get Used To Change

Hola hola! Cómo están? What are all the life's updates I wanna hearrrr!!

Not much different happened this week honestly, lots of lessons, lots of let downs, lots of new people that do wanna learn and don't wanna learn and ALL GOOD THINGS!!

☆Transfers are tomorrow! This transfer flewwww by and let's just say President called us this morning and asked us many many questions haha and then asked to talk to me privately, scared the crap out of me but it's all good we're besties! Not 100% sure what's gonna happen this transfer but bueno!

☆Our first baptism is this area is TOMORROW!!! So so excited eeeek!

☆also I'm so sorry, I'm trying to do better about taking more pictures with our friends and members, I'm trying to improve on that lol

☆on a 3 month streak without an interview with President

☆we had stake conference yesterday and sooooo many people showed up to the point that we had 2 overflow rooms and us missionaries had to sit in a small room together and just listen to the intercom (hopefully that's the right word haha)

SPIRITUAL:
Today in my study i was reading about scriptures about baptism that I could share in lessons and came across this scripture in D&C 20 that says, "Then shall he immerse him or her in the water, and come forth again out of the water.
 It is expedient that the church meet together often to partake of bread and wine in the remembrance of the Lord Jesus"

Since we have our baptism tomorrow I thought this was appropriate, being able to help people make a covenant with our Heavenly Father brings so much joy I can't expres! Despite health problems and being exhausted and so extremely tired every day because we work so so hard, I would never replace what I'm doing for the world. I LOVE JESUS!!!! 

Les amo mucho have an amazing week!

Xoxo

Happy Monday everyone! And happy p-day to all my missionary friends . Hope you are all doing well and staying safe! If I can be praying for anyone plz plz plz reach out, I would absolutely love to pray for people so send names por favor! ☆I HAD MY FIRST BAPTISM!!! Hector us the coolest guy out there let me tell ya, we sent him a text the morning of his baptism to ask him how he's feeling bc he was a bit nervous and he responded by saying "I'm good I'm just waiting until the hour comes, but I'm firm in my decision to be baptized" WOOHOO he's just the best. The baptism was so freaking good and I got to lead the music and felt like a pro thanks shoutout to the one and only Hermana Mendez! Hector shared his feelings after and told us a story of his conversion and how he was in a really dark place just 3 weeks ago when one of our other converts found him in the street. He said he's learned from jehovahs witnesses but was never baptized, attended another ch...

Holaaa mis queridos!! Hope you all had a wonderful Easter remembering our Savior! This weeks recap: -exchanges with the hermanas in la Concordia with hna Tischner (aka one of my new best friends) and let me just say, two white girls in the dangerous parts of my area...not a good idea -reached almost all of our goals this past week and found SO many escogidos and only 1 person came to church for Easter, definitely not the result i was hoping to have -when we went to la Concordia to start exchanges and finally got to ride my first mototaxi -got to do the Easter studies every day this week and wowww it made it so incredibly special! -as for the title of this email, we just went to the part lf our area called "Cristo Vive" or "Christ lives" on the day that he resurrected so i thought that was kinda cool!! SPIRITUAL: Ok this week i honestly just want to share my testimony! I'm so grateful for this Easter to have been able to serve this Lord with all my might and stre...

Today I'm gonna write this by day of what happened because just so many eventful things that went down Monday: traveled to Quito, went to an appointment with the mission presidents wife, then waited in the offices to receive transfers, opened transfers in front of President and me and hermana friend SCREAMED and literally jumped out of our seats when we saw we're training AGAIN!!! (We even have video proof) Tuesday: leadership council and helping the other hermanas get ready for transfers and traveling Wednesday: started off the day with a great start, we go to the terminal in Carcelen and get the other hermanas in the bus and while they're sitting in the bus waiting a guy comes in a robs them, her phone and her money and her card, and they hadn't even left to go to the concordia yet...sometimes i hate ecuador wit...
