Someone's Stalking Us

We had a sisters pday at the presidents house on Monday! It was so fun to see more sister missionaries and talk with the president and his wife. The mission president and his wife are the kindest people and I love them so much. Also...I had cow heart this week. It wasn't that bad but it's not something I want to eat when I get home. This week we focused on finding people through service. So we helped this lady carry some things to her house. We told her that we do service for free and that she doesn't need to pay us.Well it wasn't her house, it's an abandoned house that's for sale. We tried sharing a message with her afterwards but she wouldn't pay attention so we invited her to an activity at the church the next day. The next morning she knocked on our door. We have no idea how she knows where we live! We didn't answer because people aren't really suppose to know where we live. And then she shows up to the church and was looking for us but we were in a lesson. Anyways she just wants us to clean her house. We still don't know how she knew where we lived...kinda crazyyy. 


We had multizone conference and it was so good :) Sis. Hiatt (presidents wife) doesn't know any Spanish so she reads her talk and tries to pronounce the words as best as she could. She's the cutest! Alot of missionaries here are learning English too so she had her talk written in Spanish and English on the screen so everyone could understand. For the first time I actually understood an entire message hehe. She related the Holy Ghost to breathing. Sometimes we pay attention to our breathes, but most of the time we just breathe without realizing. That's how the spirit is. As we are keeping our covenants we are promised to have the spirit with us always. We shouldn't necessarily only focus on when we have the Holy Ghost with us but we need to recognize when it leaves. 


If yall could pray for Rosario, Maydith, Luigui, and Leonardo that would be great! They are our amigos that are progressing right now. Leonardo is from Venezuela and he's 26 yrs old. The first time we met him he looked so sad. He's gone to church twice and a few activities at the church. You can already see a change in him and brightness about him. Jesus christ can change lives. He has changed mine. He brings me peace and hope. He is the light of the world. Jesus Christ is everything to me.


I love yall so so much! Have a fabulous week!

I Got My Visa!

Image
Okayyyy so guess what?! I got my visa! There were only 2 missionaries out of all 30-40 Peru missionaries at the MTC that got their visa. I was one of them! It's a MIRACLE! I leave for Peru on Monday and I'm so excited. God definitely has a plan for me and there must be someone in Peru that needs me.  This week has been super good. My Spanish is coming along. It's going to be so sad leaving my companions and district. I love them so much and it will be hard saying goodbye. We are still just having classes everyday trying to learn spanish. One night the fire alarm went off, my other two companions had just gotten out of the shower and were running to put clothes on to leave. The cops came and were trying to figure out what happened but no one knows. The very next night we had to go get medicine and as we were walking back, the MTC president stopped and asked us why there were so many people outside after hours. He told us to do better. It was kinda funny haha. Anywaysss, this...

1 Yearrrrr

Image
Holaaaaa!! I have officially been a missionary for 1 year! The hardest year of my life. The best year for my life. A year of learning. A year of patience. A year of growing. A year of meeting the most amazing people. A year of making friendships. A year of coming closer to my savior. A year of miracles. A year that I will never forget. A year of love for my heavenly father and Jesus christ. There have been times where I've just wanted to give up. But in these times, the Lord gave me strength to press forward. I am so grateful for all the many experiences I have had in Peru and I'm excited for these last 6 months. One of my favorite things about the mission is the opportunity we have to meet new people. I have made lasting friendships and I want to thank each one of my companions for everything they have taught me!   Hna Goates She taught me how to find JOY! She is the most positive and happy person I've ever met. There's is so much joy and happiness even in the lowest m...
