What Do You Know About Fire Alarms

BUENAS! Wow, this week went by so fast I can't even believe it! Once again, I am in shock of the way the Lord guides our lives as missionaries. On the 19th, we had our plan and both of our backup plans fall through and decided to take a more relaxed way of contacting, and just get to know some people in the park. I kid you not guys, the first lady that we talked to was a miracle. She had been taught by missionaries previously and her información got lost when she moved. She was so excited to be talking with us, we ended up having a lesson with her right then and there. AND not one but 2 ladies from the ward ended up passing by and joined our lesson. God's truly got a plan. Sometimes we just can't see it right when we are in the middle of it. But every time I look back, I see the Lord guiding my every step. And that alone is a blessing. I've had many people tell me that we as missionaries are angels, and we are sacrificing so much to be here, and how hard it must be to b...

Would You Go?

Ahhhh hello all!! This week flew by, and was so full of miracles! We had zone conference this week, which was amazing! We talked about finding the one and how far we would go to find the one. If the Lord asked you to go to the moon, would you go? This had me thinking a lot about my relationship with the Savior — how far would I go... apparently Perú... but how in tune am I with the Spirit to be led and find the people that the Lord has been preparing... I just have this little scripture I want to share. It's Alma 22:18: “O God,” he prayed, “Aaron hath told me that there is a God; and if there is a God, and if thou art God, wilt thou make thyself known unto me, and I will give away all my sins to know thee." I love this last part... I will give away all my sins to know thee... to know the Savior... to know His heart... to KNOW HIM. We have the opportunity to know Him if we will just turn our sins, our burdens, our hearts over to Him. Don't you want to know Him? That's m...

Whys It So Quiet

Well, what do you know about transfers... because that happened. They took me out of my little Los Postes, and I'll never forget that place; it has a piece of my heart. I will never forget walking for hours looking for an apartment... sugared peanuts... fruit hauls... how the heavens opened when we would have companionship study... smiling so hard my face hurt. It was truly a blessing for me to start my mission in this area. This week went a little something like this... Monday, we had a going-away party for Hermana Mackay, and I had to tell the members that I was leaving too... tears were shed, and it was so sad. Tuesday, I said goodbye to Hermana Mackay for the day because she spends the last day with President and Hermana Porter. So, Hermana Hardy and I went home, packed, said peace to the zone... talked about everything... and then THE BEST THING... we got to go to the temple with Hermano Marco for his first time. Truly a blessing to be able to have that last night. Wednesday w...
