HOLA FAMILIA Y MI AMIGOS!!! So life is good, loving the misson!! So not much happened this week. We have 2 Fecha Baptismals!!! (baptism dates) So pumped!! I love watching people grow from the gospel. Such a blessing. The gospel brings so much happiness.  I am slowly starting to lose my self in the work and I am so stoked. One thing I learned this week was that when you think you are humble or when you are conscious about it, then you have lost it. So I guess we never know when we are truly humble!  Another thing that I learned this week was more about the Atonement. Imagine if we didn´t have the atonement.. We would go through life not really learning anything, sinning, and live a dirty life. We would go to the judgement bar with shame. Heavenly Father would say "I am sorry my daughter you are too dirty I can not accept you, you have to suffer, justice is an unchanging law." BUT THATS NOT HOW IT IS. WE CAN CHANGE. Every day we can change and become better. U

1.  How are you feeling physically this week? SOOOO MUCH BETTER!!! Im finally feeling like my good old self again!! 2.  How are you feeling emotionally this week? SAME as the first question 3.  How are things with your companion? better, still hard but getting better. She tells me what to do a lot in a rude way but we are getting bettter 4.  When you said last week that your companion attacks you and is sassy, what do you mean...give an example.  (Please keep in mind if your companion is bullying you that it is something you should talk to your mission president about.) no I think it is just the way she talks to me...Dont worry we are getting better, but she just gets angry when I do things wrong or I dont understand. We talk about it everyday haha but we still have fun and laugh together! 5.  So I most likely will be sending you a package in October.  It will go to the mission office and then make its way to you through zone conferences etc.  SO...anything y

I LOVE ECUADOR AND I LOVE BEING A MISSIONARY Seriously it is the best. Every day we get to serve others and study the gospel and teach. AHH I LOVE IT So this week went by so fast!

How are you feeling?  Any lingering problems with your intestines? MUCHO mejor, I am not sick anymore Have you taken any probiotics? I have taken the stuff the doctors gave me How are things with your companion?  Have you gotten to know her a little better now that you aren’t sick? its alright, I get frustrated because she can be hard to get along with. I feel like she is always attacking me and being sassy with me and it is hard to talk to her about it So your companion is a little serious but is she a hard worker? yep What does a “normal” week look like in Buena Fe?  Give us an example schedule of one of your days. studies and then we go out and talk to people and teach lessons! Is it nice to have Hermana Yardley and her companion in your apartment?  Do you see them much?  Are they in your same ward? yeah it is really nice to be able to talk to her about things and no they are in a different ward

HOLA AMIGOS woah what a crazy week!!!!!! These past two weeks have been the hardest weeks of my mission. First I was really sick and then I got really homesick and had pretty bad anxiety for a week. I think it is everything. The new culture and the new language and just everything!! BUT This is what I wanted. I wanted it to be hard so that I could change and become a better person. I wanted the trials. That is how we grow!! This is what I learned this past week: -How to COMPLETLY rely on the Lord. We need to fall to our knees and beg for his help -I learned that I am weak and I can only do things through Christ. Christ makes me strong -There truly is peace in Christ -My spanish is trash and I cant understand anyone, so I have to rely on Christ in order to teach people -I LOVE MY HEAVENLY FATHER SO MUCH - everything I do here on the mission is for HIM I Hope you can all apply these things to your life! If you are struggling please turn to the scriptures and
