Week Forty Two: May 23, 2016

MAY 23, 2016
Hey everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful week!!

This week was a little different because my companion went to a new missionary conference for a couple days in Concepcion and I was with Hna Graham and Hna Monroy in their sector.
It was fun to be with them and learn from others work.:)

We visited one of their less-actives who said to her daughter investigating: "After I got baptized I realized that there just wasn´t time to be depressed, sad, rude,etc!! The spirit of the atonement of Christ filled those gaps in my life and i need to live the gospel again so that they will be filled once again." This was stuck in my mind after and it can’t be more true. I know that CHRIST has healed us and continues to strengthen every detail of our lives.

T****** y A*******: They are a cute couple with 2 littles and one on the way! They aren´t married but I still have hope and I am happy we found them this week! We taught them lesson 1 and she agreed to pray but said she felt she already knows its true when she was reading the folleto earlier that week that we left with them. She also wants to read the WHOLE BOM! :) go right ahead;) 

My companion returned from her conference with all new excitement, it made me think back to the beginning of my mission... That night we were walking and knocking doors in the pouring rain because out appt fell through and I told her about my conference where I made a promise to myself that I would be happy every single day of the mission no matter what be the circumstance. I have tried my best to do that throughout the mission, obviously there are still very very very hard days and moments but we control our attitude. This applies in every aspect of life. We then got talking about sacrifice and how no big deal that it rains lots and lots in our mission... because we have the opportunity to sacrifice a little more for the Lord.

I hope we can pray for a happy attitude in all moments of life, I am not perfect at this in any way but I always try to be positive.:) Also pray and search for opportunitues to share your testimony of our Savior and his enabling Atonement. 

I know these things are true with all my heart and they will ultimately bring lasting eternal happiness!
I love you all to the moon and back!
