Hello!!!!!!!!!!!! It´s the last one!

Wow!! I just saw the photos of Karlie in casa and I cannot believe it!! It looks like a dream!!!! Take care of her because she might be a little lost these next few days if someone is not within 3 feet of her at all times! 

And well, I cannot actually believe it. This is the last letter as a missionary and I just have to say Thanks!!! I am so grateful for this opportunity that I have had to grow immensely in the Gospel and also learn so much about myself and my Savior. And I am just grateful God answers prayers. He really lives! and His Son too!!! And one day we will be able to meet them face to face and I imagine there will be big hugs like we will experience here in just a few days! 

My last week here went well. We really could feel the hand of God guiding us to people who want to know more about the Gospel. And if we go to church every week seeking answers and revelation we will definately receive it. It was a good week. 

I love the Lord! and I love the Gospel! I have learned that I do not have to be perfect right now, but that I just need to keep working for that goal! Because it is possible if we have faith in Christ. It is just time to keep helping others come unto Christ but just in a different place. And cannot believe it has come already!! And well I guess I will see you all very soon. Love ya!

Happy Easter!

4/6/15

Hi family!!!

And well I LOVED conference. It was just great and that saturday was almost completely about the family. I am so grateful for the family we have!!! And I am excited to see you all!!  But with time... I got one more week to hit here in Mexico and it is gonna be great!!!!!!!!! 
And something great that happened this week was my companion and I went to a members home to have a lesson and guess who I found there!!! Karen!!! I was the missionary that helped her get batized!!!!!!!!!! It turns out that these members were her family and she stopped by with her family to visit! And what gave me even greater joy was that she is still strong in the church. And do you know what happened after I left?! Her mom and her little sister got baptized and her dad got reactivated!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It makes me so happy!! What a nice renuion. 
And well we are just searching for people here who want to know better their Savior. It truly is just such a great message and EVERYTHING about the Gospel is TRUE and I LOVE IT! 
I cannot actually believe that I am so close to coming home... how crazy!! 

Well I love you all! and I hope you have a fantastic week! And say hi to Karlie for me!!

Glorious!

3/30/15

Hello my family!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you for all you letters!!!! They are just great!! And well I am doing good here! Just trying not to freak out. Mom and dad I think your prayers are being answered that the time goes by really fast because the weeks are just flying by!! I cannot believe it!! But, ya, enough of that.

This week was good!! We could find a few people have been able to see that the Gospel is really important for their lives, And we are still searching for more!! And I hope you have all seen the video 'because He lives' I have. And it gave me the urge to cry almost the whole day!! I know my Savior lives and that He loves me!!! He is just perfect and I just love Him. I was reading today in Mosiah 3 and I invite you all to read it because it talks about the first coming of Christ. The Nephites fell to the ground astounded for this grand opportunity to receive a remission of their sins and regresar and live with God. And just imagine the Second time... It will just be glorious!!! And if we can just make the decision one time to always follow Him no matter what were just going to be happy and live forever in our wonderful family! I just love it!! 
And I love you all so much!! And I have to go... but I will see you soon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 
Love ya!

"Yes, you can do it!"

3/23/15

Hi family!!! 

I am just so happy for all your letters!!! Thanks a bunch!! They are always so helpful!! 
And well this week went well! We were able to help a lot of people who are converts to the Gospel and I love working with them!! They have such a love and gratitude for the Gospel and are not afraid to share it!! And also we have been helping a family that has not gone to church for a while and they came yesterday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It was really happy. Sometimes we just need to have someone reach out to us and say that 'yes you can do it'! That is probably one of the best phrases you could say to someone. I personally love it!! 
And I know God answers prayer. He is always there and ready to help us. 
And that is about it for this week family!! ! Love you all so much!! And we´ll see ya soon!!

p.s.s I got a package from november 4th! And so my companion and I are enjoying a thanksgiving dinner this week. Chiapa de Corzo!! and do you remember my first companion!? Well I got to go to her sealing last Saturday in the temple here. Ya, she just got married!! It was really neat!

God Answers Prayers!!

3/16/15

Hello family!! 

I really do not have anytime this week!! But I am doing well!!
quick story!! This week we were walking in the street looking for people to teach and well they were not home. And then a young girl passed by and said you are the missionaries!!! We have been waiting for you!! Her family had just moved from a different place and did not know anything about where the church was and they needed some support and then they found us!! I just want you all to know that I know God answers prayers!! Sometimes super fast and others you have to wait for more than a year to receive the answer... but He always answers!! 

I love you all so much!!

Keep walking!!

Hi Family!! 

I really do not have a lot of time. But this week was a lot of learning in my new area. I am here in Tuxtla with Hna Grau. She is 30 years old. Pretty awesome!! She has about 5 months in the mission. And well I am in the biggest city and well we walk up and down one giant hill all day long. I cannot believe how long it is. 20 minutes of walking and you still have not reached the top! And I am on the other side of the city from where I started almost a year ago. How crazy!! The time has gone so fast!! And well we are just working hard to find people who want to hear the Gospel and this week will be a week of searching...and miracles!! And well we are just gonna keep walking!! 

Another thing is that I have been studying about paciencia this week and I learned something new and pretty impactful. Being patient includes handling situations with calmness and hope. And stressing out about things means that we have lost a little patience....wow....I did not know that. But it makes sense!! And so I am working more with patience. 

ANd well I am doing well! Thanks to everyone en serio for all the cards and packages!!! So awesome! Love you all! And we will see you in five weeks! adios!
