Missionary Chronicles: New Snack...Hormigas

Hola a todos! How was everyone's week? I hope ot was awesome and you were able to see God guiding your path along the way! This week was kind of a slower one here for us, one of those weeks that kind of seems to drag on. It's alright though, because we still saw some miracles! This past week we had Zone Conference...my last Zone Conference as a missionary. It was full of all kinds of emotion but I had one extremely powerful experience that I'd like to share with y'all. As y'all know I've spent the last 9 months of my mission as a TL meaning I've been tasked with training and supporting the other missionaries in my zone. This has been a challenging assignment to say the least but I've also loved every minute of it! Part of this assignment has me training at Zone Conference each transfer. This particular transfer was filled was all kind of emotions knowing this would be my last training as a full-time missionary. Know, when I recieve spiritual promptings I...

Hola a todos! How was everyone's week? I hope that it was great and that you were able to see the hand of the Lord each day! We've been busy here and I'm excited to fill y'all in! We've had some awesome experiences with finding this week! It's so cool to notice that hand of thr Lord working in this area that I love with all my heart! One if my happiest moments happened this week on Tuesday! I'm not sure if y'all remember Angie Smith, she was the Recent Convert that I worked with in Paper Mill. She had my whole heart and I was super sad cause I wasn't sure I was going to see here again before I finish my mission. Well, I got to see her again this week cause our Bishops wife organized a lunch and brought Angie's wife to see me! Honestly made me so happy! She's so awesome and it warmed my heart to her about her progression in the church and her love for the temple! Recent Converts are the best!! Our fighting factor this week...the temperature. N...

Hola a todos! Alright y'all, just the fact that I just wrote pt.70 on this email has my mind blown... Anyways, I hope y'all had a fantastic week! We've been super busy here in Georgia and we've been working non-stop, really the only way to do it haha! This week was just like most first weeks of the transfer, full of meetings and gathering and such, still so awesome though!  We had MLC on Friday and it was amazing! President Harris has placed a huge emphasis on having members more involved in the teaching of our friends. We as an MLC set a new mission standard that a member will be invited to every planned teaching appointment (even if that means having them join through video call). It's a pretty lofty goal, but Hermana Nava and I have already seen it work in our area! On Saturday we had a lesson with Luis and we were able to have a member, Hermana Subieta, join over video call where she wouldn't have otherwise been able to participate! She bore a powerful testi...

Hola a todos! I hope y'all had ana awesome week! Our week was amazing here in Georgia and I'm so excited to fill y'all in! We had an AMAZING week for finding! In total we found 10 new people to teach which is so awesome! And the people we found seem pretty solid which is even more of a miracle! Here's a couple of powerful stories from this past week! So on Tuesday we were on exchanges with the Spanish STLs and I got to be with Hermana Broederlow again which is always a blast! We just work so well together so it's always so fun to see what the Lord can accomplish when we're working together! We had gotten a referral from the English Elders here in the area for a lady named Margarita. We went to the address that the Elders gave us and a guy answered the door and said that no one named Margarita lived there (classic lol). As we were walking away, two guys come rolling up on their bikes so we started talking to them. Their names are Salomón and José Luis. We talked ...
