Life's A Rollercoaster

Image
holaaa this week was seriously a rollercoaster for me. during the 4 months I've been on my mission I feel like I experience every emotion literally everyday, but for some reason this week felt harder then others. It taught me how to really lean on my savior and put my faith and trust in him. It's that little thing that made ALL the difference. he has a plan for each one of us and when we learn to trust him and his plan we will be able to feel the love he has for us so much more!!  we had an awesome lesson with Clint this week and really got to teach him about how the atonement is real and that it can help him!! he's now getting help with his smoking and I hope in the next couple months he will be ready to be baptized♡ he's so awesome and has the strongest testimony EVER!  Janets been crazy busy and I know Satan's working extra hard on her as she's preparing for baptism so please keep her in your prayers!!  CRAZY STORY!! so we found this guy named Ladi on the str...

hola everybodyyyy!  this week I was able to see the hand of God in my life ALOT and in the lives of the people we're teaching!! we've been working so hard but haven't really seen our work making a big difference until this week! after lots of prayers we were able to see some miracles! Janet is now on date to be baptized!!!! If you don't remember janet is the one who got her trailer stolen a month ago. it's taken a little while to get to this point but it's been so awesome to see how Janet has leaned on God through her trial and gotten to the point where she wants be to baptized!!!  we were able to teach clint about baptism this week too and he's praying for the right time. he is SO ready but just has some things to get over so I know as he leans on the atonement he'll be able to get to that point. ALMA 26:36- I've been reading a lot in alma this week and this scripture just really stood out to me!! being able to teach people about how powerful he is ...

hola people!! I was able to focus on my patience this week and trusting in the lords timing. we have a lot of people who are so close to being baptized but somehow they all have covid?!? so it's been really hard not being able to teach them the past 2 weeks but hopefully they'll start feeling better this week! I know things come in the lords timing and we have to trust in that♡   our friend jacob fed us cow tongue and cow head ahhh!! since I can't really understand spanish my comp told me it was carne asada.... ya nope definitely not that!! Jacob also came to church for the 1st time this sunday and someone passed out in the first 10 min of sacrament so they ended it early... he'll definitely remember his 1st time at church hahah we've been teaching Clint for a long time and he's been to church over 50 times he's so awesome!! he's still struggling with his smoking and tends to get discouraged from it super easily so that's why he hasn't been able ...

hey everyone!! I learned so much this week and it really was just so good. we spent lots of time at the temple and our mission had the chance to hear from President Ballard! one of the biggest things he taught me was the importance of really getting to know Jesus Christ and constantly studying the life and ministry of him. I know that as we really get to know him and and what he did for us it changes everything and it'll help us want to be better people!  literally EVERYBODY has covid right now so pray that these people get betterrrr so we can have some lessons and they can keep progressing!!!  this week we had a guy on the street ask us if we were married and then told us we needed to baptize him right now, then right after that we witnessed some guys fighting by the browns. vegas has some crazy people that's for sure!!  Ether 12:4 having a FIRM hope will help us to see that there is always better things ahead and that things always work out how they're supposed to....

Feliz Año Nuevo

HOLA!! this week with the new year I was able to think a lot about the past year and everything that's happened and it's been a hard one that's for sure... but I've learned that hard is what makes a grow and shapes us into the people the lord needs us to become. I know that as we let the lord prevail in our lives it will make the biggest difference and we'll be able to experience things we may not have if we didn't trust in the Lord!  not a lot has happened this week with the people we're teaching but really hoping for lots of progression SOON with Daryl, Janet, Sarah, and Clint. so keep all these people in your prayers♡ the highlight was watching fireworks from our window... so that just shows what an exciting week it was lol. we had to be inside early on new years eve cuz sin city gets CRAZYYYY. we were hearing fireworks and gun shots everywhere. love living next to the browns;)  Romans 8:28- when we show our love to God and choose to follow him with a who...
