This was a crazy weekend for me. President Henrie called me to be a sister training leader. This transfer he is also combining the English and Spanish zones, so me and my new companion Hermana Vega, will be over all the sisters in the zone. So each zone will have Spanish Sister Training Leaders and English Zone Leaders. I will take any advice I can get! I got a blessing yesterday, so I am feeling better, but I am still a little nervous for all the changes! More news...me and Hermana Vega are getting a car, and they are expanding our area! No more biking!!!! For now at least :) All I know is this transfer is going to be busy, busy, busy!
This is my new
companion! Hermana Vega -
I loooooved conference! I wish I could have sat there all day, but I realized that would defeat the purpose of Conference. We listen, feel the spirit, and are invited to make changes and become more Christ like. The most important part of conference is Sunday at 4:01 pm where we start making changes! Here are some of my favorite parts:
Looking for human weakness is rather easy- Elder Ballard- I do not want to
passively judge people anymore. Look for the strengths in everyone!
The Holy Ghost will lead us home- Elder Lawrence- The Holy Ghost is our
friend, and can give us very specific guidance. Strive for the Spirit's help,
correction, and support every day!
Our testimony must always be fresh- Presidente Eyring- The only way to have
a living, healthy, strong testimony is to have the Spirit with us always.
We do not need to be perfect, but we need to be good and getting better-
Elder Clark- When I got the call from Presidente Henrie I instantly thought of
all my weaknesses. I realized that yeah I have a lot of weaknesses, but I also
have a lot of strengths! I do not have to be a perfect leader, but the best kind
of leaders are constantly trying to be a little better each day.
Have the courage and vision of Mother Eve- Presidente Nelson
Elder Holland's talk was a missionary nightmare. You can't talk about moms
to a bunch of missionaries! Moms are a soft spot for every missionary! Everyone
was crying haha Love you Mom!
1. I got to travel to the far away land of Arcadia this week. My companion
had a check-up, so we got to ride with the Mission Nurse to Arcadia. California
really is beautiful. Once you get out of the valley there are rolling hills for
miles and miles!
2. My new companion is Hermana Vega from Tennessee. She moved there from
Mexico when she was little. She was STL with Hermana Day, and now she is with
me!
3. I got called Hermana Boof the other day haha I haven't heard that one
before!
4. We had dinner at a member's house and right after she had a cut up a
bunch of cilantro, she asked me if she could try out some makeup on me (she
sells makeup for Mary Kay) so she rubbed her cilantro fingers all over my face.
I am still not a fan of cilantro...hahaa
I love you so much! Thanks for all the love and support. Your prayers help
me everyday!
Love,
