Weekly Reports

Please share a few successes and/or challenges from your efforts to fulfill your missionary
purpose this past week.
It is hard to change a+er getting comfortable in my first area, but it's been better than I thought. The
ward is super awesome and the people here could really use the gospel. A lot of people don't want to talk
to us and it is hard to schedule lessons with our friends but everyday we plan and we pray and we try with
every person to help them. Nevertheless we see tons of miracles every day from the people we meet and
the places we go, I can always find gods hand in my life
What is one area you can focus on this coming week to more closely follow the principles
in Missionary Standards for Disciples of Jesus Christ?
Being more ready and in tune with the spirit so that when a person comes along I will know what they
need and I will have the confidence to be able to help them
Who did you participate in exchanges with?
Hermana Maher
How did the exchange go?
So good. I learned a lot about how important the members are in the work, how we should have genuine
relationships with the members and the people we teach to help them trust us and so that we can both be
resources and helpful to one another
Is there anything happening at home or with your family that you would like to share?
(Optional)
Is there anything else you would like to share? (Optional)

Week 75/76 White And Ready To Harvest

I had the opportunity to teach about the Restoration and the Book of Mormon in english for the first time this week!  I asked them if they assist another church, when I was trying to ask if they attend another church and a few other spanish words slipped in, but it went well and they agreed to read 3rd Nephi!   We had 2 intercambios this week. With hermana Toro and hermana Guevara. I always learn so much and enjoy getting to know the hermanas!  We also laugh a bunch and become good friends!  We picked golden berries and had fresh golden berry juice for lunch. We also ate some pastries like the ones from Brave and Hermana Ortiz told me that in spanish they don't have a scottish accent. We had probably the worst lunch of my mission this week. Cold tuna with cheese and onions on top. I didn't mind seafood before, but that was asqueroso!  On Thursday we were waiting for people to show up to english class (no one did) I decided to check my email, and was surprised to...

Week 12/76 Milagros Y Un Nuevo Mes

This week was so crazy, but first off thank you everyone who sends me emails. I love reading about your lives and hearing from you!  Other than that it's been adventurous.  We know this member and we visit him all the time. He's 95 years old and he's so cute. His daughter is at his house to help him and we just go talk to them and she always gives us so much food. She's so nice and we just love visiting with them. We visit these other members, Dora and Marisol, all the time. Marisol is blind but they're always super sweet and they always help me with my Spanish. I'm so grateful for all the members here.  On Wednesday we had a crazy thing happen. There was a drunk guy in his car and he was trying to talk to us and then we were like 'okay here's our pamphlet' and he was like 'get in my car come with me'. So we are trying to get away and we get in  another car with this couple and we thought they were going to drive us away but then they got out...
