Hola everyone!! Sorry if this is late!! Yesterday
we had an actividad de zona and it was so much fun!! I had cambios and I think Presidente
got sick of seeing me every Sunday J ha-ha just kidding. I got sent to one of the
areas that’s farthest away from the city. Its called Marcala in Zona La Esperanza,
it’s one of the prettiest and one of the coldest areas in the mission. So it
means that I am in a pueblo!! Sometimes the lights go out at night, the showers
aren’t heated, and we don’t have a washer or dryer, but you know what? I love
it so much!! It’s so cool!! I love my companera, she is from El Salvador and
she just finished training, so she’s a little timid and shy. I can testify that
the Lord listens to us. I was asking for someone that will help me be bolder,
and because I am with her I have to take the lead and be an example for
her.
This area is awesome for
working... everyone is super open and listens to you. For General Conference
our mission had the goal of bringing 6 people and one family to church, we were
able to bring 7 and 2 families. J The really hard thing is that everyone is inactive because they
don’t like the branch president. There have been some issues in the past.
This past weekend with Semana
Santa and Domingo de Pascua (Easter) I want to focus on the atonement. With all
of the talks that focused on the atonement. It’s so important that we recognize
and remember why we have the atonement. Without it we wouldn’t be able to live
with our Heavenly Father again and be clean of everything that we have done
wrong. Christ fills our lives with the things that we falter and it’s our responsibility
to share this message with everyone and give everyone an opportunity to know
it. Be an example, share the gospel, and do temple work!!! The temple is
critical!! I love the temple so much and beings 5 hours away from one makes me
realize how important and how special it really is. I love you all so
much!!
