Getting Transferred!

¡Hola Todos!

So I recieved the call that I will be leaving 25 de Mayo and am going to be transfered! I cant believe that I have been here for three months already. Time goes by fast when you are working hard and having fun. They are doing transfers different now, so we will see what happens, but I got the call last night and I will be leaving today in the afternoon, so short time. But Im so grateful for this time I have had here, for the few, but strong members that are here and for all I have learned here. I havent progressed and grown more in my life than in this three months. The mission for me has made me love the gospel so much and I know that it is true.

Spiritual Experience of the Week: So this week, I finished what is called the first twelve weeks or the training part of my mission. Almost every morning, we have an extra hour of studies to study about it. This last week, we studied and focused on our purpose as missionaries, which talk a lot about baptism. We realized we needed to invite more people to be baptized to see more success and have more baptismal dates, and guess what, it works. This week we found a family with eight kids! We taught them really quick one day this week the Book of Mormon because they didnt have a lot of time, and returned on Sunday. We were able to teach almost all of their family and invited them to be baptized, which they said yes. This helped me strengthen my testimony a lot on our part. Sometimes it is as simple as that in our lives, if we just do. Do what Heavenly Father asks of us, Do what our leaders and prophet say, Do what our parents say. Application is so important.
The Gospel doesnt do anything for us unless we apply it!

Scripture of the week: ! Nephi 15:24-25. I love this scripture that gives us great promise. That if we read, we study, we cherish, the scriptures, we will be strengthened and never be lead astray. I have gained a huge love for the Book of Mormon on my mission and really know this to be true.

Fact of the Week: There are a lot of supermarkets or stores here called Chinos. Which literally means Chinese people. They have a deal or something and they come here to open stores. So ya.

Funny of the Week: This week we had a branch activity at the church. A lunch and some karaoke haha. Some of them were very passionate or expressive when it came to singing and it was hilarious! Karoake is always funny and fun wherever you go haha. They wanted us missioniores to go up and sing some songs as well and we kind of killed the party, but hey what are you going to do. (Que va a hacer)

Until next week!

All is Well
