Hola!!!! Mi ultimo correo!

So this week we had a baptizm!!!! it was muy lindo y lucia lloro! we were running everywhere cause another rama had to use our capilla because theirs didnt have water! haha so we ran and had to have their in the morning and ours was at night. haha But everything turned out super good! then yesterday she got the holy ghost and she cried. it was super cool to see. then after that she asked me when she could go to the temple and do work for the dead. And that night they were having a family history thing. SHE WENT ALONE! and now she already got interviewed by the bishop and shes just waiting to get her membership number and then shes going to the temple in 2 weeks! im so excited for her and she was like i know that this is true and it has changed my life! it was a super cool way to finish my week and mission. 

So its time now and im FREAKING out!!!!! haha but ive learned a few things form the mission...

1. God loves us alot

2. He is ALWAYS preparing His children to accept the gosple. 

3. This work isnt about you or me, its about helping others come unto Christ

4. having the spirit 24/7 is AWESOME!

5. people might come running at you but dont get freaked out... they might wanna listen :)

6. people screaming ELDERES! at you and you waving and saying HOLA! even though you are a sister and saying so can we share a message with you, is the best feeling ever

7. Seeing people come unto christ and seeing the light of christ on their faces stronger and stronger as they grow more and more closer to Christ. 

8. Having a lesson FULL of the spirit to where its hard not to cry and then leaving and turning to your compañera and saying what just happened.... that was awesome! 

and many more things....

but this i know with all sureity..

That God lives. He loves us and for that He sent His only begotten son Jesus Christ to help us in this life. So that way we can have gozo and return to live with Him someday. Jesus is the Christ. With out Him there would be no point in living here. We need a Savior and for that reason He came. Trust in Him. Pray to Him. trust that He will lift you us in your trials and difficulties. He is always there. I know that people can change. You are never to far away from the light of the Atonement. He is always reaching out to you. Trust in His Atonement and come unto Him. I know people can change because ive seen it. Its super cool to see. I know that missionary work is all about being an instrument in His Hands and letting Him work through you. I can tell you haw many times i have had somebody tell us that they were just crying and praying for help and we knocked on the door. God knows His children and loves each and everyone of you. If you feel like you are forgotten and that He loves somebody else more, just pray and ask to feel His love and you will. I know that this is true. I know that this church and the gosple is true. I know that it can change lives for the better and that we can have joy in this life. I know that Christ lives and that He came and willl come again. I love this work. i love this gosple. And i say these things in the name of Jesus Christ amen.

Im so excited to see all of oyu again.... if i cry dont be worried haha! i might be having culture shock.... haha to my own culture! haha  

Love you guys bunches!

This week!

So this week was pretty crazy.. so we visited Lucia and she is ready for baptism!!!! we are super excited and this week we should be having her baptism this sat!! she has her interview tomorrow but ya!  we are super excited! she was at church yesterday and she was saying all the right answers and participating in the lessons and total! it was so cool to see! 

Also yesterday at church this man randomly comes up to me and my comp and is like where's the bishop i have to talk to him! i want my kids baptized and standing right behind him was 2 twin boys. they are 15 years old and want to be baptized! turns out that the man was baptized over 10 years ago and went inactive and now wants to come back to church! and now his boys want to be baptized as well! so yesterday after church we went to their house and now the boys have a date set for the 18th of march! we are super excited! im just kinda sad cause i wont be there to see it! but  we have been praying for a miracle of finding investigators and they just showed up to church! so it was super cool! haha! God listens to our prayers and always has his will. Sometimes we just have to be patient but he will always give us blessings. 

And I'm kinda freaking out about coming home and that I'm starting my last week here in the missino andI'm  freaking out! haha but just this morning i had my last interview with presidente and ya... I'm like sad to leave here. but I'm coming home paraguaya ite! hhaha no but really i feel like i have changed a lot in the mission but through everything that has happened i have realized that God always has a plan for us. Trials are a way of refining us so that way we can be someone better. rely on the atonement of jesus christ. itisn't  only for sins but also for our pains, mistakes, and everything inbetween. I know that this work is a work of God. Its a work of LOVE for all of God's children. 

I have one more monday left so I'll be writing next monday!!! 

Anyways love you guys lots!
