Week 35

Hola familia! This week was great!!! I loved EASTER!!! And I am so thankful for the reminder of Jesus Christs Resurrection and that he lives! This week I also hit my 8 months which is absolutely insane! I need time to stand still for a while hahah! There is too much amazing work to do and not enough time! This week as I have been thinking about Easter and about Jesus Christ I have thought a lot about Charity! I have always loved the quote, those who love him the most will be the most like him! This week I have really thought about what the reason is that we truly do go on a mission. And I think that quote pretty much sums it up. I know that this mission is teaching me to be more like him, and to experience a little bit of what he experienced! I heard some really great talks this week about Easter and the Savior. One story that I really loved the Bishop Webb shared in Sacrament was, "There was this man who worked on the Bible videos for the church, and he had 2 young boys. And one day he decided that he wanted to take them to work with him so that they could see what he does, so he took them to the set. And on this day they were shooting the part where the savior is carrying the cross and the crowds are mocking him, and he said that the two little boys stopped them right in the middle of shooting and ran up to hug the Savior. And they said to the crowds don't hurt him he is our friend." I love that story! Bishop then said do we know the Savior, enough to call him our friend? I really do want that to be my goal! When I get back from my mission I want to be changed and I want to be more like him! I want to be able to call the Savior my friend, because of all that we have been through on this mission! I know that the Saviors love is truly unconditional, but I know that we also need to follow him and his example in order to Abide in his love forever. I want to be able to abide in his love forever! I know that this mission is how i am going to do that, because each day i get to wake up and represent him, I get to wear his name and follow in his footsteps. I have seen so many great miracles this week, and felt the spirit so strong and I know that it is because of him! I can see him in the eyes of my investigators who are changing so much! This week I saw it at Josue's Baptism! And I saw it in Blanca and her family as they watched the baptism! They have such a desire to follow him. Beth asked after the baptism if on her baptism she could wear a shower cap to keep her hair dry hahah! And Gael said that he thinks that he is ready! I also saw Jesus Christ as the lees came to church for the first time and heard the teachings of Jesus Christ! I am SO THANKFUL for my savior this Easter! I love you all so much and I hope that you enjoyed your Easter and that you could feel your saviors love as well! I know that He lives with all of my heart! I know that he is the prince of peace and that through him is our only way to eternal peace and happiness! I love you all have a great week and remember who loves you!
