Week 49

Hola!!!! Como estan? Ojala que todos tuvieron un buen dia de los pioneros!!!

 My week was great! I am still so grateful to be here in Vail for another transfer! It has been a great week! Well this week was crazy busy and crazy fun. We went to Hna Jazmins Baby Shower for dinner in our ward. And we got her baby a cute Sunday dress! We also obviously had Pioneer Day on Sunday. It was a really special meeting because the youth in our ward had just gotten back from Trek on Saturday! It was amazing to hear their testimonies and how it changed them. They all talked about how at first they felt like they didn't want to go and that they were complaining a lot. And they said that by the end they had loved every single experience! They shared really special stories about the pioneers. I love thinking about the pioneers and their legacy of Faith! But my favorite thing to ask myself is if I am depending on the pioneers and their Faith or if I am doing something today to keep that Faith going! Then we also had MLCs this week ( Missionary leadership Council). And i absolutely loved every second! I learned so much! We found out that for Zone conference I will be giving a training on Member Lessons. And my favorite training was by President Gifford. 

  He showed us a video from the Missionary council, and it talked all about the legacy of Faith that we have to keep alive! He quoted Elder Uchdorf! And in the video it said "Are we sleeping through the Restoration?" AND I LOVED THAT QUOTE! Because when many people think about the Restoration, they think that it ended with Joseph Smith! But in the Standard of Truth it says, The standard of truth has been erected, no unhallowed hand can stop the work from progressing. Persecutions may rage, mobs may combine, armies may assemble, and calumny may defame, but the truth of God will go forth boldly, nobly and independent. till it has penetrated every continent, visited every clime, swept every country, and sounded in every ear. Till the purposes of God shall be accomplished and the great Jehovah shall say "the work is done!" And in the video it talked about how the work is NOT done!!! Their are still those who have yet to hear our message! So this week, we have been asking every member this question, and i want to ask each of you the same question. "Are we maintaining the church, or are we helping to restore the church?" I know with all of my heart that their is still a lot of work to do. Whether that is Temple work, or family history work, or visiting teaching, or missionary work! IT DOESN'T MATTER! But as members each of us have to put our hands to the Plow and NOT LOOK BACK!! We need to be committed and we need to help Restore the church in every part of the world! I am so grateful for this training! And I am grateful for my little part that I get to have on my mission in this Restoration! And i pray that when i get home that I wont stop for a second! Because I know with all of my heart that this work is the most joyful work that I have ever done. It HAS changed me! I cant even describe the Joy I felt when our Family of 4 walked into church this family, all together and ready to listen and to be changed! I LOVE this work! And I love this family! i CAN NOT WAIT to see them in White!! 

 I am so thankful for the Pioneers example for me and for all of your examples as well I am thankful for the legacy of Faith that we do have in our family, and I pray that each of us will work hard to keep it going so that one day we WILL have No Empty Chairs! I love you all and i hope that you have a great week and that you work hard to do your part to Restore the Church! 

CON AMOR, Hermana Tams! 🌸🌻💙💚💜
