Week 71

Feliz Navidad!!! Feliz Navidad, Feliz Navidad prospero año y felicidad!!🎅🎄

  I hope you all had the best Christmas in the world!!! I loved seeing all of your beautiful faces yesterday!! And being introduced to my soon to be sister-in-law and the new puppies Rue and Bear!!! It was an amazing Christmas!! I think one of my favorites. Every Christmas I just get this confirmation from the spirit that the Savior lives and that he loves us. There is nothing like spending Christmas serving him and his sheep!! My favorite Christmas Gift this year was the Gurrolas baptism and confirmation!! They were baptized this Saturday and Confirmed on Christmas eve!! It was quite the event!! They are amazing and have amazing repentant hearts!! IT was great to see there desires to change and follow the Savior. I know and I have a testimony that it is never to late to come unto Christ. After 70 years on this earth that is what they have both chosen to do. I LOVE THEM!!!

       ON Christmas eve it was super fun!! We had the opportunity to deliver cookies to less actives and to go to church and we got cute presents from ward members. And we went over to the Gurrolas for a lesson and to make cookies and Abuelita!!(Mexican hot chocolate!!) We also had 2 dinners and I was sooo full by the end!! Then that night me and my companion watched Legacy and did face masks and opened up our gifts to each other! She got me a journal!!! It was so sweet. Then on Christmas, We caroled to a 96 year old and we had a lesson teaching the Plan of Salvation to Yuri our investigator. ANd we skyped home!! ANd we ate Tamales for dinner!! ANd We went to a sketchy chinese place for lunch! hahah, it was 1.35 SCOOP!! hahahah, but I didn't get food poisoning. Then we taught some members and shared the story of Christ's birth and we taught some less actives. IT was a great day spending it testifying of the Savior!! I love this mission and I am absolutely loving every second of the time I have to serve him!! I wanted to share my one of my favorite scriptures about the Atonement and the Saviors never ending love!!

3 NEFI 9:13-14

13........will ye not now return unto me, and repent of your sins, and be converted, that I may heal you?

14 Yea, verily I say unto you, if ye will come unto me ye shall have eternal life. Behold, mine arm of mercy is extended towards you, and whosoever will come, him will I receive; and blessed are those who come unto me.

I know that he loves us and that he is just waiting to heal us!! I pray that we will all consider what we need to do in our lives to come unto him and be CONVERTED that he may heal us!! 

I love you all more than you know and I hope that you can continue to focus on the Savior all year round!!
CON AMOR, Hermana Tams!💜❤💙
