Hola hola!! Some things we did this week:
The district council and rainy day
Exchanges in Carmen, missed another bus
Interviews with president
Conference with the hermanas of Durazno!
Lessons full of joy
Service project weeding
One very very burnt nose. The sun is fuerte here.
Hit 14 months as a misionera!
We are teaching a 12 yr old girl who cant talk well or read so we are learning to be crrative and focus on the sinplicity of the gospel! : )
We are teaching Sabina and leaving those lessons i am just so full of Joy!! Shes just golden! The way she loves the Book of Mormon and is already reading it and relating it to her life and marking it up, and the way she said the closing prayer and said thanks for sending these missionaries to bring me true knowledge just fills my whole soul with joy! Its the best feeling! <3
Heres a scripture she had marked that i also love: 1Nephi2:19
"Blessed art thou, Nephi, because of thy faith, for thou hast sought me diligently, with lowliness of heart."
And heres a scripture we shared in a great lesson with federico: 3Nephi 27:19-21
"And no unclean thing can enter into his kingdom; therefore nothing entereth into his rest save it be those who have washed their garments in my blood, because of their faith, and the repentance of all their sins, and their faithfulness unto the end.
20 Now this is the commandment: Repent, all ye ends of the earth, and come unto me and be baptized in my name, that ye may be sanctified by the reception of the Holy Ghost, that ye may stand spotless before me at the last day.
21 Verily, verily, I say unto you, this is my gospel; and ye know the things that ye must do in my church; for the works which ye have seen me do that shall ye also do; for that which ye have seen me do even that shall ye do;"
Federico related this to the commandaments like the word of wisdom in the church. That we know what we can and cannot do. Its laid out clear for us. If we mess up we repent and can be forgiven. How grateful i am to have the gospel of Jesus Christ restored on the earth so that we know what we can and cannot do to be able to be clean and live with God again and how grateful i am for Jesus Christ who makes it possible to try again and again!!
Sending lots of love to everyone from a happy exhausted sunburnt hermana in Sarandi del Yi, Uruguay!!
