A la bibliotheca!
Hola Amigos! So this
is my first time on a computer for the last 7 months.. It feels good to be back
but I feel like such an average citizen here in the library. This
week has been crazy full of miracles! We have a family that is going to be
baptized soon! And my one of my other favorites started the Book
of Mormon this week and is already on chapter 12. There is so much
power in that book! We also got dropped by a couple people,
but when that happens we know that heavenly father is helping us make time
for the elect in our schedules.
Olga had her birthday
party this weekend and so basically every Hispanic in Vancouver
was at their apartment to hit the piñata and watch her head get
shoved in her cake. There's nothing like mingling with investigators and
members over delicious tacos and tres leche while little kids almost
getting hit in the head as they get the candy (:
Washington is more
than gorgeous this time of year and everything is blooming! One of our members
at dinner was talking about how it is her favorite time of year because it is
the season of change. Just like this beautiful world we live in, we get the
chance to become something new and start over. Out of all my mission, that is
one principle I have had the opportunity to learn from the Savior. No matter
what our natural qualities and abilities, the savior has given us a chance to
change. He has given us divine potential to become better than we could by our
mortal means. I have seen it here in the people I teach, completely leaving
behind parts of themselves to accept the happiness and peace that comes from
following the commandments of god. Even more than that I have seen it in
myself.
(I still have a long
way to go)
I hope you all take
the challenge from President Hinckley and try a little harder to be a little
better. Our prophets have been called by a loving heavenly father and I know
that the more we heed to their counsel, the more we can find love of
Christ in our lives!
Los quiero
