Feliz Ano Novo!!!

Hey everyone! Happy new year! Man, I can´t believe another year has come and gone! Time flies when you are having fun;) I will give you all a quick summary of what happened this week. 

We didn't have a chance to see S-ra, L-a, or T-ia because they were traveling. 

We had an awesome district meeting with our whole mission through zoom (video call). It is soo cool how technology works and helps us with missionary work. President talked a lot about goals and the importance of not just making huge goals, but small goals every day or even hours to help us accomplish our big goals. We also got to help the Elders move A-ia some more. We are almost done! haha. We had quite the experience trying to fit all of her stuff in the car and all the missionaries. I wish I had a picture of how squished we were. 

Even, though we couldn't meet with T-ia this week she came to church and she asked us if she could buy a bible like our bible that has all of the references from the Book of Mormon. That is one of the coolest things when an investigator has such a strong desire to learn more and wants to know everything. I think one of my favorite experiences this week was when we got to teach B-iz and her daughter M-a. They are so awesome. They came to the chapel for the lesson and every time we are talking about how much Heavenly Father loves them M-a starts to cry. She is just so pure and can feel the spirit so strong. She is only 8 years old! B-iz was so excited about the BOM! I love when people get so excited about the BOM and haven't even read it, but they still understand the importance of it. It is incredible. 

The next day we had this feeling we needed to pass by their house and so we did and we asked her if she had a chance to read and she did, but she told us that she didn't understand it very well. So, we read it with her and she had a pencil there to mark it and then M-a wanted to follow along so we gave her a BoM and she was so excited to mark it like her mom´s. It was the cutest thing!:) 

Anyways, that was our week! New year´s was just another normal day for us and we didn't see anything too crazy:) I am so grateful for the opportunity I had to be serving the Lord in 2017:) And I know that this year is going to be great! I wish you all the best in 2018!
