PROM WEEKEND!!!!!!!!!! LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!!!!!!!! MY  BROTHER AND SISTER LOOKED LIKE MOVIESTARS. AND THEIR DATES?!! Stop!! Youre killin me!! You had me bawlin. :):):) They looked like they all were lit up with amazing lights!  I LOVE THOSE KIDS! 

NO TRANSFERS HERE! THE 2 HERMANAS are staying strong in BELGRANOOO. :) BLEGRANO! I LOVE YA! BELGRANO! MY RICH LIL BEVERLY HILLS!!! I LOVE YA! :)

AS A MISSIONARY Ive learned that when I make mistakes IT IS VERY OBVIOUS because I feel sooo yucky inside. The contrast of living at peace, and not living at peace is much greater in the mission field. I got totally frustrated with my companion on Thursday and said things to her that I should not have said.  So I decided to FINALLY break down my pride and repent. :) I can honestly tell you that when I said sorry to my comp, I felt soo much love and peace from my Savior. It was a new beginning. My comp forgave me and said shes the same way. We both asked, why? Why is it that we blow up at the ones we love the most? Ya know.. Im still trying to find the answer to this... but what I DO KNOW is that WE HAVE A SAVIOR WHO MAKES UP FOR OUR IMPERFECTIONS. IM SO GRATEFUL for this experience because I now have a deeper testimony of the Atonement. And if my Heavenly Father and companion can forgive me, I can forgive myself. :) THis life is all about messing up, but getting back up again with the help of the one who already went through it, Jesus. He is my bestest friend. WONDERFUL!!! BEAUTIFUL!!! IS WHAT HE SEES WHEN HE LOOKS AT US!!!!

I JUST RECIEVED BIG NEWS. HERMANI HEMI AND HERMANA VELAZQUEZ ARE COMPS. HHAHAHAHA HEMI TOLD ME SHE TOLD HER SHE WANTED TO PUNCH HER FACE SO HARD IN ENGLISH AND HERMANA VELAZQUEZ DIDNT UNDERSTAND ANYTHING- HAHAHAHAHAHAHA. I cant wait to see what happens with them. hahahaha.

So Easter waas such a fun day!! Sacrament meeting was the best part!! THE SPIRIT WAS SO STRONG! I wanna tell you a story that our second counselor (he was a mission pres in honduras!) HERMANO GOMEZ LADIES AND GENTS:

Its about a woman who was once was a member. She had been baptized but didnt get married in the temple. Her husband is a non  member.. but theyre such a good family. She has three little daughters:) Through talking to her sisters (who are members).. she made it a goal to get sealed to her family in the temple. Finally after her preparation her and her husband went to get sealed in the temple:) She wore HER SAME wedding dress she wore many years ago. The color was an off white and she had a HUGE TRAIN. When they got to the front the front people of the temple said that she couldnt go through with her dress. Pobrecita she was so embarassed she had her train wrapped up in her hands. Her husband as well! So they go to Hermano Gomez who also works in the temple and this is what he says: WHy not? Let her in. Jesus knows her heart so let her in. 

They gave her another dress to wear for the ordinance. When she came out she LOOKED LIKE A TOTALLY DIFFERENT PERSON. She wasnt wearing the big off white dress anymore.. she was wearing a new white dress. :) He said her whole countenance changed! She was glowing:) 

THAT IS  THE POWER OF THE ATONEMENT. THAT IS JESUS.

The story is sooo symbolic. :) It goes to show that it doesnt matter what sin we have commited JESUS WILL TAKE THEM AWAY FROM US. HES ALREADY PAID THE PRICE. ALL WE HAVE TO DO IS JUST GIVE HIM THE YUCKY GUILT WE FEEL AND HE MAKES IT ALL BETTER. I TESTIFY WITH ALL MY HEART THAT THE ATONEMENT IS REAL. LA VERDAD, ITS REALLY HARD TO EXPLAIN THE ATONEMNET BECAUSE I LEARN SOMETHING NEW FROM IT EVERYDAY. ITS SOMETHING SO PROFOUND WITH SO MUCH LOVE IT MAKES OUR HEADS SPIN. I LOVE THE MISSION BECAUSE I GET TO SEE MYSELF AND THE PEOPLE IN ARGENTINA USE THE ATONEMENT IN THEIR LIVES. BEST GIFT EVER. THE ONES WHO KNOW WHAT IS THE ATONEMENT........... ARE THE ONES WHO USE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Okay he also said in his talk.. that Jesus obeyed the will of the father. But it was his will ALSO. How interesting. He never once felt obligated to do it. It brings me back to what I learned from my second counselor in the mtc, Brother Williams. He taught about the 3 types of motivation. 3. fear- doing something because youre afraid of it. 2. duty-doing something becasue you feel the responsibilty to do it. AND 3. LOVE- DOING SOMETHING BECAUSE YOU ARE MOTIVATED BY LOVE.

Jesus had number 3. :) PEOPLE! MARIE! WHOEVER! DO WHATEVER you have to do to not feel obligated to the fathers will and keep his commandments. Its different for everyone.. its what I call. FINDING GOD. Its our journey to find him. AND WHENwe find him and feel his uncondicional love.. WE WANTTTT to choose the right. Gahh I cant stress that enough! 

Argentina. THERE ARE SO MANY JEWS AND TESTIGOS DE JEHOVA HERE IN BELGRANO!! lol its like a silent competition every time we pass the missionaries (older women) of los testigos de jehova!! But we're really sweet to them! There are a lot of churches here. But I can honestly tell you.. MY HEART SINGS every time we share the book of mormon with someone. THAT AND THE SPIRIT IS OUR MOST POWERFUL TOOL. I love love love love testifying about the book of mormon and how it has helped me come to know my Savior more. The bible and the book of mormon... peeps it couldnt get any better. I started reading the bom in octubre and im only in alma 33. hhaaha talk about SLOW! but its so nice cause Im learning so much about JESUS!!! READ THE SCRIPTURES PEOPLE! IT WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE! I read slow and stop and think about every few verses for several minutes.  Its helped me so much.  My favorite is that the scriptures that we read will come to our rememberance when we need them. Me and HT both have a strong testimony of this. The spirit is our best friend. 

I LOVE SERVING GODS CHILDREN! THERES A CUTE LITTLE recent convert THAT WE SEE WORKING ON THE STREET EVERY DAY. HIS NAME IS SAMUEL AND THIS GUY HAS THE LIGHT OF CHRIST. OUT OF EVERYONE IVE EVER MET IVE NEVER SEEN SOME MUCH LIGHT IN THE EYES LIKE THIS GUY. SAMUEL ALWAYS SAYS... SOY UN PECADOR! (IM A SINNER) BUT HE TELLS US EVERY DAY HE ASKS FORGIVENESS FROM OUR LOVING HEAVENLY FATHER. HE IS SO PURE AND HUMBLE. GODS CHILDREN SERIOUSLY AMAZE ME EVERY DAY.
