Found faith when I lost it



Dear Family,

WOW what a change. Transfers always always always suprise me. HAHA! IM IN TIGRE YALL! Its so cute! And my comp is so great! ANOTHER LATINA FOR HERMANA TERRY!! WOOHOO! Hermana Traverso.:) Shes from PERU! I have such a good feeling about this place. IM SO READY TO FIND GODS CHILDREN AND BRING THEM TO THE WATERS OF BAPTISM!!

SO yesterday was my last day with BABY V. WE CRIED OUR EYES OUT. I MISS HER SOOOO MUCH. She taught me so many wonderful things. Shes staying in Juncal and I know shes gonna rock it! AHH MI HIJA!!
So Erica accompanied us for the last time to go teach people and her testimony is so beyond powerful. We started talking to this woman on the street and talked about how much she loves her family and that her husband is an alcoholic but loves him so much! She said she could never be a part from him because she trusts Gods plan for her and her family.Peeps I felt the Holy Ghost when she was talking saying to my heart, I am so with this woman and her family, always trust my plan!  It was kinda amazing. AND THEN OUT OF THE BLUE.. Erica starts talking about the trials we have in our life and its like rain. We get wet.. were cold and we feel like we can never get out of this trap and then when we dont realize it.. the sun comes out and it creates a rainbow. She testified that God will give us light and help us feel at peace during these trials. ME AND BABY V stood with our mouths hung open. WHHHAAAAT? WHO IS THIS GIRL?! Is this the same Erica that we met 2 months ago that had so many family problems and so little faith? UHH YEP. SAME GIRL. Gahh. She told me shes moving to tigre now so that she can accompany us on citas. What a gem. Love that little conversa of mine. :) Erica is the reason I showed up in this city, and maybe my mission. 

OKay so I feel so thankful to God right now. We went to the temple friday and I realllly felt the spirit hit me. The song kept playing in my head, Come thou fount of every blessing. My heart was filled with so much gratitude for the mission God has blessed me with. To be in Juncal.. even though it was so hard.. I was so thankful that God helped me through it all. I felt in the temple that God had another plan for me.. and what do ya know.. IM IN TIGRE!! :) Haha. Hermana Vargas has changed my life. I grew to love that girl. We were soooo close. Everyone called us the dynamic duo! :) I felt thankful for having times when I lost the faith. Its weird when I felt like I had no faith left.. THATS WHERE I GAINED MORE FAITH. MORE STRENGTH. MORE PPOWER. I feel like I can do anything now. When Holland talked about where much is given much is required.. the spirit told me.. YOU ARE ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE! I HAVE SO MUCH MORE TO GIVE and im ready to give it all in Tigre. God has blessed me so much.  Im excited to be a training leader.  It will give me more fun interaction with these precious Hermanas.

Conference was so great. Henry B´s talk on moms bday filled me with tears as he talked about how his mom waited for him every night he stayed out late and would talk to him about his life. He said he was so grateful for those moments and it made an impacting change on him. MOM I just want to thank you for all those nights you stayed up for me. I know without a doubt that you and dad receive revelation from God on how to help your children. Thank you mom and dad for everything. I love you guys so much!! 

well wish me luck peeps. hope i find mi plataaa. :)
chau!! CARRY ON CARRY ON CARRY ON!!!!
