Week of Repentance

Image
Sorry for not explaining last weeks email. But it was a scary week, but everyone is okay. There were just some serial killers going around the high desert, and yeah... we had some weird experiences. But this week was a good one! Rhonda will be baptized this Saturday so we are so excited! And Felipe is progressing really well and decided to buy hot chocolate instead of coffee this week!  We sat in a lot of meetings though, like MLC and zone conference. Elder Whiting from the seventy came... Everyone got called to repentance, like normal. But this was the type of repentance that everyone is acting on. So that's good. I love this gospel so much! Because of this gospel, I know that change can happen. Christ made it possible for each of us to return to our loving Father in Heaven. I love it! Also today we went back to my first area, Wrightwood, and went hiking with Sister Hubler. So that was a party. I am loving my mission so much! SoCal is l...

The week of horrors

So this week was a little crazy and long. And I am so grateful for the sacrament that we were able to take yesterday. It truly does make a difference. I am so grateful for the chance that Christ gives each of us to restart with the sacrament! Love it! So I went on two exchanges this week and they were crazy! But I forgot to take pictures... whoops. But they were super fun! So life is good and this ward is doing great! We helped Aletha and Inez, the cutest ladies, decorate a Christmas tree! We were happy about that, but they didn't want to be in our picture, so here is a picture of us by their tree. I love being a missionary and I love this gospel! Please choose the right! Also keep me in your prayers cause I got loooooooots of meetings this week! :) -Sis. J

Hey Fam! Guess what! The area presidency is now allowing us to do family history one hour a week! I am so excited! I learned so much last week, and now I know how to do it... kind of. But it is mainly so we can share with others how to do it. So I am excited to learn more and to teach about it. Cross on a dead whale? Also, we had an amazing lesson with Manuel. We taught him the Plan of Salvation and honestly, his mom, who had passed away a while ago, was totally there! We talked about how he too could be baptized for her once he was baptized and now he is planning on being baptized in December! But honestly that was probably one of the best lessons ever! The spirit was in complete control of the lesson. The temple Also, Brianna and Eddie went to the temple! It was bomb! Brianna is all about that temple and family history now. She is a bright light for her family. Happy Halloween! It was a great week, and if it weren't for great members none of these miracles woul...

So life is good. We had a busy week full of service and miracles! Cleaning up Hesperia On Saturday we were able to go to a service in the community to go clean up the desert. Honestly found a lot of desert treasures, and a lot of garbage. The Hesperia Sisters Then we went to a community Halloween party to do more service. It was put on by a cancer place, so every family there was being affected by cancer. It so amazing to hear their stories and talk about how God blessed them in their lives. The zone Breanna is going to the temple tomorrow! So we are excited for that! A piece from home! Found Gossners at the 99 cent store! And guess what! Rhonda is teaching us how to crochet! So that's exciting. I'm not good at it, but she said if she teaches us she will feel better about obeying certain parts of the Word of wisdom. You do what you got to do :).
