I truly love them and love this culture. I can reflect back on my mission and see that the times I was truly the happiest is when I was helping others to feel of God's love for them and come unto Christ. I know that I have made eternal friends, and Ive learned things from them that have changed my life. I have seen that helping others to come unto Christ has helped me personally to appreciate the Savior in my life and recognize the need I have for Him each day. </span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">It says in a very well known scripture, "And if men will come unto me I will show unto them their weakness." Looking back at the beginning of my mission, I did not understand that phrase. I wondered "Why is this so hard if I am choosing to serve God?" I felt weak and so uncapable of so many things. There is a scripture that I have come to love on my mission in Jacob 4:7. "Nevertheless, the Lord God showeth us our weakness that we may know that it is by his grace, and his great condescensions unto the <a href="x-apple-data-detectors://0" dir="ltr" x-apple-data-detectors="true" x-apple-data-detectors-type="misc" x-apple-data-detectors-result="0" style="-webkit-text-decoration-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.258824);">children of men</a>, that we have power to do these things." I know that because of the many weaknesses I have, I have been able to get to know my Savior and feel of His grace in my life as a missionary. I know that He is perfectly capable of making up for our shortcomings. I know that if we exercise faith in Him, he helps us to make our weaknesses strong. I know that Christ performed the <a href="x-apple-data-detectors://1" dir="ltr" x-apple-data-detectors="true" x-apple-data-detectors-type="misc" x-apple-data-detectors-result="1" style="-webkit-text-decoration-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.258824);">Atonement</a> because He loves us and wants us to be happy, and we are so lucky to have divine help that we can receive of each day if we seek it.</span><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">I look forward to new experiences ahead as I come home and have the chance to reflect on the things I've learned on my mission. Everyone always says that they dont go a day without thinking about their mission, and now I understand why. The lessons learned are lessons that will help me throughout the rest of my life.</span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">YAYYY sounds like Ill be seeing everyone REAL SOON! :) Love you fam!</span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Hna Richan</span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Mission Christmas Party</span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9YrMmt8IOc8BlFSYG2aC8wEcHeUJREfNDyIRfJs1kiKoyKy0v94ZW1u70qybq41LVCLnjgpvSkWYR31NHS_G1DMlSPSThmqTKwadjPkuig6tlH9c1l3jScKLWpkauUJUgIsHw4XnTNJs/s640/blogger-image--454660383.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9YrMmt8IOc8BlFSYG2aC8wEcHeUJREfNDyIRfJs1kiKoyKy0v94ZW1u70qybq41LVCLnjgpvSkWYR31NHS_G1DMlSPSThmqTKwadjPkuig6tlH9c1l3jScKLWpkauUJUgIsHw4XnTNJs/s640/blogger-image--454660383.jpg"></a></div><br></span></div><div><div style="font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody;"><br></div></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-42267796728699736.post-48506578757277691042016-12-05T14:16:00.003-08:002016-12-05T14:17:16.099-08:005 December<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">Getting online today was the first time it hit me that i will be home NEXT WEEK. After the best year and a half I cant believe that my time as a missionary is just about up. Lots of up and down experiences that have helped me to grow closer to my Savior, and have a better understanding of how important it is to share the gospel at all times, even if it just by our simple example. I know that if we make Jesus Christ the center of our lives, we can do anything, overcome anything, and have a better understanding of God's plan for us. </span><br />

Grateful for a lot of things this week. Hope you all had a good Thanksgiving, because I did!</span><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">This past week we got a surprise phone call that we were going to be traveling to Piura to have a leadership cousel with Elder Hugo Montoya of the Seventy. Tuesday we headed out and we got to stay with the sisters in Algarrobos (my old area) so it was awesome to see a few members from there. </span></div><div><font color="#000000"><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><a href="x-apple-data-detectors://1" dir="ltr" x-apple-data-detectors="true" x-apple-data-detectors-type="calendar-event" x-apple-data-detectors-result="1" style="-webkit-text-decoration-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.258824);">Wednesday morning</a> was the leadership cousel. I loved it because we all went with questions and doubts that had to do with missionary work, but I felt like ALL of his answers came down to love and service. I realized that somethimes we complicate a lot of things, but everything comes down to being more like Christ. Loving everyone and serving as Christ would solve a lot more problems than we sometimes think.</span></font></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">We headed back to Tumbes, and Thursday morming Elder Montoya came up to speak to all of the missionaries. While he was teaching, he had all of the missionaries that were in their last transfer stand up. So i stood up, and he told us that we cant think to go back to how things used to be, we will never be the same. The change is permanent, and we should never look back.<br>Later he opened up the time for us to ask questions. I asked him for an example from his like when he had had a permanent change and learned from his past instead of returning to it. He went on tp explain that he was a rebellion teenager, but after he had come to know Christ on his mission he never looked back, and kept moving forward in the church with his callings, relying on Christ. </span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">At the end, two people were chosen to have interviews with him, and i was one! In the interview he asked me how I felt about the answer he gave me, and if I had anything else to ask him. So I asked him about HOW he came to know Christ on his mission. He went back to service. Through searching all of the little service opportunites that he could, he came to know his Savior and felt that He was helping him along the way. I know that is true. There is a reason they send kids out on missions, so they can come to know their Savior by serving in order to have a permanent change. Im so grateful that I have felt that change in my life as a missionary, and am excited to keep serving and getting to know my Savior. </span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Which is why im SO excited about the new iniative in the church "Light the World" which gives us the chance to serve every day of December. I know that by serving as Christ did we will become more like him and we will share the light that we have as members of the church, and others will want to participate as well. So fam, i hope youre all participating!</span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Love the gospel and love the peace we find in knowing we have a loving Savior,</span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Hasta pronto</span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Hna Richan</span></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-42267796728699736.post-67609912643484018192016-11-21T19:18:00.004-08:002016-11-21T19:18:41.272-08:0021 November<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">News on Arturo and Jasmin...

Alver has FINALLY told us that he wants to get baptized. After keeping it a secret for so long, he let us know. He asked his wife, Leydi, to help him out. To keep up on reading the scriptures and praying as a family. We took him to do family history in the church, and he loved it. He is feeling the spirit even more, and is just waiting to be more constant in doing the little things so that he can choose the day to be baptized. Love their family.<br /><div>

This week i was studying a little bit about Korihor. And how he wanted a sign that Christ existed. And Alma simply explained that isnt everything around you enough evidence? Everything shows us that there is a god. And it made me think about the times we dont see God's hand in our lives. But are we even looking? When we pray and expect an answer, are we doing whats necessary to receive it? Or are we looking for the tender mercies in our lives? Reminds me of when Alma is teaching his son, Helaman. The way is EASY. Just LOOK and you will be saved. We need to look towards Jesus Christ, follow Him, and it's easy. When we promise to always remember Him, we need to notice what He is doing for us each day, and LOOK for Him in our lives. And that is when we are the happiest and life is the easiest. </div>

But after some changes we had the BEST week. A lot of miracles came our way and it was a good confirmation that he had made good changes in our area. </span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">First off... One day we were walking down the street and we hear "MISSIONARIES," and we look over and see this girl with a baby sitting down on the side of the road with her mom and sister. We went over to talk to her, and she told us that her name was Yasmine, and that she was a Mormon, and used to go to church with her grandma in Pampa Grande, but now she lives in our ward boundaries but has never gone to church. Then she told us her husband wasnt a member. so we made an appt to see them, and invited them to a ward mission night. And they showed up! Her husband, Aurthur, came, and was a super cool guy. With 2 cute little kids. The next day went to visit them, but Aurthur was working. On Sunday, they showed up to church and afterwards Yasmine asked us, "So how can my husband get baptized?" We looked over at him and he just shook his head like YES. It was awesome. Only problem is that they are not married... but nothing we cant do! And they are willing to work towards it.</span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Next, we were teaching a less active woman and her brother in law, Arnaldo, walked in with his kids. We asked him if he wanted to join in, and he said yes. And we taught him about the Restoration and invited him to be baptized, and him and his daughter were willing to. Later we went back to visit them, and turns out his wife, Mavi, really wants to come and learn more about the church. A really receptive family, what weve been looking for!</span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">We received another referral from Hna Paola, the lady we live with. Her name is Esperanza, and she works with Paola. We went to visit her and her daughter Gabriela, THE BEST. Both of them have been to church before, and loved it. So we are excited to work with them, and it always helps having friends in the church.</span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">We had a "Dia como Misionero" on Saturday. A bunch of youth came and we took them out to work with us, etc. It was a cool experience for them, a lot of people that are wanting to serve. I spoke in the fireside the next day. And i was thinking a lot about how i felt before the mission, and i can now look back at how much ive learned and i cant imagine how my life would be if i didnt come. So grateful that God knew better than i did what i needed to do with my life!</span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">and...

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
This week in Leadership Counsel we talked a lot about family history. And how important it is to do it with converts. This week we were helping out Leydi, Alver, and Carol with their family history and its amazing how much they love it. I think Alver's favorite part of the gospel is knowing that his family can be sealed, so we are trying to talk about temples a lot more with him, and he just seems more excited about the gospel. He has been coming to church so I think he just lacks a little bit of confidence, maybe doesnt feel like he is good enough to be baptized. He's great, almost there.<br />

His parents are members but he isnt. So we were like "YEAH we wanna teach you!" And the next day, before we had taught him, he showed up at church with his parents. And both of his parents got up and bore their testimonies about how happy and grateful they were that their son was there.. Later that day was the lesson, and he said that 2 years ago he was just about to get baptized, and backed out. But now he is ready again and has a date <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_245258247" style="border-bottom: 1px dashed rgb(204, 204, 204); position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">December 17</span></span>! We have been praying to find new people through members so God answers prayers. :)</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We also have another super cool new person to teach. The elders had a baptism <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_245258248" style="border-bottom: 1px dashed rgb(204, 204, 204); position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">on Saturday</span></span>, and her sister that lives in our area came that isnt a member. And we found out that her husband has been a member for years but is not active. The lady getting baptized bore her testimony and invited all her family members to listen to the missionaries because of how much the gospel has blessed her life, so we are excited to visit her sister, Patty. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We saw a lot of miracles this week! We were kind of hitting a point in our area where we were a little frustrated, and we decided to make a lot of changes, and this week God blessed us a lot! Grateful for every chance i have to change and repent, and Im grateful for godly sorrow, and that God always helps us to recognize things we need to change so that we can come closer to Him. He loves us! Love you all, have a good week. :)</div>

It was really interesting, Hna Rasmussen talked about Eve and the two trees. And how Eve, by eating the fruit, allowed us to come into the world (like all women do), just like how Adam (through the priesthood), allows us to get back to God. It was interesting to look at it from that perspective. And then as i was reading "Believing Christ," it gave a really similar comparison. That Mary, by being human, made it possible for Christ to physically die, and God made it possible for Christ to overcome physical death. God's plan is so interesting and so perfect, love learning about it. Always awesome learning from Pres. and Hna. Rasmussen, theyre the best.</span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"> Alver came to church YAY. He has changed a lot, and he keeps telling his wife, Leydi, that he wants to get baptized, but we wont tell us. So new goal: get Alver to tell us he wants to get baptized. We just keep praying for him, he will come around soon. :)</span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Paulo is also progressing really well.

We asked him what a big doubt was that he had had all his life was, and he literally quoted Joseph Smith, "if there's only one God, why are there so many churches?" And we were like WE have the ANSWER. Always amazing teaching the Restoration to someone who has never heard it before. </span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Love the mission, cant believe its November!

They are planning to go again in April, and it makes me realize HOW blessed we are that if we wanted, we could go EVERY day! These people do all they can to pay and have the chance to go to the temple. Its really a test of faith for them! But it makes them appreciate it so much more.

Daniela's nephew. He wants to change his life SO bad, has seen so many changes in his family's life.

Just makes things really interesting around here. This week there was a Señor de los Milagros fiesta right in front of our house, the whole street was decked out with banners and baloons. We actually had plans to visit a bunch of people around where we live this week, bad idea because when we went to visit them they were busy decorating. :) But its easy to spot out people who need the gospel!

It was my LAST one, which means I had to give my "last testimony." And i was SO SAD! Every "last" makes me sad. Love this place, and love all of the things that I have learned out here. But we talked about what it means to be a disciple of Christ. And we talked a lot about how the ordinances we do help us to come unto Christ, and know Him. Got me so excited to go back to the temple! I know that is where we can go to have added strength in our lives in order to be better disciples of Christ. </span><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">On friday we had intercambios, and me tocó with Hna Spainhower!

I think more than anything he is scared and feels like he isnt good enough, so we are hoping to help him gain a better understanding of Christ's role in his life.

Alver is CHANGING. Before he seemed like he knew the church was true, but wasnt really willing to change. This week we were teaching him, and he told us that he had been thinking a lot more about baptism but just didnt feel prepared. So we got out of him that he hasnt been drinking for over a MONTH. But he sees all these less actives drinking all the time and he doesnt want that to be him. Which is awesome, he is taking this very seriously and wants to make sure he is converted before making the decision. but FINALLY he accepted to be baptized <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_1621388979" style="border-bottom: 1px dashed rgb(204, 204, 204); position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">november 5</span></span>. :)<div>

Lil Aaron was baptized <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_1621388980" style="border-bottom: 1px dashed rgb(204, 204, 204); position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">on Saturday</span></span>. :) It was cool to see that he had a lot of family supporting him. His uncle is a bishop in Piura, and his great uncle is the pátriarch here in Tumbes. And his grandma takes him to church everyday here, even though his parents are very less active he has great support all around him! The smartest kid ive ever met. </div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
Its been kind of a crazy week with people here. LEAVING US. Katerine, coolest most receptive and independent investigator, moved to PIURA! She told us how much she loves the church and everything it teaches, and begged us for the missionaries' info in Piura so that she can keep learning and going to church there. So im a little sad about that, but obviously so happy for her and I know she will be a golden investigator in Piura! Also another golden investigator, that was a member referral, Luis, moved to Chiclayo! After giving him the Book of Mormon he read all of 1 Nephi and loved it, and then moved away. So two great investigators moved this week but in leadership counsel this week President gave us a cool promise, "If you send good referrals, you WILL receive good referrals." So we are banking on finding some cool people to teach this week. :)</div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
Also Harold, convert, moved to Cusco this week. Love that guy, one of the most humble, sincere people I know. Hard saying bye to great people.</div>

A lot of good things to come in Tumbes! I get more and more excited to share the gospel as I learn more about Christ and His atoning sacrifice. Ive been trying to be really diligent about studying the Atonement, and it amazes me more and more every day. I know that Christ justifies us because of his infinite perfection and infinite sacrifice. If we are on His side, We can overcome anything and do anything. </div>

<div>
<span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">more area updates next week, but our investigators are all progressing really well, and after teaching the cutest 11 year old boy (comes to live with his member grandparents on the weekends) he is getting baptized Saturday. Its gonna be a good transfer!</span><br />

<span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">I loved conference! Of course I loved Elder Uceda's talk, peru mission shoutout. I went into conference with 2 questions.... A lot of times in the mission God has answered my prayers in the weirdest ways, and a lot of time hard things for me to accept. So I went into conference thinking about how I can accept God's will and do what He wants instead of what I want. And also how can i make prayer sincere and spiritual every time I pray. And I was thinking these were two questions that had nothing to do with each other, but finds out they have everything to do with each other! If we pray for things without real intent, it is going to be really hard for us to feel the power of prayer in our lives. And real intent IS being willing to accept the answers God gives us because we love Him, and want to do His will. I thought about how Elder Uceda denied the impression 3 times to turn back, just like I received 3 answers that i needed to serve a mission and it was STILL hard for me to accept. But i know that whatever answers God gives us they are for our benefit and we will be happier if he do His will. Just like I will be forever grateful for the impressions I received to serve a mission, it has changed my life in so many ways and i know that God sent me knowing I would be happier and be better off! Plus it is the best helping other people to be happier.</span><br />

<span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Daniela (the cutie in a lot of my pictures) is a convert of about 2 months. She had an INCREDIBLE conversion, after heavy drinking and partying, she changed completely. And her best friend, Sergio, basically stopped talking to her and didnt want anything to do with the church. Made fun of her for it. And my first week here, he decided to go to a ward activity with Daniela, really liked it, and came to church the next day. And since then we havent really pushed him into anything, we have just been his friend and he was warmed up A TON to the church, told us he wanted to stop drinking, and that he wants to get baptized at some point. And that was without telling him ANYTHING just being his friend and showing him that life can be fun without drinking. :) So it has been cool to see how much he has changed in just the little bit of time we have known him.</span><br />

So this week i was in intercambios with Hna Rodriguez (from California), and we went to visit him. Turns out after a lot of family problems, even an attempt to kill his wife.... He has the greatest desire to change. He came to church again on Sunday and seems super happy. So we will see what happens!</span></div>

<span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Im not sure if ive mentioned Katerine before but.. She is AWESOME. She randomly just started coming to church and taking part in everything. Has a lot of doubts about the Catholic church, so that is what sparked her interest. She went to the general womens conference and baptism with us, and loved it all. I love her because she is very sincere, and tells things how they are so it is easier to answer her questions and help her understand the gospel. </span></div>

Her little grandpa is a member from a different ward, so we searched him down where he works to ask him in he could baptize her. He was so excited that he had found and were teaching her grand daughter, and was excited to baptize her. Sooo Saturday, at the baptism, we were waitinggg and waitinggg and he never showed up. It was supposed to <a dir="ltr" href="x-apple-data-detectors://2" style="-webkit-text-decoration-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.258824);" x-apple-data-detectors-result="2" x-apple-data-detectors-type="calendar-event" x-apple-data-detectors="true">start at 5:30</a>, and we were gonna watch the womens conference at 7. And by 7 we were still waiting. We told Carol we could wait to do it on Sunday, or a missionary could baptize her. She was so excited and ready to be baptized, and decided that an elder could do it. So Elder Meier ended up doing it with pants that were like 5 sizes too big. After a few safety pins and paper clips, the pants fit and she got baptized. :) It all worked out well, she was so happy, and we finished with the last little bit of the womens conference. Happy day. :)</span></div>

Sooo we basically cleaned out all the garbage and junk we had in our room, and the elders did it too, and we threw it all on a table and had all the members create things. And then we talked about the talents that God has given us. :) Worked out good, got rid of the random junk in our room, and the members/investigators went home happy with their new creations. :) </span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">We are teaching the cutest little 15 year old girl, Carol.

He talked about how he had a lot of trials all day Saturday, but how they were all super easy for him. How it was like Satan throwing all these trials at him right before he got baptized, but God was helping him and it was a lot easier than he thought. So he knew he was making the right decision. His testimony made me think a lot about the mission. SO many hard things, but somehow (I know it's with God's help), and if we put our trust in Jesus Christ, our burdens are light and it is so much easier. I'm so grateful that God has helped me to see that it really is by HIS grace that I've been able to do hard things.

Hna Spainhower is keeping things interesting, shes teaching me how to eat juevitos (mini quail eggs), how to sing Peruvian music because shes got the words down. Maybe because IT NEVER STOPS PLAYING. If you wanna listen, look up combi. And this week we conquered the task of opening cococuts. Life is good in Tumbes, sometimes I tell Hna Spainhower that this place reminds me of Provo. Shes thinks im crazy, sooo Im in for it when I go home!</span></div>

<span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">I was thrown out here to gradually learn English again... 1) English compi. 2) We have an investigator from Ukraine named Julia. But she speaks 4 languages, and we teach her in English. She is soo sweet, super great. Comes to church every week, and super receptive. I feel so much more love for the gospel in English naturally so I love teaching her! There are always random gringos walking around in this place, so we stopped and talked to three girls this week from Holland and Germany. I automatically started talking about the Book of Mormon and Jesus Christ to find out after that they didnt even believe in Jesus. Made me realize how different it would be to be serving a mission in a different country, I'm so used to thinking everyone believes in Christ. I'm grateful to be serving in a country where everyone believes and has a basic understanding of the Savior. </span></div>

<span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">We have an investigator, Harold, who is getting baptized this Saturday. Hes AWESOME because he has so many real questions, real interest in the gospel, and real concerns. He is good friends with all the YSA (okay I am too I love these people here!) and he fits in really well with the ward. It is good knowing that investigators will be taken care of after they are baptized.</span></div>

<div>
<span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">The work is awesome here, I feel super blessed to have already met I the people that I have met. It amazes me the miracles that are seen everyday in the lives of these people. And when people are ready to receive the gospel, it is never anything that the missionaries did, it is simply God's hand in their lives and we are just there to find them and help them find the truth. I have been reading in Alma about Ammon, and it is true it is all God working through us and there is SO much joy knowing that people are truly being converted to the gospel!</span></div>

And we could never meet them because they were gone all day every day. So we gave him baptism paperwork for his parents to sign and he said NO PROB.</span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Next day, he told us his mom finally had a little bit of time, so we decided to go talk to her about the baptism, and how Harold was going to need the support of his parents, and basically to tell her about how important this covenant is that he was going to make. And she didnt let us in, just stood at her door and told us that she wouldnt sign the paper. And that he had already been baptized in the Catholic church, and she wanted him to focus on his studies, that he hadnt listened to us long enough, etc. MASSIVE list of excuses, but we could tell that she was a good mom, just wanted what was best for her kid... And she didnt have any knowledge of the gospel. So we explained the difference of baptism in this church and invited her to pray about it, and we told her to have Harold share his testimony with her. And she still wasnt budging. We left it at that.</span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Harold told us he would talk with his parents, and didnt seem too worried about it. SOO a couple days later, Harold told us his dad decided to sign it. But we still wanted his mom to be okay with it, so we passed by his house. And his mom answered the door, handed us the paperwork and said, "We know this will be for the best, and we want to go to his baptism and learn more about the church." WHAAAT we were SHOCKED she changed SO much. We have no idea what happened, or what changed her, but she had a change of heart.</span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Soo YESS Harold got baptized! His mom and sister were there. Super cool, classy, nice family. And now that they saw his baptism they invited us to teach them and it was a MIRACLE. Awesome day, so happy for him. :) Future missionary.</span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">I had another exchange with Hna Sandison THE BEST. Shes so funny, we were just laughing the whole time. We found the COOLEST new person, Hna Flor, who was super prepared. We explained the Holy Ghost before teaching her the Restoration, and after we taught it, she told us that was exactly how she felt. Calm and happy. And we explained baptism and she said "How can I get baptized like that?" And told her to pray to know if our message was true, and that she was going to feel the Spirit, but she told us she already felt it. Accepted to get baptized in September, awesome. </span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">But opposition in everyday, a man came up to us and asked us to preach to him. So Hna Sandison starts talking about the word of wisdom, and then he quotes a scripture about how you have to be clean to enter the temple of God, and goes on to tell us that women with their mentrual cycle cant enter the temple. Sometimes people like to interpret the Bible way too literally.</span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Update on the rice.... Turns out there was probably a whole bag of bad rice because we found worms ALL WEEK. I couldnt do it anymore, and my prayers were answered because im now out here in TUMBES! Out in the middle of nowhere, new world out here, on the border of Ecuador, and with HERMANA SPAINHOWER. From Payson, UT, first gringa companion. Which means my emails are about to get way more interesting because everything is automatically 100 times funnier out here where youre with someone who can laugh with you. Tumbes is a dream.. I feel super Latina because its been over a year since ive been with Americans... So i told Hna Spainhower to help me out. Then she asked me if i knew i was coming to Tumbes. And i said "Yes actually, I had a dream." Hahaha first Latina strike. Everyone here believes in their dreams. But its true I had a dream i was coming and im SOOO happy to be here.</span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">LOVE this work!

"...for <b>there can no man be saved except his garments are washed white</b>; yea, his garments must be washed white until they are cleansed from <b>all stain</b>, through the blood of him of whom it has been spoken by our fathers, who should come to redeem his people from their sins." It doesnt matter what the sin is, we have to be completely clean from everything. Ive been thinking about all the little things that hold us back from being clean from ALL stains. Music, thoughts, TV, movies, internet. All these things that keep us from doing the little things that we should be doing.. Reading the scriptures, serving, etc. If we change the LITTLE things, if we listen to better music, manage our time on internet, remember the important things, and make more time for God in our lives, we will feel closer to Him and be more prepared for Christ's coming. But even when we feel like we are living good lives, there are always little things we can improve to be closer to our Savior. </span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"> </span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Peru experience of the week: This week a man came up and talked to us and was like "WHAT are you doing DOING around here, its SO dangerous.

It turns out that Robert always talked about how he wanted to go to the temple, so that is why Diana started listening to the missionaries. When we were heading out to the wedding, we said a prayer beforehand. And Robert thanked God for helping him to keep this commandment, so that they can prepare to go to the temple. Loved it.

She is incredible. I love seeing the influence of one baptism. For her desire to learn about the gospel, her husband was able to come back to the church with a stronger testimony than ever. Her dad is now interested in the church, and in December she wants to go to the temple to be baptized for her mom, and in a year go to the temple. It is a huge testimony to me of how much the gospel blesses families, Diana and Robert have overcome so many things in these past few months, and now they are better than ever and blessing their families too. Love seeing how happy they are. :)</span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Everyday I realize more and more how incredible the gospel is. I know that we are part of God's kingdom here on earth, and we are so blessed! But everyone has the same potential to receive the gospel blessings. That is something that helps me, thinking that God knows the potential of each one of us, the potential to become like Him. I know that the Atonement is so personal for each of us, and we can each reach that potential.</span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><b style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;

Super prepared, it is just sad that his kids are super mean to him and dont want him to go to church. He comes to church every once and awhile, but he gets there right after the sacrament every time. He wants to get baptized more than anything though. This week we taught him the word of wisdom, and he was so concerned. He looked at us and said, "Hermanas i had nooo idea. I drink coffee everyday. But from here on out I guess Ill just eat my oatmeal." It was the best. Super receptive, and super sincere. </span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Theres this cute little member that always goes out with us, Casimira. And we passed by her house on my birthday. And she pulled out these stuffed animal cats to give us, and hna orellana told her it was perfect for my birthday. She has no idea that it was my birthday, and told us, "I had a prompting that i should do something for you guys, it was the spirit!" And now every time we have a lesson with her, she testifies to the investigators that athe spirit led her to give me this stuffed animal cat... We are gonna have to invite her to testify on a different topic next time. :)</span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Diana and Robert have been struggling this past week. Just relationship problems that they were having before they started reading the book of mormon and going to church. And this past week they didnt come to church, and they stopped reading the BOM. But they recongize that that is their problem, and realize that it is normal to have problems right before baptism.

He has been expecting some type of sign from God that this is the direction he should go, and he hasnt received anything. It is hard for him to understand the role of the spirit in knowing that the church is true. He is always praying to know, he reads the book of mromon everyday, and he has been coming to church the last few weeks. I know that if he keeps progressing like this he will be able to recongize his answer by the Spirit! But after church this week he was the happiest we had ever seen him, we hope that he will be able to notice the changes in his life since he has started living the gospel.</span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Robert and Diana are like active members of the church. :) We are just waiting for <a dir="ltr" href="x-apple-data-detectors://0" x-apple-data-detectors="true" x-apple-data-detectors-type="calendar-event" x-apple-data-detectors-result="0">the 23rd of July</a> to come so they can get married. Yesterday we ate lunch with them, and they were asking us so many questions about keeping the sabbath day holy, being worthy to take the sacrament, etc. They want to do ALL they can to be as obedient as they can be. Its incredible. And Diana asked us "When is the soonest day i can get baptized? I wanna get baptized that day."

It was fun to catch up with her and here about the awesome things she is doing in Miguel Grau (my birthplace). She helped me to remember how important it is to talk to EVERYONE because we never know why we pass by the people we do, and who is prepared. And everyone deserves and will have the chance to hear about the restored gospel.
