Promised Blessings!

MOM!

Wow!  You guys are really busy!  I can´t believe that everyone wants to have the wedding in our backyard!  I guess I did a great job working in the garden....;) !  

This week was great!  My new companion is amazing!  She is from the same generation as Hna Soria, Hna Suarez, and Hna Rodriguez!  She works really hard and I love that she is helping me so much in the lessons!  

This week we have been trying to put more of the Spirit in our lessons.  We have been planning for them so that they can know that we really love them!  We had a great experience with Vicente.  He went to church with us last week but told us that he would not be able to go the next week because he wants to spend more time with his kids.  When we taught the Restoration the Spirit testified of every work and we promised him that if he would go to church that he would have more time to spend with his kids.  When he showed up to church on Sunday his son was there by his side!  I love the gospel!

We were able to find a few miracles this week.  A lot of people have been going to church for a long time but we haven´t noticed.  Now they are progressing investigators!  I love that miracles are in every place.

This week we were supposed to have 3 baptisms but we had a lot of trials Saturday and Sunday.  Sunday morning we prayed to see 3 baptisms and as we got to church our baptisms had fallen through.  But a little bit after the services we received a call from our zone leaders that the elders from Tenancingo were going to come to Atla to baptize.  We got the baptismal font ready and we were able to see 3 baptisms.  God answers prayers but I have leaned that we need to be a little more specific... JAJAJA!

I haven´t gotten my package yet but I am sure that it is in the mission offices!  Don´t worry everything will be fine!

I love you so much!

Hi mom!  

I am sorry but this letter will be a little short we have so many things to do today and I don+´t have a lot of time! 

This week was great!  We have found many new people to work with  and I think that we will be seeing a lot of new people in the church!  

Hermana Rodriguez is being transferred and I am staying in the area!  I am sad to see her go but I am excited to stay here in the area!  

I still haven´t gotten the packages but I am sure they are in the offices!

I forgot my adapter so  I can't send pictures so expect more pictures next week!  

I love you so much!

Not much to say because I just talked to you!

MOM!

Thank you so much for your advice!  I am going to work to be the best companion that I can be!  I loved talking to you and all I can say is that We had some beautiful confirmations on Sunday!  Sandy and Veronica were both confirmed and it gave them so much confidence! They are both participating actively in the church! 

I love you so much!  Thank you for the pics from home!

It's Almost Mother's Day!

MOM!

Can you believe it!  It seems like time is flying and honestly it stresses me out.  I don´t know what I am going to do and I feel like I need to work even harder!  Honestly with all of the stress of going home I have forgotten to have a little fun this week.  But don´t worry Mom I try to make the mission work as fun as I can!  AAAAAAAAAAhhhhhhhhhhh! 

I stayed in my area!  I honestly hope that I will be able to finish my mission here but I will go where the Lord sends me.  Elder Kennington got transferred and he is now a Zone leader!  We are still the only sisters in the area but I am alright with that.  More work for us!

This week was a little rough for me.  I feel like the first week is always hard with a new companion.  We just have to get into the groove of things and develop this unity so that we can continue teaching.

So much changes in such little time.

This week we have been working on finding new people to teach and it is amazing where the people come from.  I love that God prepares the people and puts us in their path.  This week we have had so many people come up to us saying that they want to listen to the lessons and old investigators that are ready to be baptized and so many other things.  It gives me a lot of hope and I hope that I will be able to help them!

Have a great week!  I will talk to you Sunday at 5 pm Utah time  6 pm Mexico time!  so have everything ready!

Love, Hermana Drew
