Hola a todos!
Estaba
pensando, y creo que sería bien chevere a hacer una palabra de la
semana en cada correo, así que comienzo con este que se ve abajo. ↓
I
accidentally put that in the subject line of an email I wrote to
Hermana Herrera. Instead of otro; other. Oops. But oh well. Live and let
die.
In otro news, we´ve cleaned our house! It
looks really, really nice. The Johnsons moved recently and we´ve
inherited a couple nice leather love seats. They really spice up the
room from what it´s been. So we had a major overhaul as well. It´s nice.
In
related news, the reason we´ve cleaned our house so well is because
sister missionaries are going to be sleeping there this week. NOT with
us, we´re going to live with the assistants and zone leaders in Inti
Raymi.
But there´s going to be a conference
with all the sisters in the whole mission. Hermana Herrera wants to have
it, so they´re doing it. I got to make a PowerPoint for it and I really
like how it turned out. But it´s in Spanish, so you guys wouldn´t all
understand it. Plus, I haven´t been able to upload it successfully, it´s
just been from my USB that it plays correctly.
Other
news, I´ve been very busy with office stuff and was able to have a
couple citas this week that were really good. Also, the sister leaders
in Inti Raymi are having a baptism this week! Hermana Mileni, she´s
really cool, I was able to interview her the other day and she´s quite
amazing. The work goes on.
Tramites in Migraciones also continue, getting close to done.
All in all, the gospel is true. I´ll share the little bit of my testimony I shared in fast and testimony meeting this week:
Scripture
study is important, if we aren´t reading everyday, the differences will
show forth quickly. We´ll get more frustrated, more tired, less happy
and just discouraged. I know because I didn´t study too well a couple
days for so much office stuff I was doing.
But,
happily, repentance exists! And works! It works miracles even! We need
to do it for reals and not just pray that our problems will go away, we
need to act. But if we do, and when we do, God puts His hand in our
lives to lift us up and help us along the way.
And
then, the Sacrament, that´s what gives us the eventual remission of our
sins. Because that´s a promise included in baptism, that our sins will
be washed away. And the Sacrament is the renewal of that covenant.
Or
to try and say it simply, when we get baptized, we get washed clean
from all the mud and gunk that we´ve gotten on us through sinning. Then
when we repent we climb out of the mud-holes we sometimes fall into
after baptism and as we partake of the Sacrament we become clean by
being washed again. A ¨mini-baptism¨ to say it as such. And we do that
each week when we worthily partake of the Sacrament, we become clean to
be able to return to live with our Father in Heaven after this life. And
that´s made possible through Temples and the eternal blessings that
await us there when we enter worthily.
Have a great week!
Hurrah for Israel!
