Hola! This week was good, I feel very much accustomed to and
am enjoying the mission life. Last week Hna Platino helped me make the same
decision that Pres Hinckley made on his mission, to forget himself and get to
work. I committed (better late than never) to really give my all every day, in
every study, every lesson, physically and spiritually. It has really made a
difference.
3 weekly highlights-
1 Paola (Nicole's mom) and her family are going through some
rough times, we were able to visit her with our district leader and they gave
her and her mom priesthood blessings. It was a really sweet experience. I felt
so strongly that they are daughters of Heavenly Father and have so much
potential because of this! Keep them in your prayers, and especially that Paola
can have the strength to close her little store on Sundays so she can come to
church. They are in a tight spot financially but she knows she will receive
blessings for doing it.
2 We are teaching a 16 yr old girl named Liza and she is
progressing so much! She is really excited about everything and fulfills her
commitments that we leave her and she came to church yesterday! We are working with her to be able to be
baptized 13 of Dec.
3 Yesterday before leaving the pension Hna Platino prayed
that we would be able to find a family. Later on we were walking and I
remembered a man I had seen in the corner of my eye outside his house a few
blocks back and felt like we should go back. Whenever I have these impractical
thoughts it's hard to know if it's just a random thought or if it is the
Spirit, you just have to act and by the results you will know it was really the
Spirit. We went back and his wife let us in and we taught a lesson to her and
their 4 kids, it was really a good experience. We will keep visiting them and
see how it goes! Keep them in your prayers too (Familia Diaz).
Well I hope all is well in the States, enjoy your turkey
while I am eating empanadas and alfajores! Love you all!
