Wow
sounds like a great General Conference weekend for the good old Sutton family! For me tambien; it was great and I learned
SOOOO much! Sounds fun that you had a
little visitor and that you were nice and relaxed on the couch in your pajamas
as always... Not going to lie... I
missed it :( Nothing is better than
¨going to church¨ in your pajamas - on the couch and eating all the food that
mom loves to put on the table! And the
random field trips all over Corrine! You
guys are the best!
This
week for me was a weird and a really fast one... because I was in Juarez on
Sunday and Monday and Thursday and Friday I felt like the schedule for
everything was all mixed up and I was running around with my head off ;)
But we will keep our fingers crossed that this week will be a little bit more
normal! But Juarez was good and the
capacitacion tambien was really inspiring and we learned a lot! Our President is a funny man and he knows a
lot, so it was good to hear and talk to him a little bit! The only thing a little bit scary is that we
had to do a practice lesson in front of him so he could critic us and help us
to improve... But I think I passed so
they aren`t going to send me home yet ;) haha
… 1 … Where do
you go to write your letters? (an internet café, the church, etc.)
Well because our area
has all the shops and stores, all of the missionaries come here to write
letters. We just write in a little store
that sells some computer stuff. It is
the nicest one in Casas Grandes, so we always hurry here Monday morning so that
we can beat all of the other missionaries ;) haha
… 2 … Did you
hear the mention of Colonial Juarez on conference? Were you all excited
(if you did)?
COLONIAL JUAREZ IS
FAMOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yeah everyone
cheered when they said Colonial Juarez. We
were pretty proud ;) But also Brigham is
famous too! We can`t forget that! I think the Lord was just trying to link us a
little bit more! hahhaha General conference was amazing as always and
filled with help from the Lord! It was
such a great opportunity we had this week to share with everyone that the Lord
has called a living prophet to guide and help us! It is so unique!!!! But so true!!!!!
… 3 … How was
your trip to Juarez? What kind of training did you and Herm Jacobo
receive?
Juarez was big and a
lot of people and cars and buildings as always.... hahahahaha but it was really good! I learned a lot and it was fun to be with
Hermana Jacobo again; she is hilarious! It was a training meeting for all
the leaders in the mission, so we just learned how to be better examples and
really how to be better ourselves so that others will set their goals
higher!
… 4 … Did you
find you latest package? Grandma Reva also has sent you a letter and a little
extra?
I did get a package
but not from you guys.. it was from VALYN!
Tell her thank you times a million; it
was so sweet and all the elders loved the treats on the bus ride back to Casas!
And I also got a letter from Grandma!!! Thank you too!!!! :):):):):):):) But don`t worry, I am sure yours is coming! It will get here soon enough! :) But I will keep an eye open for it :)
… 5 … How are
the feet?
No worries - I am
fine! hahaha I think they are getting
better, but it may just be that I want them to get better that I am convincing
my mind that they are better ;) hahaha - not! I am good; no worries!
I had a really cool
experience yesterday after the conference; we went and ate dinner with a family
in our ward. The husband and wife both
served missions. We stayed and talked to
them for a while and I wish I could explain how much they helped me. The experiences they shared and the feelings
they felt were just like mine. They gave
me so much strength to improve and to learn everything that I possibly can! They were an answer to my prayers! They gave me a whole bunch of papers and
articles from their mission that helped them, and I know they are going to help
me! The Lord always answers our prayers!
My mission is such a short moment in my
life... it is like Gary E Stevenson said in General Conference, “our life here
on earth is like our 3 minutes of glory...” - well if that is true my mission
is my is like my 3 seconds!!! I need to
make every mil-a-second count! And I am
going to do just that! Every day is an opportunity
to serve God´s children, and I am going to work with all of my heart so that
one day I can stand before God and tell Him with all confidence I did my best
with the little piece of His garden he gave me!
This church is true! We have a prophet of God who guides us! We just need to listen and act and we will be
lead right to the Kingdom of God! I hope
you have an AMAZING week!!! And always
remember I love you :)
Hermana Sutton
