OH MY GOODNESS - 2 WEDDINGS THIS WEEK??????????? WHAT IS GOING ON?????????????? THEY ARE TOO YOUNG!!!!!!!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
;) But still that blows my mind a little
bit! Make sure everyone knows how
excited I am for them!!!! (Who knows if
Kara and Mitzi read my blog or not.) But
FELICIDADES!!!!!!!!
Happy Birthday to Thomas!!! Remember me, your cousin.?.?.? ;)
Sounds like you had a great day at the zoo this
week! I remember going to the zoo when I
was little; still the giraffes are the best!!!!!! hahaha Make sure that you keep that Beckham little!! Okay, that is our deal okay??
Well I don’t have quite the stories and excitement
that I had last week, but it still was an incredible week filled with a lot of
learning and feeling the spirit! I had
the opportunity to go to Juarez early early early Thursday morning for a
training meeting with all the leaders of the mission. It was really great, and well, let me just
testify (number 1,000) how inspired our leaders are in the church! Especially the Mission President. He is so great and hilarious! He and I have a really good relationship and
whatever thing he needs I am there and same for me. I feel like he is my dad.... (well, I don´t
give him hugs like you dad ;) hahahaha But
he really is inspired and I feel honored to be here in this mission. There is a lot of order - which is something I
love. We focus a lot on exactness, which
sometimes brings a lot of stress, but wow, my testimony of obedience has grown
so much!!!!!!!!!!!!! But the meeting on Thursday
was great and we stayed the night with some of the hermanas that live close
by......
Then on Friday morning we had the opportunity to
meet Elder Johnson who is the Area President for our area!!! HE IS AWESOME!!!!!!!! (speaks English of
course - you can see that by his name) But
we had a conference for about 5 hours and wow, those 5 hours changed the way I
think about everything! He knew exactly
what to say to encourage us but to also help us to improve! Something he said that stuck out to me is that
as missionaries we are here to pick the red
tomatoes that are ready to be made into salsa....
not find the green little tiny
tomatoes and pray and pray and pray that they are going to grow faster!!!!! And IT IS SO TRUE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Everyone has
their time, but we shouldn’t be waiting around for those green tomatoes that
grow a little slower! WE NEED TO FIND
HIS ELECT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And that
is what we are going to do better from now on!
I am so excited to be here in the mission! It is the hardest thing I have been blessed
with in my life! But wow is it worth
every moment! I really am starting to
realize why I am here and how I can use the gifts I have to bless others! The Lord is my light so why should I fear,
right?? Even though I don't know all
things, I know that the Lord is there!
You had some questions from last week, but well I couldn’t
find them... oh well!!! Hahahahaaha I hope you know how much I love each and every
one of you and how much our Father in Heaven loves you too!
TENGAN UNA EXCELENTE SEMANA
FAMILIA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

that is starting to look like a Mexican)
