June 2015



Well, I have one transfer left and they moved me! Haha here in the
mission you gotta do what the lord commands. I was sad to leave,
really becauseI really thought that I was going to finish my mission
in that area, but God has different plans, that I am sure are better
ones. changes can always be good.
I sent some pictures of the coolet people in the world! haha I know I
am probably exagerating but they really touched my life. The SeƱora is
the mission doctor, she lives in the area that I just left. She is
amazing! She cares so mucho for all the missionaries and really loves
the Lord. I can feel of her love for the Savior by the love that she
has for us as missionaries. I remember her giving a talk in church
about the word of wisdom that really was more interesting than any
word of wisdon talk I have heard. She talked about what a blessing it
is that we can be the ones who control our bodies, because God loves
us so much that he gave us these bodies. She always has words of
encourament and love for all.
The one of the family is the familia Larracilla. They accepted us so
well from the very beginning. They took us under their wing and always
cared so much. They would always tell us of their spiritual
expierences and also, we would have spiritual expierences together.
Now, I am in the same stake as I was at this time last year, where it
RAINS every day! haha I am really excited! These shoes better last me
till the end of the mission!
Love you all lots!!

Well, I can for sure say that this is time of my mission is different
than any other time. So, you know this area is really close to one of
my past areas, Nogales. Well, I have heard some good news from that
area. Miguel, one of the people that I taught at the beginning of my
mission, got his call to Tampico! It is so exciting, and his brother,
Misael, is sec. in the young mens. They are both so old now!! Wow, it
is so weird. I saw some of the members on sunday, the ones that are in
stake callings. It was a really happy reunion!
This area is big and we are basically starting from the first step, I
am hoping we can lift it up and make some miracels happen!
My comp and I are very different, but I think it will be a really good
thing, because we make up for eachother.

I havent taken any pictures, but I will try to take some this week and
send them.
Love you all!

Well, that was an adventure, and guess what, I dont have very much
time again. This week has been interesting. We started teaching a
young lady that has been to church twice. She is really great and on
the path. Her name is Tania- we actually have only taught her one time
because she goes to school in the afternoon and it is really hard to
find her, but we have lots of faith that she is going to progress.

Also, we have been working with a less active family, and they went to
church on Sunday! Also, one of the people who lives with them is not a
member. His name is Felipe. He recieved an answer that Joseph Smith
was a prophet and actually he is the one that is helping the family be
motivated again. They all remembered when they had recieved their
answers.

I actually lost my voice this week, so that was fun. My poor new comp
had to go out with members even though it was her first week in the
area. What a trooper! The Lord tests us in all kinds of ways.

I have been remembering that it all really depends in our trust in
God. We just have to believe that he will be there in all that we do
and follow his will.
Sorry it is short again! But you know the mission!

Love you all!


Due to diffent circumstances, we dicided to write early this week, and
I am digging it because I feel like I have a ton more time right now.
My companion and I had fun this week, really bursting out trying some
new things. Putting in all that we had, and it was really fun. Things
are not exactly constant in the mission, you never know what could
happen next, so you always have to be on your toes.
One of our investigators that we have been a little bit relaxed about
told us that he wants to follow forward, get married to be able to get
baptized. So that is happy! We are hoping all goes well and that they
will be able to get married soon. We found someone AWESOME this week
named Stephany. She love fittness and nutrition, she is a cyclist (it
reminds me of my aunts and uncles). She accepted baptism really fast
and went to church yesterday really excited. She was a refferal of
the counselor to the bishop. We are having lots of fun teaching her!
She actually invited us to eat with her in like an hour, so that is
fun!

Yesterday we talked in church! I talked about how no effort is wasted,
how it really is worth it to share the gospel. It really is true. We
never know when someone might be ready to recieve the blessings of the
gospel in their life. We also dont know who might be listening. I
shared about how Abinidi preached to a people that really did not want
to listen to him. they actually hated what he said. The killed him.
With us it is not that extream, but sometimes people really dont want
to hear it or even get offended. But there was one person that was
listening to him who ended up becoming a prophet. Alma! Alma wouldnt
have been if it were not for Abinidi, and after Alma came a whole lot
of really cool conversion stories- imagine the book of mormon without
Alma! Thanks to Abinidi, who followed the commandment of God and
preached to a wicked people, many people were brought to a knowledge
of the gospel.

I know that every little thing that we do to share the gospel is for
something. Share it! even if you get laughed at or rejected. Follow
the spirit and be blessed!

They also asked me on thursday to direct the choir. I can officially
say that I don't know how to do that, but I did it haha.

I am reading in the Book of Mormon about how mad captian Moroni gets
at wickedness. It is funny how many times that it says that he got
angry and so he sent his army. He was a really smart guy, he made sure
that everything was strong first. That is a priority that we must have
as well, and we can do it spiritually through scriture study, by
feasting upon the word.

I am loving it here, even the hard stuff! Love you all!

Hermana Jensen


This week was fun, we found some people to teach that really have been
prepared by the lord. To the point that they had gone to church last
week, before we knew them. God is blessing us.

I had a really inspiring study this morning and I wanted to share what
I felt. I read in Helaman 11 and 12. It is talking about how they were
in war, and Nefi pleaded that he would send them a famine instead, so
that they would remember God. So God sends the famine, and they repent
after a time. But then, once they start to prosper, they become wicked
again...

How really sad it is that we often forget God in times that he is
blessing us. All is going well, we are prospering and we forget that
THAT is the promise. It even says that Nefi prays that God will
continue to chasten the people so that they dont forget Him.

I hope that I remember in times of trial that it is because He loves
me and I hope that when all is well that I will know that it is
because God is blessing me.

Sorry it isn´t much this week, but read Helaman 12.

April 2015

SO CONFRENCE WAS AWESOME. It is different in spanish, not gonna lie,
it is a little bit harder to connect to even though I understand it,
it just doesn`t call out in the same way, but I got to watch most of
the Saturday afternoon session in english, so that was cool. I really
loved Elder Andersons talk, it made so much sense to me, and I just
started laughing, because that situation with the Navajo man I could
just picture happening. It reminded me a ton of my grandparents (g&g
Roundy) that served in Arizona and told me stories like that. I just
loved it. And we really do need to make sure we are in tune with the
music of the Spirit.

Also, they have talked about shakespeare 2 of the confrences that I
have been out here, and I loved the refrence made. Really we are not
defined by who we were, but who we are.
I can really say that I passed though a lot and that not all of the
decisions I made were the greatest, and I keep making mistakes, just
like all of everyone that has existed and will ever exist. Besides the
one who made it possible to become who we are.

Also, something that I have been learning that was confirmed is that
the Lord is advancing His work, and it is going to advance. With our
help or without it, it is going to advance. So we have to make the
choice that we are going to be a part of it. It has been the greatest
to put my whole heart and soul into this work, and I plan on it being
like that forever!!

Sorry it is short, but Love you all!

This week has been crazy! So some Hermanas had to come stay in our
house a couple nights. They still worked in their area, but they were
here for the night. It was so weird, like a sleepover, but with rules.
I have actually had to do this a few times in my mission, and it
always is crazy. I have SUCH a testimony of obedience that I really
always am very insistant that we go to bed on time, wake up on time,
and all that. I didnt notice how naturally it had started to come to
me until this week. I really know that we are blessed according to our
obedience! It is different in the world, I am sure- but the
commandments are from God. There is a part in the mission manual that
says that when we accepted our calling, we accepted to live the
standards of the mission.
Well, I relate that to life. When we decided to be baptized, we
commited to follow Christ and to keep Gods commandments. Every
covenant is a promise, that we will be obedient because we love God.
Not because we will be blessed, this is a plus.

Everyone feels Gods love in a different way. There is a Hermana here
that has lost her eye sight, and she is so compassionate, grateful for
everything and cares about everyone. There is a cute less active
hermana that her dog died the other day, and she remebered that even
though it was hard for her right now, God loved her and she came to
church.

They asked me to sing in the Choir, so I we are doing that! It has
been fun, it is super las minute, like you think the ones in the home
wards are last minute and impossible sometimes but not compared to
here! Ward conf is next week! I remember when they set me apart they
said I should use my musical talents and I kind of that that was
interesting, but without even looking for it I have done it.

Also! I am in a trio for 2 weeks, Hermana Rodriguez (from California)
is leaving to her home in 2 weeks and they sent her here! I am excited
to work with her, it is fun to work with those that are getting ready
to go!
I still have a lot of time left and I am going to put my all into it!!
I love you all and I love this work. Sure, salvation is individual,
but I really understand the Savior a little bit more and I really hope
that everyone can recieve it!

OH! I have not sent pictures in so long and I feel so bad about that!
I have been so caught up in all this that I actually havent taken that
many! But I will try to send some more frequently now!
Repent every day. Start where you are. Do more without stopping what
you are already doing.

Hermana Jensen


I have like 0 time right now, but I am gonna do what I can.
so we are three for one week more, that has been interesting and fun,
and also different.
Little by little we have to make goals and organize, that is what we
have been doing. it has been good having an extra hand in everything.
It is crazy, in the mission you see people at all states of their
missions all the time. Hermana Sanchez has 8 months and Hna Rodriguez
is finishing next week.
I am exited for whatever comes this transfer. I am feeling really
ready to put all that I have learned and all I am into this time.
Something that I loved from this week is that we got to sing in the
choir in Ward Confrence. I loved it so much, they asked me to sing a
parts of 'if the Savior stood beside me' and I have realized that I
really love that hymn.
Sorry this is the lamest email ever, but just know I am doing well and
I love you!

March 2015

         Welp, I was only in that area for 1 transfer. I am here in my new area, Magisterio! It is like 40 minutes from where I just was, in a different stake. I am comps with the Hermana Sanchez. She has 7 months in the mission. We have a lot of work to do in this area and I am excited. Haha so it has been a long couple of days. Sunday (whoa that was yesterday), we had a baptism! It is a single mother that we have been teaching for this whole transfer whos name is Marisa. She is so adorable. She has 2 kids named Nestor and Cristian. They are so cute, Cristian is 7 and Nestor is 6. They live humbly and she is really the sweetest spirit. Since step one she has been crazy willing, just wanting, to know the truth. Even though this transfer was rough, that for sure made it worth something big.It was hard to leave this area so fast because when that happens it just feels like you are just getting established and then you kinda get ripped out before your roots are fully developed. But I am excited
for what waits me here!

I love you all and wish you all the best
Hermana Jensen


There is so much that is happening I don't know what to tell you all and I don't know where to start. So you all know that I got to my area on Monday, and basically since then I have been trying to get to know it. For the port, it is a large area. It is really pretty, there is green and little reserves of water and the people are nice. Something
really cool that I have noticed here is that the members are really nice. There is a lot to be done here in this area, and I have been starting. Litte by little we are working to gain the confidence of the members here, put things into order, be ready for whatever comes. It is pushing me, because sometimes as a missionary, there are some interesting challenges that pass that you might not expect. One of these that I prayed not to fall into was the pattern. To just do everything the same all the time. Welp, it for sure didn't come in the way I expected, but my prayers have been answered. I am grateful for your prayers and the strength that you send my way. I know that it has made all of this possible. It is what keeps missionaries going. I understood very little about mission life before the mission, and now I understand one thing perfectly: it is unpredictable.

     We have been teaching a man named Felipe. He is really great, always really happy and receptive to the teachings of Jesus Christ. In my week here, I have seen him make changes. That is what happens when
someone really lets God in.

I am really grateful for the power of the priesthood here on earth. Through that, we have a connection with God. He really directs us if we let Him. That power should be used in a worthy way. I am also grateful for temples, we can recieve eternity through them. The temple presidency talked in our ward. I don't know if you remember this, but the temple President was in my first ward! It was great to see him again. It was ver spiritual and made me miss the temple, but what really got to me was that the temple presidency sang "if the Savior stood beside me" together. Three grown men singing a primary song really with all their hearts. Sure, we always have to be changing, gettting better, coming up with a better way, but sometimes, that way is just doing the simple.

If the Savior stood beside me, would I do the things I do?

Would I think of his commandments and try harder to be true?

Would I follow his example? Would I live more righteously,

If I could see the Savior standing nigh, Watching over me?



If the Savior stood beside me, would I say the things I say?

Would my words be true and kind if he were never far away?

Would I try to share the gospel? Would I speak more rev’rently,

If I could see the Savior standing nigh, Watching over me?



He is always near me though I do not see him there,

And because he loves me dearly I am in his watchful care,

So I’ll be the kind of person that I know I’d like to be,

If I could see the Savior standing nigh, watching over me.

That is what this gospel is, doing the will of God is as simple as doing things as if he were standing beside you. I testify that He loves us. I have felt that love. I know it is true, and that is enough to make it all worth it.



Hermana Jensen



I remember back in the day when my emails were super good and I took time to write and I wrote things down from the week. I am sorry that has changed a lot, but you learn to find out where your priorities have to lie sometimes.

I have still been ajusting to my new area, it is a good one. I have been applying what I learned at one time in my mission about making goals and taking things little by little because it can be a little overwhelming sometimes, but there was a talk from the Liahona (the church magazine here) this month that helped me learn and understand a
little bit more about that.

https://www.lds.org/liahona/2015/04/it-isnt-a-sin-to-be-weak?cid=HP_TH_3-26-2015_dPTH_fLHNA_xLIDyL2-2_&lang=eng

a lot of the time, we as humans may feel very weak. but something that this little article said helped me "while sin inevitably leads us away from God,weakness, ironically, can lead us toward Him" I know that as we trust in God, we will be made strong. We are weak, and when we realize it, we will see the need to depend on him.

which reminds me of this video: http://www.mormon.org/easter

This week Felipe let us know that he felt the spirit in church and that he really wanted to continue. I am really excited for him and this path that the gospel provides!

Love you guys lots!

February 2015



     Welp, Random transfers! Well, I just didnt tink that I would get transfered and I did. It still doesnt feel real, and they were weird this transfer because they were this morning, on Pday. So I am here in the area "Brisas" (you say it like breezas) in the port of veracruz. I am with Hermana Korzeniowski, she is from Florida! I hardley know her up to this point but she seems super cool and I am excited to work hard. It was really hard to leave Hermana Dearden because I love her so much, she is fantastic, but I know the lords plans are better than ours.

     The other day, she and I had a memeber come with us to some lessons. Actually, I think I talked about this memeber last week, Margarita or "mago". She shared an expierence that impacted me a lot. We were sharing about the Atonement, and the spirit was really powerful. Then Mago presented a situation that I really loved. She asked us to think of the love that we felt towards Jesus Chirst for what he did for us. To think of how it made us feel and the influence it had on our families and loved ones. Then she asked us a question that made me really think. She asked to imagine what we would do if God asked us to do pass through what Christ passed through. It really made me think.

      Christ was willing from the beginning to save us. He gave us the way, and by not commiting sin, showed us how we could do it. Even though it was the most difficult thing that has ever been done or ever been done, He did it. He did it for me and for you. I know that no one else could have done it. He was capable, because He is the most like God. I know that because of Him and only through Him can we overcome not only the fear of death, but death itself. That we will all be resurrected. I also know that just by doing this does not mean that we will be able to enter into Gods kingdom. We have to be perfect. But we are not, and that is another reason why his saving and healing power is the only way. We can be free from all sin, error weakness and all things wicked if we will just look to Him! Open up our hearts and accept Him! I have really seen that happen to people here and I know that God answered my question that I needed to come on a mission for many reasons, but the main one being the knowledge (person and for others) of the saving, healing and changing power of Christ and His Atonement. He has changed many that I have met. He has changed me. We just have to let Him.
In the name of Jesus Christ, amen.

Hermana Jensen



     Well, first of all, this is going to be a crazy email because I have no idea what kind of direction I am going to go with it. But I feel like it will be good because this week was really good. It has been really long, I can't believe that monday I just had transfers. I ca't believe it has only been a week. Crazy. 
Okay so this time has just gone by so fast and I am actually in the offices writing this week because we came to get shoes for my comp in the centro and we ran into the couple missionaries! the companionship Willingham. They invited us to go eat with them, and we went and had hamburgers in a rock cafe, it was actually really cool, they know a lot about music and told us some cool stories about J. Golden Kimball- the swearing apostle. (mom, I think you would love to know more about him). They just pretty much adopted us, they work here in the offices, and invited us to come back and write our families here. They are so great!!
I got the christmas package! a little one and a bigger one with the stocking! I love you guys!

     So this week, we had a confrence with the area presidente, Elder De Hoyos. We really reciveved so much from that, something amazing is that changes are constant. If we want to keep up with the Lords work, we have to step up the pace. We can´t just conform with the way we get comfortable, the work can´t be something comfortable. It is hard, it is always in need of a better way. We have to be active. We are called to change, every day. There is no falling into a system, because God always has a better way. But to find that way, we have to try it. We have to re-mold ourselves, not just fit ourselves to the mold. That is how we become perfected in Christ, we try something new, follow our impressions and be always willing to change.

     God trusted us. We have hard moments, but that is when we have to remember that we are His children. He made us. The way of the Lord is not our way. His is higher than ours, and we our the ones who open up our minds to the capacity to be something better. 

    We have to increase our faith, because God knows who we are and our potencial, we just have to inline our vision with His. 

I love you all.

Remember that faith cannot be passive. We have to act.

Hermana Jensen



      It have been a long week, but good totoally comes even when it is rough times. We have been working with a young single mother whos name is Marisa. She is so great. She basically came into this without any knowledge of who God really is or what religion is or anything. She has been coming to church and reading the Book of Mormon and everything. It has been great to teach her.

      Yesterday the stake president talked in church and let us all know that after the mission we should be getting married, so that was scary. But he also talked about being converted and how cool Matthew 10 is, and it really is. Jesus Christ really loves us and is the only way.

     We have been wokring with goals and plans to become better people. Sometimes it is overwhelming that we always have to be changing, but it is really amazing, because someday we will get there, and God is proud of the people we are becoming.

I didnt write much today, but I love you lots,

Hermana Jensen



      Hey guys! It's me again, just like it is every week. Hope you are all ready.

      So this sunday, I talked in church. Man was it horrible. Seriously, I was so nervous because I am new in the ward and it has been some time since I have talked. I had lots of good ideas, but I just could not get my point across. But, that already happened and I figure that if I couldnt quite get it across at that point that at least someone should be able to benefit from what I learned.

     I had studied this week for some reason the story of the woman at the well. If you know me, you know that I really do like that story. But there are things that I hadn't really noticed before, or that I had forgotten.
(john 4) So Jesus meets the Samaritan woman at the well and asks her for water. Then he tells her about the things that happened in her life. He also lets her know that the things in her life will not satisfy her like the gospel will.
 "13 Jesus answered and said unto her, Whosoever drinketh of this water shall thirst again:

 14 But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life."

By telling her this, she recognized that he was something more than just a man, and asked Him, hinting that He could be Christ, and He confirmed that, letting her know "I that speak unto the am he"
What really gets me here is this part,
 " 28 The woman then left her waterpot, and went her wayinto the city, and saith to the men,

 29 Come, see a man, which told me all things that ever Idid: is not this the Christ?

 30 Then they went out of the city, and came unto him."
She went and told everyone about it! She Had a spiritual expierence worth sharing, and used her testimony for others to come to know what she knew
"39 ¶And many of the Samaritans of that city believed onhim for the saying of the woman, which testified, He toldme all that ever I did.

 40 So when the Samaritans were come unto him, theybesought him that he would tarry with them: and heabode there two days.

 41 And many more believed because of his own word;

 42 And said unto the woman, Now we believe, not because of thy saying: for we have heard him ourselves,and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Saviour of the world."
We cannot force others into having a testimony. All that we can really do is invite them, and they can come to the knowledge themselves. The Samaritans based their testimonies off of that of one woman, a woman that probably was not thought that highly of, having had serveral husbands and living with someone who wasnt- Just a normal woman from the well. It reminds me of another story that I love, that I have studied lately, but in the Book of Mormon.

King Lamoni and His wife and all of his servants had like their first really spiritual expierence...(alma 19)
"16 And it came to pass that they did call on the name ofthe Lord, in their might, even until they had all fallen tothe earth, save it were one of the Lamanitish women,whose name was Abish, she having been converted untothe Lord for many years, on account of a remarkablevision of her father—

 17 Thus, having been converted to the Lord, and neverhaving made it known, therefore, when she saw that allthe servants of Lamoni had fallen to the earth, and also hermistress, the queen, and the king, and Ammon layprostrate upon the earth, she knew that it was the powerof God; and supposing that this opportunity, by makingknown unto the people what had happened among them,that by beholding this scene it would cause them to believein the power of God, therefore she ran forth from house tohouse, making it known unto the people."

    SHE RAN and told everyone what happened. House to house, taking advantage of the situaltion, regonizing the chance to share the gospel. 

     I admire these women, even though they might have seemed like someone small on the sidelines, they made a huge difference in the lives of many. Later in both of the stories, it mentions that many of those who listened where converted becuase of the small testimony of these women.
We should all be like them! Sharing the gospel. Having spiritual expierences and wanting to share them with as many as possible. People will build from our testimonies until they find theres. It reminds meof a talk by Elder Holland, you should all watch it- 


I love you all and know that we are imperfect, but that God wants us to feel love. and he wants us to share it.

January 2015

Haha well the time is almost up and I thought "probably should email my family at least"

    This week was crazy beacuse we had to go to the port and have a meeting, we went on divisions with some of the other sisters in the zone, and we had zone class and lots of things. Crazy things that make us tired. But I am doing well. Nothing like a day of preparation to help me get back to normal. 

      So when we were in zone class, an Elder from the zone area that is next to ours came up to us and started apologizing because he had accidently gone into our area and started teaching someone there. They are pretty much ready for baptism, and we are super excited! Her name is Reina. Her daughters are also interested, and her grandkids. It is pretty much a miracle. 

     My companion is seriously great and I am learning so much from her. She is super weird just like me, we make everything really fun. She is super great and I am very happy to be with her. We are learning lots and working hard. Even though it makes me tired sometimes, I love the work!

      We are sturuggling a little bit to work with the members, but we are working with that. We are super trying to make sure everyone is very strong and ready when they get baptized. 
Still have not got your package mom, I am sure it is on the way!

Love you!

Hermana Jensen



    Welp, this is gonna be little. 
     
    We are working hard with a reference that we got so that she can be baptized, she already is ready, but oposition comes like crazy. No worries, all will be well. She has so much faith.

    I have been learning so much here in the mission. I think that something we sometimes do as missionaries is like divide up the gospel into some kind of sections or something, and it can seem really choppy. But I learned from good ol´ "Preach my Gospel" this morning that it really all is one message: that the fulness of the gospel, Gods Plan of Salvation, has been restored here upon the earth through a prophet, and if we follow it, by keeping the commandments and performing the ordenances, and thanks to a loving Savior, we will return to live with God.
I know this is way short, but I love you all lots and want you to know all is well.

Hermana Jensen 



Hola!

    This week was seriously so crazy! Reyna got baptized! She was so excited and so happy to finally be able to do it, but let me just tell you that the adversy did everything in his power to try and stop her from reaching that font. Let me just start.

     So She was supposed to get baptized last Sunday, but we had to postpone her interview that was going to be wednesday to Saturday. We dont usually like to do that, but she was going to mexico city with her daughters. She was supposed to be back by friday, so we changed her interview to saturday. Then, on Friday she called saying that the money they were supposed to recieve to buy gas to get home had not come through yet, and they had no idea when they would get home. We were sad, but confident that she would be baptized. We have seen her conviction and desire, as well as her knowledge grow. She ended up getting home on Sunday night. We changed her baptism date to that Saturday.

     Wednesday was her baptismal interview, and she did really well. Our district leader told us that she was  one of the chosen. Saturday came and it was time for her baptism and we recieved a message that she was going to be late because the other grandma to her grandkid just showed up, and some legal stuff was happening. We waited so long! she called us and told us 1 more hour after we had waited 2. My companion must have sounded pretty sad beacuse she called us 2 minutes later saying she was on her way! She told us when she showed up that the other lady was talking to her and she stopped her and said "we cant do this right now, because I have to go get baptized. You can come with me if you want, but I have to go" The lady came! It was late, and the members had left to eat, but she got her baptism!

   It was a crazy week, but Gods power is stronger. Love you all!

     Well, I am not even sure what to say about this week. It was very strange. I learned lots and grew lots and I am not going to write all of the world, just those who are close.
Today we came out here to a members house- a girl who is 19 yrs old named Mago! She is so great, always is super willing to go visit people with us, and today she wanted to us to come over here and eat with her. Her mom made us luch and then we just got done making donuts, it was fun. P-days are way fun.
      I have been learning a lot about the commandments and all that they really should mean for us. God really doesn't limit us, he shows us how we can really reach our full potential. Every commandment has a purpose. They all have their individual blessings as well. I really love especially that fasting is a window so that we can recieve revelation, forgivness, comfort, and feel our relationship with God growing. I am excited to fast with more purpose this sunday when it rolls around again.
     I have really seen a lot of things here in the mission that I have never known before, well, I have never seen them face to face and how the gospel really changes everything. Don´t know if you all remember Ivan, who I was teaching in Nogales. The one that had cancer in his liver who came to church every week, who I taught when he was laying on his couch and saw him improve drastically to the point that he was driving his car and everything. I found out that he got baptized! Little things that make you happy!
I love to learn about Christ and how He lived. I have been reading the Liahona (its like the ensign) and there is an article about how christ taught. Somthing so important is that He lived what he taught. That is why he was such a good teacher. He did all that he taught. 
Well, super short, but love you all
