Can you believe that the New Year is here?! I can't. but it's awesome! How did everyone roll in the New Year? Mostly I want to know how everything went down with Ashleigh's work - todo paso bien?!But all stories are welcome! We stayed at the VC that night as the whole month and when we got home we talked about our goals and things for the new year and ate popcorn :)
WE HAD A WEDDING!!! And a BAPTISM!!! Oh my goodness- i love this family so much :D they are the best and are really learning what it is like to have a family in the gospel, to gain the blessings of a forever family. We went over to their house last night and taught about the Book of Mormon and prayer and why we pray individually and also as families (3 Nephi 18: 21 :D) It is a blessing to pray as a family and that is why we do it. Jose sometimes worries that he will be judged or it will take away from his special relationship that he has with Heavenly Father but as we explained that it is to strengthen others and the family itself, even to strengthen your relationship with other people when we are in a group, it made more sense to him and he offered a sincere prayer after the lesson! It was wonderful!
So transfers were this week and my "mom" went home!!! AH - LO PEOR!!! Plus my companions from my last two transfers and 3 other english sisters. The sisters in the mission are so tight knit because we all serve together at the VC that when one goes home its so sad and we all cry a lot! but we make it through and we know the Lord is watching over us and them!
As for my companionship - I stayed in Gaithersburg!!! Yay!! I don't have to pack and I'm still with Hermana Tuft! She is just in her second transfer so she is still technically being trained and I'm doing that! So 5th transfer and I'm trying. I'm grateful the oppourtunity and already seeing that the Lord is qualifing both of us in this work.
DAD and PAPA ROY - I met a guy named RAMBO!! haha- so cool! Well his name was Ramberto but his call sign is Rambo. He is in the Navy and i said, "Oh cool, my grandpa was in the Navy on the Bon Hom Richard back in WWII" and was like - "oh, yeah? I was on that ship when i was stationed in San Diego." COOL! he then proceed to tell me that it has since switched from one type of ship to another and i got lost. Oh well! It was super cool.
before i forget - i need addresses! and even if you don't want my letters you'll get them anyways (when i have time to write them, but i always need to be prepared :P)
--so - Timmy Hodges = are you at school yet? I need that address?
- Mikelle = whats the mish home address?
-Trent = where are you living at school? Live it up! I love the burg!
---i think thats it!
LES QUIERO MUCHISIMOS!!! Este evangelio is verdadero! Yo se que Jesucristo es el Salvador del Mundo y que el Libro de Mormon es un testigo tan especial de El. Si Lea este libro pueda ver por su mismo las bendiciones que el tiene para usted!
Hagalo!
