Semana 40 - Abril 2015




Semana 40 - Abril 2015
Taco Count for the Week:  7
Total Taco Count:  436.50

Last week I was super anxious about the week to come!
Butterflies to go and teach the world=)

Well I am happy to inform you that it may have been the greatest week 
in my WHOLE mission!!

We had an activity as a zone... Obviously there are no losers or 
winners as missionaries.
BUT....my companion and I are both rather competitive.
We were able to put it to good use=)
Using competitiveness for the right reasons! Haha



We literally spent the week RUNNING around contacting, teaching, 
serving, etc.
I started laughing one day as we were walking in the street... 
we both had pass-along cards in our hands looking 
every which way just to find someone to talk to.
To sum it up...
I felt like I was hunting.

Each day this week we had goals... SUPER specific goals!
for example:
Contact every person you see in Red
Contact using the First Vision
Drop 3 investigators that aren´t progressing
3 New investigators in 1 hour
2 New investigators 2 baptismal dates in a first lesson
Contact an entire bus.

We had to complete the goals each day!

My personal favorite was the very last goal=)
It was one of the things on my "Mission Bucket List."
We planned it all out and as we waited for the bus... 
we were both super nervous=)
We got in front and presented ourselves and shared a short message.
Simple.
But we liked it so much we ended out doing it 6 times!
We were able to contact a TON of people!!! 
I was really surprised.
One of the times I presented myself and a lady in front of me 
stood up and told me her name and shook my hand=)
She was really excited to meet us! She lives in Tijuana but we have already passed along the direction!



I would have loved to keep doing it but I got SUPER car sick!! hahaha =)

Tuesday we had a lesson with someone we contacted a few weeks back... 
We taught the lesson and as we finished her husband got home.
He spent a few years living in Utah and got SO excited 
that we were from Utah.
They have two kids that are super sweet!
The mom and daughter came with us on Sunday 
and the daughter left asking us when she could be baptized.
Keep them in your prayers!! It´s a complete family=)

I really wish I could share all the miracles that happened this week 
and tell you all the amazing experiences that we had...
but the time is just too short=)

This week was a good week to realize the potential I have as a missionary. 
We are booked solid and have a million things to do this week=)
I asked President to send more missionaries to help with all we have to do.



I can honestly say I have never been so exhausted in my entire life.
Spiritually. Mentally. Physically.
But I have never felt better=)

I love how everything just makes sense in the mission.
You receive answers to prayers almost immediately.
You can see everything just a little bit more clearly.
and you have the opportunity to feel so close to your Savior.

I love you all=) and I hope you have the greatest week!!
