<br />
I can't believe that this moment is actually here. It hasn't really hit me yet, but sitting here waiting for my interview is making it a little more real. I have so many feelings right now and I there's no way I'll be able to express my feelings, but I'm going to do my best.<br />
<br />
Throughout my mission I have acquired a love for the hymn "I stand all amazed." The truth is I like the words better in Spanish, but the point still stands in English :) I stand all amazed at the love Jesus offers me! I especially love the second verse of this song. "I marvel that he would descend from his throne divine. To rescue a soul so rebellious and proud as mine. That he should extend his great love as to such as I, sufficient to own, to redeem and to justify." That really is what Christ does for us. He rescues us! My mission has shown me this promise not only in myself, but in the lives of the people I love so much here in Spain. I love my Savior! I know he lives.<br />
<br />
I thought I would be sad about ended my mission, but the truth is I'm okay. A little scared yes, but my title really doesn't change. As it says in 3 Nephi 5: 13 "Behold, I am a disciple of Jesus Christ, the Son of God. I have been called of him to declare his word among his people, that they might have everlasting life." Even after I take my chapa off, I still get to be a disciple of Christ. I know Him, I honor Him, I love Him, and will serve Him with all my heart might mind and strength.<br />
<br />
My mission has converted me. What started out as beliefs has changed into knowledge. I know that this is the true church of my beloved Savior Jesus Christ! This knowledge has laid the foundation of what I will build on for the rest of my life. And the best part is, I never have to stop being a missionary. I love this work with all of my heart and will forever be indebted to my Heavenly Father for this remarkable blessing to serve with Him in Spain for 18 months. It has completely changed my life. I love the people here and am so sad to leave them. But then I remember I get you in my arms soon and I feel better about it :) thank you so much for the support you have given me this last year and a half. I really couldn't have done this without you. I love you and am so grateful that I get to be with you forever!! See you so soon<br />

<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;">Gerardo is doing great. We set his fecha back to the 18th so we would</span></div>

</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
people say maybe or i'll try, but Gerardo said, "I will be prepared</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
for that day!" And has been talking about it ever since. He's so</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
excited it's the cutest thing. Every lesson is always a great one with</div>

</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
she really had made so much progression! She'll get baptized one day</div>

soon. She's so excited to meet mom and dad. She's been talking about</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
it for the last two weeks! So excited for you to meet her.</div>
</span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;">We have two great new investigators that were member references and</span></div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;">
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
they are great. The first one is Aldo and the second is Clotilde.</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
There really is such a difference between the lesson we have with and</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
without members. So you all have a job (and me soon too!). Find the</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
missionaries and go out on a lesson with them. There are very few</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
things more powerful!</div>
</span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;">We have a goal to meet the members and we came up with a new message</span></div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;">
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
to share with them during our visits with them. We have been watching</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
the last 5 minutes of Grandfathers talk "Ask the Missionaries!" and it</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
has been so wonderful. Whether we help them with their genealogy,</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
visiting teaching, or teach their friends, we have already seen the</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
results. So thank you Grandfather! Plus it's a fun excuse to see him</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
for a few minutes every day :)</div>
</span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;">Okay I think that is about it. I love love love being a missionary.</span></div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;">
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
And I am SO grateful for my companion. She is an absolute angel and</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
i'm so thankful for her patience with me! The mission is shaping me</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
into the person that my Heavenly Father wants me to be and I can't</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
think of anything better. I love it here. The people here have my</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
heart! I'm ready to give my everything to them this last week. Thank</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
you for everything and I hope you have a wonderful week :) Love you!</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Oh it is so fun to hear from you. I've been on the mission over 17</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
months and talking to you guys never gets old. Happy to hear that all</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
is well :) Happy Happy Birthday to my Emerson and Finlay! I can't</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
believe that my little boys are 9 years old. I love you two and I am</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
thinking of two! We had a great week this week i'm excited to tell you</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
about it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This week was filled of lots of lasts. First off- last concilio. It</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
was so wonderful to be in the mission home full of missionaries. We</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
talked about the importance of our studies and using time wisely. It</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
was exactly what I needed to hear because I need to study at home and</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
use time wisely at home too! I love it. My companion and I got to</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
play a musical number on the piano too which was really fun for us. I</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
love concilios I will miss them! We had our last temple trip too and</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
that place has grown so dear to me. I love the Spain Madrid Temple.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It also was my last Zone Conference which I thought went really well.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We even got to squeeze in my last intercambio with the hermanas from</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Toledo. I got to go with Hermana Calderon who actually is going to</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
serve in the temple square mission. She is from Spain and is waiting</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
for her visa and she is the CUTEST thing. So excited to spoil her</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
rotten! She's wonderful. And as always, it was so great to be with</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Hermana Toone as well. That girl has been such a blessing for me! We</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
got to share our final testimonies at the Zone Conferences together.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
First and last!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The work is going! After concilio about using time wisely we decided</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
that we had some weeding out to do. That sounds really bad, but I</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
can't think of any other way to do it! We decided that if they weren't</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
progressing, we needed to take a break with them. That included Sonia</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
:( i'm really sad about it. But we have faith that The Lord will put</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
someone in our path that is prepared. Aga and Gerardo are still doing</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
well though! We also had a miracle with Lourdes this week. She hasn't</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
been answering our calls and I thought she was over it. BUT she ran</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
into a member at the doctors and it turns out her phone broke in</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Ecuador and we are going over this week! WAHOO! Stay tuned :)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We have been doing lots of finding this week and are excited to see</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
what happens with the people that we have found. Our menos activos are</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
doing great as well :) I love being here. I just am feeling really</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
weird right now! Excited to see my family soon, but really there isn't</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
anything better than being a missionary. Especially in the best</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
mission in the world ;) I love my Savior and am thankful for the</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
blessing to testify of Him 24/7. I love you all and hope you have a</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
great week!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Mis Queridos :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Happy Valentine's Day! I love you all and I'm very thankful to have</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
you in my life :) I hope you are having a fun Presidents' Day weekend</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
too. The pictures from Arizona look amazing! Excited to tag along next</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
time. This week was a great one and absolutely flew like always.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Our people are doing well! We went over the baptismal questions this</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
week and it went really well. She only smoked a HALF of a cigarette</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
this week! She talked to her boyfriend and is making progress with</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
him, but once again she didn't show up at church again. So</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
frustrating! We confirm Saturday night, but something always comes up.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And that's a pretty important part of being a member of the church SO!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We'll probably push her fecha back again. Sad. She really is</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
progressing though, she just needs to come to church!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Gerardo is doing great though. We taught the word of wisdom this week</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and it went well. He only has problems with coffee, but he said he had</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
no idea that God didn't want him to drink coffee and said he would be</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
done from here on out. The best! He is great and the members take such</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
good care of him. He still is working on Sundays at 12 and he doesn't</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
like that he can't keep all of the Sabbath day holy, but we are</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
praying for him.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Leidy is doing okay. We are trying our hardest to prepare great</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
lessons and invited the spirit, but she is always so distracted. We</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
met with their whole family last night though and her dad (member that</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
hasn't come to church in years) shared the strongest testimony. He is</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
going to be the key for this family! It was so cute though we asked</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Ramber if he would offer the last prayer and he said "Yes, but can we</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
do it on our knees?" It was so cute. My companion just cried haha!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Hermana West's family came this week and we just tagged along to all</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
of their eating appointments it was the greatest. This ward sure does</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
love her it was pretty great to see. Especially Aga. She just cried</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the poor thing! We had a really great lesson with her this week on the</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Law of Chastity. We are one step closer!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Things are going really well here. I don't know if I could be happier!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We had a pretty great day today. I got to see ALL of my companions</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
that haven't already gone home it was wonderful! We went to the</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Titanic museum which meant I got to listen to my heart will go on all</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
day so I was pretty content :) This week is going to be a big one. I</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
have my last concilio, temple trip, intercambios, and zone training.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Yay! It's going to be busy. And that's how I like it! Thank you for</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
everything you do for me. You guys really are the best! I love you and</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
am praying for you. Until next week!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
HI! Oh it's so fun to get to hear from you guys. Mondays really never</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
get old for me. I'm happy to hear that everyone is doing well! Things</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
are going well here in Spain. It was week one of the transfer and it</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
FLEW. Week one is normally so slow! So that makes me a little nervous,</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
but time flies when you're having fun :) We really did have a lot of</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
miracles though and i'm excited to tell you all about it.</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
We had the COOLEST miracle with our investigator Gerardo. We went to</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
our lesson and he told us that before we started, he had some</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
questions for us. That is either a good thing or a bad thing, and in</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
this case it was a good thing :) He opens his book of mormon to the</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
one and only... 2 Nefi 31! Basically one of the best chapters in the</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
book of mormon about the doctrine of Christ. He then continues to read</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
verse 12. Go read it. I was freaking out! He found that all by himself</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
and we spent the rest of the lesson talking about baptism. This guy is</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
prepared!!</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Ramber was confirmed a member of the church yesterday and it was one</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
of the cutest things. It's so special to see his brother baptize and</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
confirm him. We met with his sister Leidy twice this week ands she is</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
doing well. I feel like our lessons go really well and that she is</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
really engaged, but Sunday rolls around and she still doesn't come.</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
So we'll have to figure that one out.. She really is doing well</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
though!</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Sonia didn't fall off the face of the earth, she just got a job. Happy</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
for her sad for me haha! She is watching her friends girls and she</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
works sundays, but she said she'd ask her friend if she could bring</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
the girls to church. Fingers crossed! Smoked only 1 time all last week</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
though :) It was the hiring week I guess though because Aga got a job</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
too and hardly has any time. The worst. We'll still pass when we can,</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
but things aren't looking to great for her.</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
We'll have our last lesson with Nicole tonight and I am so sad. She</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
really is one of the best investigators i've had... She'd get</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
baptized this transfer! But that's okay she'll go to Peru and share</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
the gospel with her family. Then come back and get baptized in May :)</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
The good news is that Lourdes gets home this week!!! YES!! Now i'm</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
just debating how soon is too soon to call... I'm a little excited</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
i've missed her!</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
We had our Mission Tour this week and we had Elder Moreira come. He is</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
AWESOME. Seriously so funny, but so serious all at the same time. He</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
shared with us the story about when Christ used 5 loaves of bread and</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
2 fish to feed the entire multitude. I'd heard this story many times,</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
but he said something that stuck out to me this time. Do you know what</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
kind of bread it was? Barley bread. That's the bread they give to</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
pigs, not people. But Christ made it possible so that this bread that</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
really isn't that appetizing fill thousands. He then talked about how</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
as missionaries, we really are nothing. But The Lord works with us and</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
shapes us so we can be the miracles and fill people spiritually. I</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
really am nothing. All success that I have had on my mission is thanks</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
to Him! I'm grateful that he trusts me enough though to work through</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
my weaknesses so others can have the gospel.</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
I love this gospel with all my heart and I can't imagine doing</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
anything else with my life right now. Hermana Spencer is wonderful and</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
I feel so lucky to be her companion. I hope you all have a wonderful</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
week I will talk to you soon!</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
xo,</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Hermana Marsh</div>

HI! What a wonderful week it has been. I'm so proud of Hermana West</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
she did it! And we ended it with a baptism. I can't think of a better</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
way! It was absolutely wonderful Ramber is great. The greatest news is</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
I already love my new companion. Her name is Hermana Spencer and she</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
started in Mostoles my third transfer in Alcorcon. I'm so excited for</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
this transfer. Still can't believe that it's my last one, but we are</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
ready to go! Thank you for all of the updates and pictures. Happy to</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
hear everyone is happy and healthy!</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
The baptism yesterday really was wonderful, but my favorite part was</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
probably what happened after. They invited us over for dinner last</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
night and it honestly was one of the funnest nights of my mission. We</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
had a great lesson and then they planned a little dispedida for my</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
companion and it was such a great night. He's mom still likes us which</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
is the biggest miracle. And Leidy wants to hear the lessons again!</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
She's going to be next :)</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Nicole is doing great. She had work yesterday, but told her boss she</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
would be late and came to church anyway :) SO SAD she is going to</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Peru. It's okay though she's going to do it when she gets back! Sonia</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
and Lenny kind of fell off the face of the earth this week which</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
breaks my heart... but whatever happens will be for the best I guess!</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
We have been praying a lot lately for Aga and decided that we need to</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
focus more on her and the results have been amazing. She is a pretty</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
big smoker and drinker and we were always a little scared to teach the</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
word of wisdom though. We were big brave girls though and asked her to</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
set a goal to start quitting. We were thinking she was going to say</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
maybe 10 cigarettes and 2 beers a day or something like that, but she</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
said 2 cigarettes a day and 0 beers. And you know the best part? She's</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
doing it!!! I'm so proud of her. She loves coming to church too and</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
just cried when Hermana West left. I know she loves our visits and</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
it's the best feeling.</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
One more new guy! We have this guy named Gerardo that we are teaching</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
and he has come to church for 3 weeks in a row now. I didn't tell you</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
about him because he works a ton and hasn't had much time to meet with</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
us during the week, but he comes to church and the members love him! I</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
would have it that way than the other way around any day. He told us</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
that he wants to get baptized, but we've literally only had 2 lessons</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
with him haha! We are excited though and praying that he likes the</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
commandments haha!</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
I think that is about it as far a the people go. I really am so</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
excited for the next 5 weeks i'm going to hit the ground running!</div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px; text-align: center;">Mi Familia!</span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Hi cute family. Happy to hear that everyone is doing well. I have to</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
start off saying thank you for your thoughts and your prayers....</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Ramber's mom gave him permission and he is getting baptized this</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Sunday! Oh it was the biggest miracle and the whole ward is so</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
excited. They announced it in church and the whole ward just gasped</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
haha it was the cutest thing. We are so excited! So that was our</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
big miracle this week. Stay tuned for pictures next week!</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
The other miracle that happened this week was Sonia. We met with her</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
this week and since last saturday she has only smoked twice! And the</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
miracle is that she couldn''t even finish the two that she started.</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
She has tried quitting before, but never had much success. This</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
time though, she said that she literally felt sick after and now</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
no longer has the desires. So happy!! Sad that she is sick, but</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
prayer really does work! Her brother has been in town and they have</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
been traveling all over Spain so she couldn't come to church. BUT.</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
He leaves tomorrow so she should be ready to go pronto :)</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
I was spoiled rotten this week. After over a year I got to be with</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Hermana Toone again! Oh I love intercambios. We teach a lot better</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
than we did 16 months ago ;) She is such a great missionary and I feel</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
so grateful to have had her by my side through my whole mission. We</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
got to teach Nicole and Lenny when we were together and both lessons</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
went so well. Except they didn't come to church yesterday... We're</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
working on it though. We don't have much time with Nicole though</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
because she is going to Peru to visit her family for 2 months.</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
AWESOME. That's okay though she can meet with missionaries there with</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
her family.</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
We were very blessed this week with the worldwide missionary</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
devotional. It was amazing! One of the things I wanted to share with</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
you was what Elder Oaks shared. He was talking about repentance and</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
how when we repent, the Atonement not only CLEANSES us, but</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
STRENGTHENS us. It all clicked for me when he said that! Heavenly</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Father knew we were going to make mistakes and guess what- we grow</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
from them! And that's why we are here! Heavenly Father's plan is</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
perfect. And I'm very grateful for repentance and hoping that I can</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
teach it better so my investigators understand the blessing that it</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
is.</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
That wraps it up I think. We were very blessed to find lots of new</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
people to teach this week that I am really excited about. We are ready</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
to work hard this last week of the transfer so Hermana West can finish</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
strong. I'm grateful to work with her and everything that she teaches</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
me. I love you all and hope you have a wonderful week!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">Hi Family!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
YAY OLIVIA!!!! She´s coming to Spain!! I totally called it. Oh I love</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
this country and I'm so excited to share it with her! Paella, churros,</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
and tortilla parties will definitely be happening. Best news of the</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
week :) Happy to hear that everyone is happy and healthy. It's always</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
the highlight of my week to hear from you guys. This week was a great</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
one!</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
The highlight this week was... the temple! We were supposed to go this</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
week, but the temple is closed so we assumed that we wouldn't get to</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
go this transfer. It's my companions last transfer though, so we got a</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
phone call from the AP's one night asking us if we wanted to go the</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
next day. Of course!! I don't know what it was, but this time was SO</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
amazing. I mean it always is, but this time was even more incredible</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
for me. I love the temple!</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
We had concilio this week as well which is always a highlight. I feel</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
like a broken record, but I always leave feeling so grateful to be a</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
missionary. It's so fun to be with other missionaries and the Pack's</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
talking about the things and people that we love. And we even stole</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
the Gijon hermanas (Santiago and Rossberg) after to help us with our</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
work and for a sleepover :) It was exactly was I needed. So grateful</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
to be a missionary!</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Our people are doing great. We visited Sonia a few times this week and</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
as of Saturday she is cigarette free! Her brother is here visiting and</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
that was the biggest blessing. She's having a hard time dropping</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
smoking (as anyone would) and he is keeping her distracted and busy.</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
The only sad part is she didn't come to church yesterday... and I</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
don't know why! The worst. Still excited about her though. Nicole is</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
kind of in the same boat. Great lessons during the week, but something</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
always comes up on Sundays. We had a really great lesson with her</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
yesterday though, so hopefully she'll make it more of a priority.</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
We still have faith with Ramber!! The answer is still kind of up in</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
the air, but it's not a no! We had ward council yesterday and</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
seriously the whole ward is praying for him. We love him and are</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
praying hard for him.</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
We have our English class miracle... Lenny. He is my favorite right</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
now! He has been coming to english class for months now and we've been</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
trying to meet with him, but it's been a little hard over the</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
holidays. Things have settled down a little bit more though and we had</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
an AWESOME lesson with him this week. He's active in the catholic</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
church, but there are things that he doesn't like. He really wants to</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
know what church is true and is willing to act. He came to church and</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
everything!! Funny story though. We were walking to our lesson and I</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
was talking to him and not paying attention where I was going and ran</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
RIGHT into a pole. I have a bruised face and everything hahaha! So who</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
knows if he's coming out of pity for me or not, but we'll see :) I'm</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
excited!</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
I think that's about it for this week. We found a few new menos</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
activos that we are really excited about. And we are so excited for</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
the missionary devotional this week! We are very blessed missionaries</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
and are trying are hardest to make our Heavenly Father proud. I know</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
this church is true. My testimony is strengthened everyday by sharing</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
it and I will forever be grateful to my Heavenly Father for letting me</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
serve Him in Spain. It has changed me! I love you and am praying for</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
you.</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">

Wade!!! Oh that was the best news I heard all week! And half of Spain</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
heard about it too :) Welcome to the world baby wade! Can't wait to</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
snuggle you soon. And Happy Happy Birthday to my sweet Daddy! I'm the</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
luckiest daughter in the world. Thank you for all of the pictures,</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
videos, and updates this week. Happy to hear that everyone is happy</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
and healthy. The best news of the week is that festivos are over!!!</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Los Reyes was great and everything, but wow am I excited to get back</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
in to normal mode. Still a wonderful week though!</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
We have been focusing a lot on Ramber this week and I honestly still</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
don't know if he will be able to be baptized this week or not. We had</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
a Noche de Hogar with them last night and he volunteered to offer the</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
lesson. Without us saying anything, the topic he picked was baptism.</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
He is the best! It was a great lesson, but his mom wasn't too happy.</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
It's so hard because everyone in the room was on board except her! We</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
are praying for a miracle. We left the room laughing so i'm not</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
worried about any hard feelings, I just really want this for Ramber.</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Yamil has helped a lot though. He has such a strong testimony and it's</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
been fun to talk with him in English!</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Sonia is great. She has officially quit smoking, stopped drinking</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
coffee, broke up with her boyfriend, and is coming to church every</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
week instead of the Catholic church she went to before. Who is this</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
girl?! She is the most willing and determined person I have ever met.</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
We are planning her baptism for the 22nd and I know she can do it! We</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
just need a couple more weeks to make sure she is free from her</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
addictions. Pray for her!</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Nicole is doing well. She hasn't been keeping up with her commitments</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
though, so we decided to just read with her this week. It was</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
incredible she understands everything! I seriously am shocked I don't</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
know where it is coming from haha but I think we made a big change</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
this week. She wasn't able to come to church this week though which</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
was a little disheartening, but we're working on it. She's so cute she</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
made a cake for my companion for her birthday, but it burned while we</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
were in the lesson haha whoops! It's the thought that counts :)</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Remember Aga? The woman from Poland? She has a lot of things going on</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
and it is going to be a long road, but we taught the gospel of Jesus</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Christ this week and it was such a powerful lesson. She wants to get</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
baptized but has SO many things in her past and doesn't believe that</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
she could ever be worthy of such an amazing thing. We assured her that</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
the Atonement was made for EVERYONE and that could be forgiven for</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
everything. She asked for a blessing of comfort and it went really</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
well. Thank you Elders! She has cut down her smoking in half and</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
stayed for all of church yesterday for the first time (she normally</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
can't go that long without smoking). She's the most selfless person I</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
know. She gave me shoes for absolutely no reason this week. I can't</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
handle how nice the people here are sometimes!</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
So there's just a few of the miracles we've seen this week. We're very</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
blessed that is for sure. Hard things happen every single day out</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
here, but we always come home feeling grateful for the experiences we</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
have been given and for the opportunity to learn from them. We have</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
fun things coming up too! We have concilio this week and then a world</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
wide missionary devotional the next. We are excited! It's a wonderful</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
time to be a missionary. Especially in Spain :) I love you guys and am</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
praying for you every day! Thank you for everything- have a great</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
week!</div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">Mi Familia :)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">Happy 2016!!! That means Birthday week for so many of my favorites!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">Happy Birthday Steph, Oliver, Tisha, Dad, and Baby Boy (come</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">already!!). I love you all and am so grateful for your positive</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">influences in my life. I'm the person I am today thanks to you guys! I</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">hope you have great days and are spoiled rotten :) Today, I feel</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">really grateful. The miracles that happened this week were amazing and</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">I am so grateful to my Father in Heaven for them.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">I look back at the week, and I really am astounded at the work we were</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">able to do. It is SO HARD to work with people during this time of the</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">year. Between Christmas, New Years, and Los Reyes (Jan 6th holiday</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">here in Spain that is bigger than Christmas) not very many people are</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">exactly excited to meet with us. I'm not going to lie when I was</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">absolutely dreading this week, but Heavenly Father is SO good. I am</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">amazed that we had things to do all week! We started the majority of</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">the days mainly blank, and come home with a day full of lessons. Every</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">time. I don't understand it, but Heavenly Father is just so good! And</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">the best news is- after Wednesday the holidays will be over and the</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">work will be normal again! But seriously I can't say it enough. I'm</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">astounded by the work we were able to do.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">Before I get into the spiritual stuff though, the greatest thing</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">happened this week. I went to Costco! And oh is it beautiful. We had</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">interviews with President Pack, and then they let us tag along after.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">Costco is great. Everyone go this week for me. Also we went bowling</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">today and I WON! Elders included! Not bad for not having bowled for a</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">year and a half ;) Okay now back to missionary things.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">The best news this week... Yamil came home!! And Ramber is so excited</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">it is the cutest thing. He came home Tuesday and we have met with the</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">whole family twice since then. I still don't know if his mom will give</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">him permission, but she invited us over for lunch this next week which</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">is HUGE! We are hoping to get to talk to her about the baptism. But we</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">have been fasting and praying and I have faith that Ramber will do it</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">the 16th!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">Sonia is also doing SO well. We pushed her fecha back a week so she'll</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">have a little more time to get out of the habit of smoking, but wow</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">that woman is determined. And so excited! I love it! She really is so</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">good to us. It was my companions birthday yesterday and she threw her</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">the cutest party. Complete with a Hello Kitty cake and everything haha</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">:) She's the greatest.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">Lourdes goes to Ecuador this week- AH. We are going to get her ready</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">to go to church there though so she can come home to a BAPTISM. My</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">only worry is that her family isn't really on board with the whole</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">mormon thing, but she'll be okay. She's great and her daughter is the</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">cutest thing!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">Nicole came to church for the first time this week and she loved it!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">She finally didn't have to work this week and it was the greatest</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">miracle. A lot of the members already know her since she has come to</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">lots of the activities and they were so cute with her. I love this</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">ward! She has made a lot of progress this week i'm really excited for</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">her.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">Remember Angel and Elena? The ones that are waiting on papers and were</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">supposed to get baptized Christmas Eve? Well obviously that didn't</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">happen, and we found out some good news and some bad news this week.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">The good news is the papers are basically done and will be here at the</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">end of February when her daughter comes to visit. The bad news is</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">Elena does NOT want to get married/baptized in March because that is</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">when her and her ex-husband got married. So the ball is rolling which</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">is good! Sad that I won't be here for it, but i'll get some pictures</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">:)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">I think that is about it for our investigators. We are teaching some</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">others, but those are the ones that are really progressing. And I am</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">so grateful for them! They make being a missionary a dream. Of course</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">it is still hands down the hardest thing I have ever done, but every</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">time I leave a lesson with them I am happy. This gospel makes me happy</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">and sharing it makes me even happier! Like I said earlier, I feel very</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">grateful today. Thank you for all you do. I love you and miss you!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">xo,</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Oh I'm still on cloud 9 from Christmas. It was so great to see your</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
faces! Fastest 40 minutes of my life. Thank you so much for making it</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
possible that I could talk to everyone! I'm happy to hear that you all</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
had a Merry Christmas. It really is something special to spend</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Christmas as a missionary. I love it! Although I will say I'm happy</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
that that was my second and final one... I don't think my stomach</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
could take it a 3rd year haha! The families here are SO good to us and</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
we were definitely taken care of this year. I love it here in Barrio 3</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and feel very blessed to have been here for the holidays!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Okay I have lots to update you on. I was sick two weeks ago and skyped</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
instead of wrote last week, so I have 3 weeks to fill you in on!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Lourdes is doing GREAT! She's probably the person I am most excited</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
about. I don't know what it was, but she has a completely different</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
light about her then she did when we first started teaching her. She</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
has come to church every week and she even brought her daughter</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
yesterday. The members adored her it was the cutest thing. I'm so sad</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
she's leaving in just a couple weeks, but she'll be back in February</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and we'll get everything ready for her baptism :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Ramber's brother gets home from his mission TOMORROW! The moment we</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
have all been waiting for! We had a noche de hogar last night with the</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
whole family and I'm not going to lie I was a little nervous. Last</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
time we went it was very clear that we weren't wanted there by his mom</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and sister, but last night was completely different. I don't know if</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
it's because there son is coming home in two days or not, but they</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
were happy to have us there and I think we were able to establish a</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
better relationship with them. We have his homecoming this week and we</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
are praying for a miracle so Ramber can get baptized! He's so ready</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and i'm excited for him to have a little more support from home.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I don't know if you remember Sonia, but she has progressed SO much the</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
last couple of weeks. She's been coming to church, reading, and</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
praying. We also finished teaching the commandments and although she</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
has a few problems with some of them, she is willing to make the</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
changes she needs. We are preparing for her baptism the 16th! And as</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
long as she keeps progressing the way she has been, I have no doubt</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
that she will be ready. She made us a little Christmas dinner the day</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
after Christmas and it seriously was the cutest thing. She is so good</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
to us!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Nicole is doing really great as well. Still working on Sundays so she</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
can't come to church, but she came to the ward party and a movie night</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
that we had. We watched the best two years and she loved it-</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
especially the part where he got baptized. She had so many great</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
questions after and I am really excited for her.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Calixto got the priesthood yesterday and Nilo is still one of my</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
favorite people on the planet. Just so you don't forget about them :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We have had a lot of miracles here in Barrio 3, but i'll stop there or</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
we will be here all day. I CANNOT believe that 2015 will be over this</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
week. I feel robbed a little! My full year of being a missionary went</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
by so fast. I'm so thankful for this year and the opportunities that</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
my Heavenly Father has given me to grow here in Spain. There is no</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
where else I would have rather spent it. I love it here! I'm excited</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
to apply the things i've learned so that 2016 can be the best year</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
yet. I love you and hope you have a Happy New Year!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica";"><div style="text-align: center;">
week is probably going to be a short one. I don't know if that's a</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica";"><div style="text-align: center;">
good thing or a bad thing, but there ya have it. I almost made it my</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica";"><div style="text-align: center;">
whole mission without getting sick, but it hit me this last week and</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica";"><div style="text-align: center;">
it was terrible! And of course when you are with someone 24/7, they</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica";"><div style="text-align: center;">
catch it too. We spent a couple days at home and when we weren't we</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica";"><div style="text-align: center;">
were a little bit on the miserable side, but we are feeling a little</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica";"><div style="text-align: center;">
bit better today. I am grateful for health though!! The mission is the</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica";"><div style="text-align: center;">
worst place to sick, but we did see a few miracles.</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica";"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica";">We met with a lot of new investigators this week and I wanted to tell</span></div>

</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica";"></span>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica";">you about one of them. Her name is Nicole and she is the cutest. She</span></div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica";">
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica";"><div style="text-align: center;">
is 18 and has a friend who is a member in Pavones. We have had two</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica";"><div style="text-align: center;">
lessons with her, and she loves it! She has the best questions and</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica";"><div style="text-align: center;">
seems so prepared. She works Sunday mornings, so we'll have to work</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica";"><div style="text-align: center;">
with that, but she did come to the YSA family home evening last night</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica";"><div style="text-align: center;">
and she LOVED it. And is already planning on helping them with the</div>

<span style="font-family: "helvetica";">
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica";"><div style="text-align: center;">
if he can help with lessons. There are 6 missionaries in this ward, so</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica";"><div style="text-align: center;">
I hope he doesn't regret his offer haha :) We will use it! He's doing</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica";"><div style="text-align: center;">
great though. Our other investigators are doing well Johnny came to</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica";"><div style="text-align: center;">
the family home evening last night too it was great. We received a few</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica";"><div style="text-align: center;">
member references with a lot of potential, so we are excited to see</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica";"><div style="text-align: center;">
what happens with that.</div>

<span class="s1"><br /></span></div>
<div class="p1" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">
<span class="s1">What a great week to be a missionary. Time is going by so ridiculously fast. I really can't even describe how blessed I feel to be where I am and with the people I am with. And the best part is... No changes this transfer! Hermana West are staying the same and we are so excited. They took out the other set of hermanas in our area so we have SO much work to do. A little stressful, but we are ready to work hard. Also, we are still sister training leaders and Hermana Toone is coming to my Zone! That means Intercambios wahoo! Greatest news I am excited for this next transfer. </span></div>
<div class="p2" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">
<span class="s1"></span><br /></div>
<div class="p1" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">
<span class="s1">The biggest news of the week would of course be Calixto. He was baptized and confirmed a member of the church yesterday. He is one of the most grateful people I know and shared the sweetest testimony. Yesterday after he was confirmed I asked him how he felt and he was talking about how grateful he felt and the only thing that was making him sad was that it took so long to get him here. It made me take a moment to realize just how much the gospel blesses people's lives. There are people that are looking for the answers and the happiness, they just don't know where to find it. Calixto has given me more of a drive to work harder and find those people who are ready. He's amazing! </span></div>
<div class="p2" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">
<span class="s1"></span><br /></div>
<div class="p1" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">
<span class="s1">Our next miracle is Ramber. He has kind of been on the back burner since we are just waiting for his brother to get home, but we decided this week to apply what we learned in Zone Conference and see if we could get him to come to Seminary. At first he was a little nervous to ask for permission from his parents, but we fasted specifically for him and he got permission! He is starting this week :) 6 in the morning and everything- this guy is awesome. </span></div>
<div class="p2" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">
<span class="s1"></span><br /></div>
<div class="p1" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">
<span class="s1">Lourdes came to church yesterday again!! Oh I really am so happy to see her coming back. She leaves for Ecuador in a few weeks for the month of January, but every time we go over she is talking about her baptism. We will get her ready for February! Sonia also came to church yesterday and is making progress on quitting smoking. Lots of potential there. </span></div>
<div class="p2" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">
<span class="s1"></span><br /></div>
<div class="p1" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">
<span class="s1">We have a new guy that I wanted to tell you about. His name is Johnny (30) and he is so great! We have been teaching him for a couple weeks now and every time he talks about how bad he wants a family and more peace in his life. Hello that's what the gospel is for! He gives us great summaries of the Book of Mormon every lesson and has the greatest questions. The only problem is he works at a grocery store and the hours are crazy during Christmastime, so he can't come to church. But we will figure something out! </span></div>
<div class="p2" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">
<span class="s1"></span><br /></div>
<div class="p1" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">
<span class="s1">We had concilio this week and it was great as always. I am so thankful for the Packs! Every time I leave I feel so grateful to be a missionary. The Zone training went really well too. The only sad part was I had to say goodbye to Hermana Finch. So weird! She's a great missionary and I feel very blessed to have served with her. </span></div>
<div class="p2" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">
<span class="s1"></span><br /></div>
<div class="p1" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">
<span class="s1">Okay that wraps up this week! We have lots of work to do and my body can't really catch up haha! I have a little bit of a cold, but don't worry mom! Show up to church with no voice and you leave with 3 people offering you soup for lunch. And lots of meds :) the members here are incredible. I love being a missionary and I've reached the point where I'd really like it if time slowed down. There really is nothing better than being a missionary. I am excited to see your faces in a couple weeks though for Christmas :) I love you and thank you for all you do for me! Have a great week and go cougars!!! </span></div>

Mis queridos, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Happy Monday! So fun to hear from you guys. It looks like you had an</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
amazing thanksgiving! We had a great one here in Madrid. We had a zone</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
conference and Hermana Pack and Hermana Larsen are incredible. They</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
made a full thanksgiving dinner (pictured below) for ALL the Madrid</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
missionaries. That's about 150 people! It was sooo good. Then on</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
thanksgiving day we had a thanksgiving dinner made by missionaries.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Was it my mothers cooking? No, but we made it work :) We invited our</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
friends to come too which made it fun to be all together. A</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
thanksgiving to remember for sure. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This week absolutely flew. Now that I think about it though this whole</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
month has flown. I can't believe it's December!! I'm excited</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Christmastime is the best. But anyways! This week was so great.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Between the Zone Conference, Thanksgiving, and the miracles we got to</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
see, I feel VERY thankful to be a missionary here. During the</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Conference we talked about the importance of working with members and</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
it was SO good for me. I always knew the importance to work with</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
members, but I never really knew how. We learned a lot though and I'm</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
excited to see the results.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here's your Calixto update and funny story for the week. One of the</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
things they talked about how to work with members more was using</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Seminary and Institute. So, we invited Calixto to come to institute</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and had everything ready to go. It was 5 after, so we called him to</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
see where he said that he was at the church, so we hung up and just</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
kept waiting. Another 15 minutes passed and he was NO WHERE so we</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
called him again and he said that he was at the church waiting by the</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
TEMPLE in PAVONES. AHH!! I have no idea how the miscommunication</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
happened, but long story short we were late to institute :) Luckily</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the temple isn't too far. He loved institute though the members here</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
are so awesome. They spent about 15 minutes planning everything for</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
his baptism. THIS SATURDAY! We are excited :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Our next miracle this week was Lourdes. She was the woman we found in</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the carpeta about 2 months ago. I haven't written about her in a</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
little bit because things have been a little slow with her husband not</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
really being on board with the whole thing. We had a lesson though and</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
she told us that her husband really isn't the problem, more she just</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
needs to make church a priority. She told us she didn't care if the</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
ceiling fell through, she would be at church. And for the first time</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
she came :) Biggest miracle!!! She is going to Ecuador for the month</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
of January which puts things on hold a little, but i'm very grateful</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
for the progress she is making.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I wanted to tell you about one more of our investigators that we met</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
with this week. Her name is Sonia and she is a machine. This week she</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
read 2/3 of the book of mormon. What?! She is literally is at the end</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
of Alma! Who is this girl?! I don't know how much of it she</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
understood, but she told us she knows that it is the word of God. She</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
has problems with the word of wisdom, but we set some goals and I have</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
faith that she can do it. She has come to church twice now and loves</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
it. Excited for her!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Oh one more thing. Nilo is still my miracle. With work he can only</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
come to church every other week, but he has come 3 weeks in a row! And</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
he made us ceviche again this week :) I told him that my parents were</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
coming in a few months and he said he'd make you guys some ceviche. So</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
get ready for some raw fish mom and dad :) It's delicious.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I think that is about it! I love you guys and am so thankful for each</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and every one of you. It's hard to be away from home during the</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
holidays, but it's also the best time to be a missionary. What better</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
time of the year to share the gospel than Christmas?! I love it and am</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
very excited for this month. Have a great week! I love you and am</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
praying for you!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;">Hola Mi Familia </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;">Happy Thanksgiving everyone!! I'm so thankful for each and everyone of</span></div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;">
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
you and for the blessings you are in my life. I'm thankful for the</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
gospel and for the opportunity to share it with the people of Spain.</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
I'm thankful for a loving Heavenly Father that leads and guides this</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
work and that I get to be a part of it. This week was a great one and</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
it absolutely flew!</div>
</span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;">The highlights of the week were definitely our temple visit and the</span></div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;">
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
meeting we had with Elder Christensen and Elder Dyches. I love these</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
men and their darling wives! They brought such a great spirit to both</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
of the meetings we had and they gave me the words I needed to here to</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
make me a better missionary. Sister Christensen especially stuck out</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
to me. First off she speaks Spanish perfectly so go her, but she was</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
so interested in our personal lives it was the cutest thing. She also</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
told me that I reminded her of Grandmother which might be the best</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
compliment I've ever received. I just cried! I absolutely loved the</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
meetings we had and the greatest part was Martin and Nilo came too :)</div>
</span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;">Our people are doing great. The biggest news is Calixto! He had his</span></div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;">
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
interview and is good to go :) there is a stake dance this Saturday so</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
we have to push it back until the 5th, but he's going to do it! Oh he</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
is the best. He has a lot of stuff going on right now and it amazes me</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
how he finds time to read and prayer every day, meet with us, and come</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
to activities and church every week. The man is great and so ready for</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
his baptism. Prayers were answered this week!</div>
</span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;">Our other friends are doing the same. Frustrating a little, but we are</span></div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;">
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
doing are best I'm trying to help them. Life in Spain is just hard!</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
People have to work ridiculous hours for hardly nothing and it doesn't</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
leave much time for anything else, but we are working with it. We were</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
able to find a less active this week and she might be the greatest</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
person. I don't think I've laughed that hard in months! Her name is</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Pilar and she came to church yesterday :) love her already.</div>
</span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;">We have been contacting and working with members like crazy and this</span></div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;">
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
week we were able to see the fruits of that. We have lots of new</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
people to teach and we are really excited about them! I'm not going to</div>

<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;">I think that's about it for this week. I'm currently on a train to</span></div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 18px;">

<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;">Hi Family!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;">Happy Monday! So fun to hear from you all and your fun adventures.</span></div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;">
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"></span>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;">Except Steph going to Celine Dione without me but I'm getting over</span></div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;">
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
that. Also happy happy birthday to madden Michael! Love you Geezer!</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
This week was a great one. I am obsessed with my companion! I just</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
laugh at her all day she is hilarious. It's going to be a great couple</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
of transfers :) We have lots of work to be done we are excited.</div>
</span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;">Our main thoughts and concerns are with Calixto right now. We had a</span></div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;">
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"></span>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;">really great lesson This week and he feels the spirit and recognizes</span></div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;">
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
that it is an answer from God, but wants to feel it stronger. He has</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
heard everything and is preparing for his baptism next Saturday. Very</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
exciting, but lots of prayers on his part so he can feel prepared and</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
ready to go. Oh he is great and I'm so grateful for him but the stress</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
I feel! I've learned that the lord really is in charge because there</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
is no way I could do this alone. He's the best companion!</div>
</span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;">We are still teaching our people and they are doing great, but they</span></div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;">
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"></span>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;">are hard! I don't know if it is because we are getting a little older</span></div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;">
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
or what, but everyone has things going on that are stopping them from</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
progressing. I will say that it is making me rely on the spirit a lot</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
more during lessons and that's making me a better missionary! So it's</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
all working out. And I can't complain because they really are great.</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Satan is just working hard, but we are working harder!</div>

<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;">
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
set up a lesson to go visit her. We showed up and she told us that she</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
was living with a member named Janet. I didn't remember who she was</div>
</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">

</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
I get to experience every day! Being a missionary really is the best</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
thing in the world. We had concilio this week and the mission home</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
full of missionaries is seriously one of my favorite places in the</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
world. Only second to the temple :) And maybe disneyland. :) We talked</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
about the importance of working with members and talking with everyone</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
and I always leave those meetings ready to be a better missionary.</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Our people are doing awesome. We had the funniest thing happen with</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Calixto this week. We had a lesson planned at a members house and we</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
were going to teach tithing. We went over and the elders were there</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
with their recent convert and her 4 kids and guess what they were</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
going to teach... tithing! It was an inspired noche de hogar :) And</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
calixto loved it. He came to church yesterday and is still doing</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
really well.</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Miracle with martin this week... He felt the spirit for the first time</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
AND he came to church!! I can't even tell you how hard I have been</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
praying for him and he finally felt the spirit! It almost made me cry.</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
And believe or not the mission has turned my heart into stone it takes</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
a lot to make me cry! He is one of the most intelligent people I know</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
and I'm so excited for his progression.</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Our other investigators are doing well. Aga is still coming to church,</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
it's just really hard to have a good lesson with her. There is always</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
a million things going on and it's hard to have focused lessons, but</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
we'll keep trying. Ramber is doing great. His mom still doesn't like</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
the fact that he is coming to church and wanting to get baptized, but</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
his dad is supporting him and his brother gets home from his mission</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
next month. He wants to get baptized sooo bad and we are praying hard</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
that his mom will give him permission.</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Side note- I am writing from my piso and listening to christmas music</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
:) They don't celebrate thanksgiving here anyways haha!</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Nilo is awesome. Seriously!! We had the BEST noche de hogar with him</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
and his family this week. Complete with ceviche and everything :) He</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
shared his testimony and the spirit was so strong and I left that room</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
feeling better than I do leaving baptisms. Seriously this man is</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
incredible. I love his sister too they really are the greatest family!</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
We are continuing to work hard with some other people we have found</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
and are always looking for more people to bring unto Christ. There is</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
lots of work to do here! I'm very grateful to be here in Barrio 3. And</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
grateful that i'll probably be here for a while :) Except that they</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
are making my play piano for the primary program... Wow those spanish</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
kids sing fast. I'm getting better though!</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
I think that is about it for this week. I want to end telling you</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
about my experience in church yesterday. Ever since conference I have</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
tried to set the goal of going to church really prepared to take the</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
sacrament. And I can't even tell you the difference I have seen in how</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
much I LOVE going to church. I am literally filled with the spirit</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
after taking the sacrament and i'm so grateful to get to participate</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
every week. And the talks and classes too I learn so much from these</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
people. I love sundays! And I love being a missionary :) I can't say</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
it enough. Thank you for all you guys do for me I will be praying lots</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
for you this week. I love you!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;">Hi Family!!</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Wow I just can't believe it is already Monday again and it's NOVEMBER.</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Where does the time go. I hope everyone had a happy Halloween! I</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
dressed up as a sister missionary it was pretty great. We had a roller</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
coaster week full of lots of ups and downs, but the highs were high</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
and I'm excited to tell you about them.</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
At the beginning of the week, I got to stay in Toledo and do an</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
intercambio with Hermana finch. It was so nice to be with her again!</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
I've met the most amazing people on my mission and I will forever be</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
so grateful for them. Not to mention I got to work in Toledo. That</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
place is beautiful!</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
The next day we got to go to the temple. Wow I can't even express how</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
great it was to go there this week. 7 months is a long time! I don't</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
know how people do it there whole missions. As the session progressed,</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
the spirit increased so much and I just didn't want to leave. I love</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
the temple, especially the Madrid temple. It is my place here in my</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
mission and I'm so thankful for the chance to go once a transfer.</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Now on to our people :) we had the greatest miracle with an inactive</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
member named Nilo. He is the brother of one of my favorite members and</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
hasn't been to church in 15 years. We met him this week and shared 3</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Nefi 18 about when Christ administered the sacrament to the nefites.</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
My testimony was strengthened about not only that the lord prepares</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
people, but about how great of a teacher the Book of Mormon is.</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Because guess what? He came yesterday! And we are meeting with him</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
tonight to eat ceviche my favorite Peruvian food :) he's a miracle!</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Our investigators are progressing along! We saw Calixto 4 times this</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
week haha bless his Heart! The members have been helping so much with</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
him and he has now come to church 2 times in a row :) we need to</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
change is fecha, but I have faith that he'll get baptized soon. The</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
members have also helped us so much with Martin and he loves them. We</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
taught about the sacrament this week and he normally works sundays,</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
but he promised he'd come next week. Praying hard for him! That guy</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
loves the Book of Mormon it's the best.</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Lourdes is doing well, she is struggling a little bit though. Her</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
husband is Spaniard and he really doesn't like the idea of her meeting</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
with us or getting baptized. That makes things like seeing her or her</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
coming to church a little difficult, but she knows the church is true</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
so we'll keep hoping, praying, and doing our part. Elena and Ramber</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
are still doing great though :)</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
I have to tell you guys the worst thing that happened this week. You</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
need to understand first though that we talk to so many people every</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
day and it is really hard for me to remember everyone's faces. We had</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
set up an appointment with a future investigator named Jose in a park</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
and when we showed up he called us and said he would be 20 more</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
minutes so we went and contacted. We were talking with a guy and all</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
of the sudden this random guy comes up and is just creeping on us. We</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
finished our conversation, said hi to this creepy guy just staring at</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
us contacting, then ran back to the park thinking we were late. We got</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
to the park and called Jose to see where he was and he said, "You just</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
said hi to me then ran away!" The creepy guy was Jose!!!!! I feel</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
terrible. We were bad representatives of Jesus Christ right there we</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
totally forgot about him. Hopefully he will give us a second chance</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
haha! So terrible.</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Happy note though- I don't know if you remember Roberto (investigator</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
from Alcorcon) but he got baptized this week!! He always had a</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
testimony and the desires, but he didn't have permission from his</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">Hola Familia!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
So fun to hear from you this week. I know I sound like a broken</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
record, but I seriously love mondays! You guys are the best. I am</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
currently writing from... Toledo! We came here as a zone for p-day,</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
and I am staying for 24 hours to do an intercambio with Hermana Finch.</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Could it get any better?! I love her and I love Toledo. We had an</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
awesome week this week in Barrio 3 filled with lots of miracles with</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
our new friends.</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
First off- Lourdes. Oh she is my miracle! We met with her this week to</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
go over lesson one and she literally recited the first vision with</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
us... Who does that?! She is so prepared. She expressed some concerns</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
about her husband because he doesn't believe in God at all, but we</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
explained how we have the gospel to bless our families not to make</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
things worse. We're hoping and praying that all goes well with that.</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
She really is amazing though!</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Calixto is also doing really well. We were able to meet with him at a</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
members house this week and he still continues to have no problems! He</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
loves everything we are teaching and has desires to be baptized, he</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
just is waiting to receive his answer. He is doing his part though,</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
and I have no doubt it will happen soon!</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
We had a huge miracle with Nemesio this week. He is very spaniard and</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
sometimes it's a little hard to have the spirit in our lessons, but he</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
was so calm this week. He expressed doubts about Joseph Smith and</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
tithing, but said that when he receives answers to those doubts he</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
wants to get baptized. These three are the most progressing right now</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
and we really are just walking by faith! The Lord has done His part,</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
we are trying our hardest to do ours, and now it is up to them.</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Praying hard for these three! Elena and Ramber are still doing well :)</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Just waiting for December!</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
We also have 2 new investigators that I wanted to tell you about. The</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
first one is Marcos. He is from Argentina and from the beginning he</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
told us he is just around to get to know the mormon culture better.</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
But he absolutely loves church and loves the lessons we have. I have a</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
lot of faith that something in him might change! We also taught this</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
guy named Danny this week. We contacted him my first week here and he</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
wanted nothing to do with us, we didn't even get his number. We gave</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
him our card though and 4 weeks later we got a call! That NEVER</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
happens! We taught lesson 1 and it went really well. I am excited!</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
I got to go on two intercambios this week and they were both awesome.</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
I stayed here in Barrio 3 for both. One was with Hermana Valencia and</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
she is such a great missionary. She is from Chicago, but her parents</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
are from mexico so she speaks perfect spanish and I learned so much</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
with her. The other was with Hermana Shurtz and that is one of the</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
funniest sisters I have ever met! She has the sweetest testimony too</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
it was so fun to get to know her. I feel so blessed to serve with such</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
great Hermanas!</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
I think that is about it. I didn't eat anything too weird this week,</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
but a bird did poop on my companion this week while we were contacting</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
a spanish man and that just about made my week haha!! Also seeing my</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
people from Alcorcon was the greatest. I am doing good :) Very happy</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
to be a missionary! We had interviews this week and I still just feel</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
so blessed to have the Packs. The Lord takes care of his missionaries!</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Thank you so much for all the love and support you send my way. I love</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
you and hope you have a great week!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">Hello family!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">Thank you thank you for all the great updates! Happy to hear that all</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
is well on your side of the pond :) Things are going really well here</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
in Madrid. We had an awesome week in Madrid. I'm excited to tell you</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
all about it!</div>
</span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">First off, we had two of our six intercambios this week and they were</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
awesome. For the first one, Hermana Hinton came here with me in Barrio</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
3. She is in training with Hermana Rossberg (I'm a grandma!) and</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
she is awesome. I asked her what made her decide to come on a mission</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
and she said, "The gospel is just the best and everyone needs to hear</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
it!" haha I love it :) Fun to work with her. Then I went up to</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Villalba with Hermana Stephenson and oh I LOVED it. If I ever move to</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Spain i'm living in Villalba. It is up my the mountains and it is</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
absolutely beautiful there! And only about 30 minutes from Madrid :)</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Hermana Stephenson is an awesome missionary too it was fun to work</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
with her.</div>
</span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">We had lots of miracles this week in Barrio 3. The first I wanted to</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
tell you about was Lourdes. So in our piso, we have this chest of</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
drawers with all sorts of things in it. It wasn't that bad, but from</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
the first day I got here I have been dying to organize it haha! We</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
don't have much free time as missionaries and everytime we had a spare</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
minute or two, something came up. One morning this last week I had had</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
it and opted to organize it over doing my hair (Hermonie hair yayy). I found a carpeta in it from about two years ago that hadn't been</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
touched in two years! This is gold for missionaries!! We opened it up</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
and the first page was Lourdes. She had heard everything and was ready</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
to get baptized 2 years ago, but she wasn't married. We called her and</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
set up an appoinment and guess what... She's married now!!! She said</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
she got married in may and has been thinking about the missionaries</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
and baptism since then. She wants to hear everything again since it</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
has been 2 years, but so much potential there! Not sure if it was the</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Spirit or my OCD that made me clean that morning, but i'm very happy I</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
did :)</div>
</span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">Next miracle- Calixto. He is a 30 year old man from Ecuador and he is</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
awesome. We met him at the ward party last week and were able to teach</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
him lessons 1 and 2 this week. He loved it! Especially lesson 2. The</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
plan of salvation is that best! He wasn't able to come to church</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
yesterday, but wow that guy is prepared. I'm excited to see what's in</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
store for him. We were able to find a few more new investigators this</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
week and now we just need to make the change from new to progressing.</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
I am amazed at the blessings we are receiving over here!</div>
</span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">Our other main investigators are doing pretty well. Elena is solid, we</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
are still working on helping Aga quit smoking, and Ramber and Leidy</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
are still kind of in the same boat. It's really hard with a mom that</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
isn't supporting them at all, but there brother gets home from his</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
mission in December and i'm excited to see if anything will change</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
with that. I forgot to tell you guys about Nemesio too. He is a</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Spaniard man married to one of the members and he's tough. I love</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
spaniards with all my heart. They are so caring and sincere, but they</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
are also very blunt and a little stubborn. We met with him last night</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
and i'm hoping something we said touched him. Pray for that guy!</div>
</span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">Fun fact- I think I might have eaten horse this week. I don't know if</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
I really did or if the elders are just enjoy stressing me out, but</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
either way I ate some type of meat that was not bee, pork, or chicken</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
haha. It was yummy!</div>
</span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">Also, this week is Stake Conference and guess who is in my stake...</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">I think that is about it for this week. It is raining like crazy</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">Hi cute family!</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Monday's are the greatest. I love hearing about all your adventures!</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Happy to hear that everyone is doing well. What a great week we had in</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Barrio 3. My testimony of the power of prayer was strengthened so much</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
this week. I know that if we pray with specific questions or needs</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
then do our part, The Lord does his. We saw so many miracles this</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
week. I'm excited to tell you about a few!</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
The week started off with our concilio at the mission home and I</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
always leave so ready to work! We talked about the plan of salvation,</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
keeping the sabbath day holy, and finding with faith. The thing that</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
stuck out to me the most was finding! Hermana Pack talked about the</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
importance of asking specifically about what we want to happen, then</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
going and doing it. We put that to the test and I am so grateful for</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
it. I know that Heavenly Father lives and listens to our prayers. This</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
knowledge has made my prayers more sincere and my relationship with my</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
heavenly father stronger. How grateful I am for prayer!</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
After concilio I was able to go on our first intercambio for the</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
transfer (we have SIX!). I stayed here in Barrio 3 with Hermana</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Freestone and it was great. It was only my second week here so it was</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
an adventure trying to get around, but it all worked out! She is an</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
amazing missionary. Hermana Toone trained her so it was fun to share</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
stories and to learn more from her.</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
I got to meet a few more investigators this week that I wanted to tell</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
you about. The first is Aga. She is from Poland and has been through</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
SO much. If I told you you wouldn't believe me! She has a long way to</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
go, but she absolutely loves coming to church and meeting with us.</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
She's so cute she is trying to quit smoking and it is really hard for</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
her, but she makes sure that no matter what she doesn't smoke sundays</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
so she can come to church clean. It's a start! Like I said it will be</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
a while, but I have faith!</div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
I also wanted to tell you about a family we found, the Claure Family.</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
The dad is a less active, mom anti-mormon, son on the mission, and we</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
are teaching their other kids Leidy and Ramber. We had a lesson with</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
the whole family and it was very clear that the mom did NOT want her</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
son to be on a mission or for her other kids to be going to be</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
baptized any time soon. We left a little discouraged thinking there</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
wasn't much hope, but Ramber walked in to church all alone sunday.</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
This guy is amazing!</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
The greatest thing happened this week. We were walking to pass by for</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
some investigators when we saw this woman carrying home groceries when</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
her bag broke. We went over to help her and long story short we ended</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
up in her house teaching the restoration and have an appointment to</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
see her again this week. A million and one things happened so that our</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
paths crossed and it is so evident to me that The Lord is at the helm!</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Last story sorry we will be here all day. Yesterday we had 2 lessons</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
set up with people that seemed a little sketchy. We were walking to</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
the lesson and I pulled out my iPad to look up an address of a less</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
active the bishop told us to go visit soon. Right when I found it my</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
companion said, "Hermana I think we should go visit that family Bishop</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
told us to go see." I turned my iPad to show her what I just looked up</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
and we just smiled and were off! She let us in and ended up teaching</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
her sister who isn't a member. It went so well and have an another</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
appointment this sunday to go and see her and well as tuesday to meet</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
her husband who isn't a member. What!! The Lord is so great.</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
I could go on and on. This was a really great week. Really fast though</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
we ended the week with a ward activity and it was so great. The</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
majority of members brought their friends and we have a few that are</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
interested in hearing a little more. So excited! I feel like the work</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
is picking up a little and i'm excited to see what is in store. I</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
don't know how to describe it other than saying that I know that God</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
lives and answers prayers. We have struggles to make us stronger and</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
even when they are hard, we turn out better because of them. I am</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
grateful for the hard days because they caused me to turn to my</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Heavenly Father and know him better. And I can't think of anything</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
better! I love this gospel with all my heart. As President Uchtforf</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
said, "It works wonderfully!" Have a great week!</div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Hola Queridos!</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Oh it's so great to hear from you all. Happy that everyone is doing</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
well and enjoyed conference :) Wasn't it amazing?! I still am in awe</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
at how blessed we are to get to experience that twice a year. It is</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
amazing that even though there are thousands of members all around the</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
world listening, it seems like the words were prepared just for me. I</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
came to conference with LOTS of questions and I was able to receive</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
guidance and direction from The Lord with all of them. I want to share</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
some insights with two of my questions, but first I have to recognize</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
my cute grandfather. He did amazing! I absolutely sobbed the whole</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
time haha! So very proud of him.</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
My first question will help you fill in a little bit about how my new</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
area is. Precursor though: This experience is not to complain! I feel</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
so incredibly blessed to be serving where I am and with who I am with.</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
I am doing great and am happy, this experience will just help the</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
miracle of the story :) We have a couple of friends that are</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
progressing and are ready to accept the gospel, but other than that we</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
are basically starting from square one. We have spent a lot of time in</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
the streets which has actually been a really great experience for me.</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
My weaknesses are becoming stronger and I have never given so much my</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
in my entire mission which is a great feeling when we get home every</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
night. We talked to everyone we passed and have had some amazing</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
conversations, but it is a little disheartening when the numbers turn</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
out being false or promised people don't show. My question was, "How</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
can I find happiness in trials and make sure I am giving it my all?"</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
After watching General Conference I was overwhelmed with The Spirit</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
and received my answer- love! Whether that means serving my companion,</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
seeing the people in the streets as children of God, or a simple smile</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
to the members here. Looking back I realized that that really is when</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
I am the happiest and i'm excited to put it in practice this week :)</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
My second question had regards to the spirit and how I can better</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
follow its whisperings. I had all types of different thoughts and</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
ideas running through my head throughout the conference and i'm not</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
going to lie, I felt a little confused by the end. My emotions were</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
all over the place, then cute President Eyring started. I think he</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
wrote that talk just for me! It was exactly what I needed to hear and</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
I can't wait to reread it. I LOVE conference! I love our dear prophet.</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
I am so grateful that someone like him is willing to give literally</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
everything he has so that I can be closer to my Heavenly Father and</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Jesus Christ. The church is so true!</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Okay there was my general conference rant. I love it!!! I really am so</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
happy to be here in Barrio 3. It's fun to be back in Madrid! :) The</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
members here are so great i'm so excited to get to know them better.</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
We do have one friend that I wanted to tell you about, her name is</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Elena. EIGHT years ago she was praying to know which church she should</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
join. That night she had a dream and she saw a church and the plaque</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
was blurred except the last words: "ultimos dias." The NEXT DAY</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
missionaries came knocking at her door. How great is Heavenly Father?!</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
She has had problems getting divorce papers from Bolivia so that she</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
can marry her boyfriend, but all the papers are done! We are know just</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
waiting for them to be mailed here and her and her boyfriend are</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
getting married and baptized December 24th :) She is great!</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
My companion is a machine. This is her last transfer and you would</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
never guess it she is on fire! I am so grateful for her hard work, she</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
makes me a better missionary. And she helps me SO much with my spanish</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
ah!! So grateful for her. I am so excited for this transfer and to see</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
what The Lord has prepared for this part of his vineyard. Being a</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
missionary is my greatest blessing. I love it! Thank you for all of</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
the love and support you send my way. Have a great week!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">Happy Monday! So fun to read about your weeks, i'm glad everything</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
went well. We had a pretty crazy week over here in Spain with</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
tranfers. As i'm sure you heard, i'm leaving paradise which absolutely</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
breaks my heart, but i'm going to a great place. It's pretty funny</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
actually about 3 days before we found out about transfers we were</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
playing the what if game and at one point I said, "I just want to stay</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
or go to Barrio 3 with Hermana Irigoyen!" Lo and Behold The Lord was</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
listening.... I'm going to Barrio 3 with Hermana Irigoyen! She is from</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Argentina (native wahoo!!) and I have only heard great things. We are</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
going to be the sister training leaders there too which will keep us</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
extra busy. Hermana Griffin served there before she absolutely loved</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
it. So i'm excited :) Sad to leave paradise, but happy to go back to</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
civilazation haha </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">I do have some final updates on my people, the highlight definitely</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
being with Susi. She was confirmed yesterday and is now the newest</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
member in Las Palmas! She is incredible. She is going to help the</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
church in the islands be strengthened so much. She is already saying</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
the opening prayer in Relief Society and will have a calling in no</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">Next up, Danny. We had the BEST lesson with him this week. We didn't</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
even bring it up, he just started asking all of these questions about</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
his baptism and confirmation. He wants to get baptized and is ready to</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
go, he just wants to make sure his faith and testimony are strong</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
enough, which I am totally fine with. We have only been meeting for 6</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
weeks! Through out the lesson told us though that he has made the</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
decision to get baptized, he just wants to be more prepared. Sad to</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
miss it, but excited for the picture that will be coming soon :) He is</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
such a cool guy I feel so blessed to have met and shared the gospel</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
with him.</div>
</span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">Marina is also progressing towards her baptism as well. She is set for</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
just a few weeks away and feels ready, but wants her husband to be</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
there. He left to go visit his family in Brazil and will be back in</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
December. Again, sad to leave, but excited to see the pictures haha :)</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Last night they showed the women's broadcast and we were BAD</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
missionaries and totally spaced telling her about it. But I guess she</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
was paying attention during the announcements at church because she</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
showed up all on her own :) THE BEST! She got me the cutest gift, I'm</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">

Vanessa is hands down the most prepared investigator I have ever</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
taught. This week she asked is there was a member going to the temple</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
soon so they could do the work for her mom and her grandmother. What</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
investigator says that?! She is doing a LOT better with the word of</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
wisdom and is still coming with her dad and her girls every week.</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Praying hard that she will get baptized soon.</div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
of everything that she is going through, she has been SO sick these</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
last few weeks. She hasn't been able to make it to church because of</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
that, but she has been reading the book of mormon every single day.</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
She told us this week that she missed her bus because she was so into</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
the part that she was reading haha she is great. I'm going to miss her</div>

the UNITED STATES!!! She'll be there in November and I am so so</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
excited. I was absolutely dreading saying goodbye to her because we</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
have gotten so close over the last 6 months, but yesterday wasn't even</div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">Mi Querida Familia,</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Here we are at Monday again! Oh it is so fun to hear from you guys</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
every week. Thank you for the pictures, emails, and videos there</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
really isn't anything better. This week was AMAZING! Seriously there's</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
no way i'm going to be able to explain how great it was (and how FAST</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
it went!), but I will try my best :) It's going to be long head's up!</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Madrid was awesome. We got in early Monday and went straight to</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Pavones to play basketball with the Elders. Don't get me wrong I love</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
sports and everything, but the Lovell's were right there in the MTC so</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
we took that as a good excuse to go visit them. It was so fun to be</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
with them. After that we went to the mission home for lunch, to write</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
our families, and cook with Hermana Pack. After that we got to work! I</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
went contacting with a member named Augustine. She is about 70 years</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
old and i'm not going to lie I felt a little nervous for the next 3</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
hours, but wow was I wrong. She is a power house haha!! It was awesome</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
I learned a lot from her. After we got to sleep in the mission home</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
with some of the other sisters from the North and it was great.</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Tuesday was the concilio and it was amazing. I can't even express how</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
great the Packs are! We talked about the gospel of Jesus Christ, but</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
more specifically the first two steps: faith and repentance. As</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
missionaries we focus two much on the baptism and we brush over the</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
first two steps that make baptism possible. We also talked about the</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Sabbath Day and how our faith will grow when we are obedient to this</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
commandment. I loved everything about it! Our flight didn't leave</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
until wednesday so we spent the day helping the Packs with some things</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
and I felt right at home. They seriously are my parents here and I am</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
so grateful for them. They even woke up at 5 in the morning to take us</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
to the airport! They are amazing and I feel so blessed to have them as</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
my mission presidents.</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Wednesday and Thursday we spent in Tenerife doing intercambios and</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Zone trainings. It is so fun to be with other missionaries! I don't</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
know if it is just because I am serving on a teeny island, but any</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
chance we get to visit with other missionaries is a great one. I went</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
out with Hermana Mattson and she is an incredible missionary. After a</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
long four days though, we were very happy to come home to Las Palmas</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
and get to work.</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
The big news is Susi's baptism. Oh wow that might have been the best</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
baptism I have every been to I just cried! We've been waiting for</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
September 20th for a long time and it still doesn't even feel real.</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
And the biggest miracle... her ex-husband came! This man wants nothing</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
to do with the mormon church and we were all in shock when he walked</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
in the door. Not only did he come, but when Susi was sharing her</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
testimony, we looked back and he was in tears. Which only resulted in</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
the girls running up to us with tears in their eyes telling us that</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
their dad felt the spirit. It was a miracle! Hoping and praying that</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
they can get baptized soon. It was amazing.</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Danny is the best. Yesterday at the baptism he kept just saying how</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
nervous and excited he was. He is still deciding on whether or not he</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
wants to get baptized this saturday or wait a few weeks, but we're</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
probably going to hold off a little bit. There's no hurry! Sad for me</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
because i'm most likely not going to be here, but he's getting</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
baptized!! Best news for a missionary :) Marina came to the baptism</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
too and is so excited for when it is going to be her turn. We are very</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
blessed missionaries here in Las Palmas!</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
This is the last week of the transfer and we are receiving 43 new</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
missionaries this transfer... 43! Lots of changes and crazy things</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">

I love my companion, mission presidents, investigators, area, members,</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
family, and most importantly my Heavenly Father and Savior Jesus</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Christ. I am overwhelmed in the blessings that I have received this</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
last year and the person that I have become thanks to them. I love</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
being a missionary and am excited to give it my all these last 6</div>
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
months. Thank you for all of the love and support, have a great week!</div>
