Wow, things happen fast!

Buenos Tardes Mi Vida

This week saw many blessings. We had stake conference and the prophet spoke to our region over broadcast. We had a family we have been teaching for over 6 weeks come to church along with a part member family whose son has never come before. I also was able to see everyone from my old ward and my new converts the damian girls!! we all just cried and we were so happy to see each other. I saw Hermana Solis (who is the mom of Elder Solis who is serving where Grandpa saw him) and she is doing well- Has Grandpa met Elder Torres yet? He serves in Arlington. Ruben is doing really well- he will be confirmed next week and is so excited to learn more. The day after his baptism we went by to see him and we realized his tv was gone! we asked what he did with it and he told us he threw it out because it was a waste of time and he needed to study the Book of Mormon!

I recieved a call from President again this morning and he asked me train again this next transfer. Sister Pahulu and I are sad to be separated but we have had an amazing time together and have seen many miracles in the Lord's work. Her name is Sister Berg and she will be coming from the MTC on wednesday. She is from Heber City!

Yes I am officially extended! I am really humbled by the opportunity. I know it is the Lord's will. There was opposition in this process as satan always has his fingerprints on it but all is set and ready to go. I do miss you all very much though and I will still see you soon. Tell Marian thank you for the e-mail I love her so much and she has to be the big girl in the house a little longer since brea left.

One of our Members who has helped us a lot with the work just moved to Sandy this weekend. His name is Samuel Aguilar- I gave him your address and phone number so that he can come visit ya'll. Maybe you could invite him to dinner or something....he has given so much time and effort to missionary work and we want to show him how grateful we are.. Mom your cell number is 801 380 1103 right? I hope so.....

One day as we were sitting at a stoplight I was thinking of some big tasks ahead of us with some of our investigators- I just came to the conclusion, the scriptures and thoughts came to my mind about entering into the Savior's rest, I want to be with him already and have him tell me everything will be alright....the thoughts passed and two days later I was sitting in a zone meeting studying and I read this scripture in Mosiah 3:13 " And the Lord God hath sent his holy prophets among all the children of men, to declare these things to every kindred, nation, and tongue, that thereby whosoever should believe that Christ should come, the same might receive remission of their sins, and rejoice with exceedingly great joy, even as though he had already come among them."

That was my answer, Christ is already with us and that is what we are bringing into the lives of all of these wonderful people. I try everyday to remember that He is always right beside us and that through difficult times we are to maintain that relationship with Him.

President Monson said that we if we do not try, we will not do, and if we don't do- then why are we here? I know his call to find those who are struggling right now is from the Lord and that the work can move forward at an even greater pace as we recognize Christ in those around us and treat them that way.

I Love you all so much!! Thank you for supporting me and the Lord's work. I know as we make our desires the Lord's desires we find real happiness.
