WEEK 37: Achievement Unlocked: Templo pt. 2

-

 🌄 😴 


GOOD MORNING YALLL WE BACK AT IT AGAIN WITH ANOTHA EMAIL!! 

This last Tuesday we had zone conference and I had to give a presentation and it was awesome. President gave us the invitation to find our favorite scriptures about the atonement of Jesus Christ and then to write a talk about it. I also saw my boy Elder Bullock. (Shoutout to him) 

We also went to the temple this week! We went with the missionaries from the peninsula, and it was so much fun. I started to get a stye on my eye and it really hurt to close my eye or blink. My comp told me in the temple it was starting to get bigger. I said a prayer in the temple asking for my eye to be healed and as soon as I left the temple It didn't hurt anymore and I haven't had problems with it since. Small miracle 💪

When we left the temple as well I was able to see the Bishop in one of my old wards and a couple member including converts! It was so fun to see and talk with them again. They told me I talk a lot more now and I think it's just because I know more Spanish lol. 

This past Sunday a Gringo pulled up to my sacrament meeting and told me that he served in my ward 4 years ago and that his mission was all paper and he didn't have phones. Also, he gave us a couple numbers of people he taught do were going to contact them this week 💪

I love you all! Espero que tengan una buena semana! 

Spiritual thought: 
D&C 63:
57 And again, verily I say unto you, those who desire in their hearts, in meekness, to warn sinners to repentance, let them be ordained unto this power. 
58 For this is a day of warning, and not a day of many words. For I, the Lord, am not to be mocked in the last days.

WEEK 18: Achievement Unlocked: Happy New Year!!

 Feliz Año!!  I'm not gonna lie the New Year was CRAZY here. There were fireworks going off literally everywhere. All along the horizon and people were lighting fireworks off in front of our house so they were above us too. It was awesome.  There are these things here called munigotes and they are paper machete statues of every USA thing you could think of and at the end of the year they fill them up with dynamite and just light them off in the streets. We weren't able to watch any unfortunately because we had to be in our house at 6pm yesterday.  Last night we played 5 crowns because one of the elders in my house brought it from home and we had sparkling cider as well. It was super cool because that's what my family at home ended up doing for new years as well. It was cool to live that tradition 4000 miles away lol. We had transfers this past week and I am still in my same area in the peninsula with my Guatemalan companion AND we're finally not in a trio anymore....

Week 99: ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED: BOM Miracle

  Wsg yall  First off I just wanna say that the Book of Mormon is TRUE. Like holy cow every single time I read it there is no doubt in my mind that God truly called prophets to the Americas and he called them to write their history and dealings with God  Increíble  This week we contacted a evangelist-Christian with the BOM. We asked her if her kids wanted to accompany us in the lesson but she said no because they follow her and her religion. She explained to us that she already knew Christ and that she didn't need to know more about him. We offered to give her the BOM and she said, "No but please give it to someone who has an open heart and is willing to listen to your message" So we left.  A couple minutes later a truck pulled up next to us and called us over. He explained to us that he was the son of the lady we contacted and he said, "Give me the Book, I want to read it" WHATTT milagraso.  1 Nephi 14:1-2 1 And it shall come to pass, that if the Gentiles ...

WEEK 29: Achievement Unlocked: The Office

  This week started off like normal. A little slow, not really teaching anybody, the usual. My comp and I started making plans on how to improve the sector and we were talking about writing a song because we got permission to play guitar throughout the week.  This week was also transfer week. My comp and I didn't think much of it because we white washed the sector, which means we both started at the same time. We hopped on a call and I heard, "Elder Johnson has transfers". WHAT. How the heck do I have transfers? I was distraught, sad, angry. I didn't want to leave the sector or live with new elders and a new companion. I also had only been in my sector for 1 transfer. I eventually said bye to all the members, and packed my bags.  Transfer day. We drove to the office and I was nervous. I didn't know where I was going or who I would be put with. The way transfers work here is that the zone leaders tell you that you have transfers, but you don't find out what you...
