Hola todos!
this has been an amazing week:) This was my last week in my favorite place in the entire world, doing my favorite work in the entire world. for that, my heart is so fullllllll and i have been sitting staring at this screen for atleast 10 min now, haha and the only words that are even coming to my mind is pero que puedo decir? (but what can i say!!) i have loved my mission so so so much! so i think for this last email i just want to share my testimony and how i have grown closer to christ:)
This week i had a lot of realizations of why we need missionaries, and the importance of the message we bring. the UNIQUE message of how we have christs church has been restored on teh earth, and how we have the power to seal families together here on earth!!!:) everytime i learn more about the gospel i am just AMAZED!! and this week in our district meeting i learned alot about our purpose, and angels:) haha ill explain:) here in puerto rico, people are just so so so kind:) and when we are talking to people many will just look at us and say we are little angels, y tell us dios les bendiga! and tell us we are doing such an important work! from people who are from every religion, becuase everybody here has such a huge faith in christ which is incredible to see! but as far as the angel part i mean we are pretty pale, and i know our faces do probably literally glow becuase of the sweat on top of the sunscreen! haha but it always just makes me feel so good! haha but something i have come to learn, is that really we aren't angels at all, we are far from perfect and work every day to buidl our fiath in christ so that we can help someone else do the same, so we may not be angels, but we are trying to do as christ would do, and say what he would say. sometiems as a missionary we just wish we could fix lots of things. w wish we could rebuild someones roof, overcome their addiction, help them see the lvoe god truly has for themmm! and so much more. but REALLY we have something better! we have the doctrine of chirst. we know that god has a plan, we know that we are alll SONS AND DAUGHTERS of a LOVING heavenly father, we know where we can find answers, and we know where to find peace. and i think that is one of the greatest thigns i have learned on myu mission. the doctirine of christ, and what it means to live the gospel. now i knwo think i fully understand why i need to god to chruch every sunday, why i would never want to deny myself of taking the sacrament, i know that through the atonement of Jesus christ we can find peace. i knwo that god does answers our prayers and that he will never leave us. y yo se que vive mi senor!
i am so so grateful for the opporutnity i had to get to know my savior. i also know that god NEVER stops teaching us, and that i have a lot to learn:)
i am so so grateful for all of my areas and every person i have met! i know that god puts people in our path to help us become who he wants us to become:) i am especially grateful for my last 6 months in my sweet brach in yauco! i have become incredibly close to every single one of them! This week god answered a lot of my prayers, and i know he is in the detail of our lives, he knows all of our worries and loves us so much!
i love you al so so so much!! so so much!! and am excited to see you all soon:)
also sorry this is pretty long adn im not sure it makes sense but love youall!
