<span style="background-color: white; color: #141823; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif;">It's been 18 months since I've been able to hug on this girl!! Lauren's plans to extend her stay in Paraguay have been side-lined by complications from dengue and a high school spinal injury. Ed's on his way to Paraguay right now to pick up our sweet Missionary and bring her home!! They will be flying into Sacramento on Monday, Feb 8th, at 4:58 PM!! Join us as we welcome Lauren home!! I can't wait to get another one of these!!</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #141823; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #141823; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif;">It was a moment of doubt that she shared with her father, who immediately received a distinct impression - an image of Lauren surrounded by sweet and smiling children in Paraguay.</span><i class="_4-k1 img sp_UkKp2mjPS47 sx_74eaf5" style="background-image: url(https://static.xx.fbcdn.net/rsrc.php/v2/yp/r/aeO1ik7i7-T.png); background-position: 0px -3859px; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; background-size: auto; color: #141823; display: inline-block; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; height: 16px; vertical-align: -3px; width: 16px;"><u style="left: -999999px; position: absolute;">š</u></i><span style="background-color: white; color: #141823; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif;"> Ed shared the impression and Lauren set off to serve... When Ed reminded her of this experience in his email this week, Lauren responded...</span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #141823; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif;">Perhaps these are some of those faces her father saw, because they are, without question, some of Lauren's best and favorite treasures of the last 18 months!! </span><br />

Well, changes came to the mission... for everyone else but us!! Hna Jara and I will stay in Asuncion for another six weeks!! I couldn't be more excited!! She is the sweetest little Peruvian!! I love her, she's such a sweetheart and a doll!! The area we are in is called 'Moroni' and it is FANTASTIC!! It is so lovely!! And the temple is in our area, and every Monday, we stop by to clean it! :) It's so special to go inside and help maintain and care for this precious place that others paid such a price to provide for us!! Being inside, even to clean, you can just feel the Spirit and know that it is here, in the temple, families come together to be sealed for time and all eternity! </div>

On that note about feeling the Spirit -- this week I found myself thinking and meditating a lot on the greatness of God. I was pondering about my relationship with my Father in Heaven, I was thinking about my resurected and perfect older brother, Jesus Christ; and I was thinking about the scriptures, and the temple... I was deep in thought and pondering the many blessings and miracles and mysteries of God. Today I woke up early (because the wind outside was blowing so powerfully) and when I stepped out on the back patio, I looked up at the sky and was momentarily blown away at the sight before me... I looked up into the huge South American sky and there was no sky, just swirling clouds of gray and white and black with a hue of red sneaking through... It was awesome, just a marvelous sight -- and in the moment I was just in awe of our Heavenly Father... I couldn't speak, I could just watch, and as I took in the greatness and grandeur of it, a scripture came to mind... it is in Psalms and it reads...</div>

I can't tell you how many times I have read that scripture. Haha! But in that moment, it just had so much truth and power to it, it was a living scripture and I witnessed it. And I just wanted to share with all of you, that I know that God lives. I know that Jesus Christ, the Son of the living-God also lives, and sits on the right hand of the Father. I know that they are in control. I know that they love us and everything that the Father has done, since before the world was created, has been done for the infinite love He has for us -- and I know that whatever things happen in the future will be directed or allowed by Him, because of that infinite love. Trust in Him, love Him and be still and know that He is God. </div>

I hope in the craziness of the week, we all might be able to take a personal quiet moment to ponder and look to our Heavenyl Father. That we might look to strengthen our relationship with Him and the Son. That we might speak to them often and love them more and more each day. We are Children of God, and our God is an awesome God!! :)</div>

This week, I was studying a lot in the Book of Mormon and also the talks from our most recent General Conference. Of all the lovely thoughts and lessons learned and great scriptures found... the resounding theme I found for me was <i>to not get caught in the thick of thin things. </i></div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1452816199221_354284" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">

One of the best sources I found was the talk "<b><i>A Summer with Great-Aunt Rose</i></b>" by President Dieter F Uchtdorf. It's so good!! (you can see the video by following this link </div>

It really is worth the few minutes you'll spend) He talks about our personal path of discipleship and how it can be a bright path, a happy path, a loving path, and a rewarding path... when we let our faith burn bright in Christ and in the promised blessings of our Heavenly Father. We can be like the painting of the pioneer girl.. with a spring in our step, cheerfully moving forward.</div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1452816199221_354355" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">

I have a tendency to sometimes get lost in the thick of thin things... I let the little things that don't matter suddenly become big things that matter too much. The misison has really helped me learn how to take a step back, prioritize things again... make sure that Christ stays at the top of the list... and then focus on the blessings that He has given me and the blessings He has promised me for obedience to His commandments. </div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1452816199221_354356" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">

As we count our blessings and remember to breathe and excercise faith, we can do the impossible, we can enjoy the moments that seem impossible to get out of, and we can find sunshine even on a cloudy day :) </div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1452816199221_354357" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">

Discover faith. Let that faith lead to hope. Let that faith and hope give you the confidence that one day everything will make sense, because of the Savior, all the wrong can be made right... Like Aunt Rose says in the story... it doesnt matter what is happening or has happened in the past... our stories can have their happy ending! :)</div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1452816199221_354359" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">

Take the necessary time to step back and simplify... to think of the things that matter most. Remember to count your blessings and to have faith in the blessings that the Lord has promised you! :) Serve others and love them, as you do... your stress, worries, anxiousness will all fade away and the bright path of discipleship shall shine before you and you can follow that path with a spring in your step and a smile on your face... you will keep stepping forward and grow in faith, grow in your love for God and fortify every footstep along your way to your happy ending!! :)</div>

President decided that we, Hna Jara and I, should have our own house (we've been living with Hna Bringhurst and Hna Nuckles) to give us more space and freedom with our early schedule. So, he gave us a budget and one week to find a house... so, the house hunting began.</div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1452522465716_110098" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">

It was kind of funny looking for houses as missionaries... we don't have GPS, or sophisticated smart phones, or really any type of "technology" to try and find a house... it just came down to knocking on doors, asking around, and following the spirit. Hna Jara and I found almost 15 houses in Asuncion... but all of them were outside of our budget. So we went to the mission office and with Elder Zarabia's help, we began calling, working our way down a list of 30 different rental announcements. We had no luck and we knew that our weeks deadline was coming up quickly -- so, we said a quick prayer, made the last phone call... and BOOM! No answer... Dang it!</div>
<div style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">

<div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1452522465716_110099" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
We went back out to work and continue searching, but we were a little discouraged... we were struggling to find a house, and everyone we contacted was rejecting us or making crazy commentaries, we felt like we were just wandering aimlessly through Asuncion.... and we were exhausted! </div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1452522465716_110100" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">

So, we found a little shade on a street corner, sat down and offered another quick prayer. Once we finished, not even 2 minutes later, a car stops right in front of us... The gentleman asked us "Are you guys looking for Bishop's house?"... We were so surprised... we asked him if he was a member and he told us he was and proceeded to say "You look like you could use some cold water and quick rest... my wife is inside, why don't you join us for a few minutes?".</div>
<div style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<br clear="none" /></div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1452522465716_110046" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
We accepted his kindness, and they sweetly recieved us in their home. I'd say this couple was in their mid 50s, and it turns out that their oldest son is one of the bishops here in Asuncion, and that their younger son lives in Mariano Roque Alonso... and they are the Suarez family!!! Like MY SUAREZ FAMILY!! Adriana and Miguel Suarez!!! They were such a special family for me -- their two little girls were just precious... Seriously, I considered them family. And now we were sitting in the grandparents house!! It was such a special connection! They offered us cold water and ice cream and we shared conversion stories. We finished with a scripture and a prayer and went back on our way. </div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1452522465716_110045" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">

Once we left the house, I seriously just started crying. My comp was so confused! Haha!!... Because I'm not one to cry... but I was just so overwhelmed with gratitude -- the Lord had heard our prayer and responded so quickly in the most unexpected and personal way!!</div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1452522465716_110101" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">

... So, on that same street corner where we asked for a tender mercy, we were able to thank the Lord for His quick and kind response... and for showing us that our Heavenly Father is mindful of us all -- He does hear our prayers in the very moment they are offered up to Him, and He puts people in our path for a reason! :) Still on the same street corner, a<span style="background-color: white;">fter we had offered our grateful prayer of thanks, the phone rang... it was Elder Zarabia... the house we were trying so hard to find... ended up finding us!! One of the real estate agents called with a house for us... 2 blocks from the temple and right within our price range!! :D</span></div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1452522465716_110103" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">

That little story may sound silly or insignificant, even like it could have just been a coincidence, but for me, it was so special, and exactly what I needed in the very moment I needed it! I was so grateful for how quickly the Lord answered my prayer, I was so grateful for the timing of it and the strength it gave me when I most needed it, and I am grateful that Hno. Suarez listened to the Spirit and followed the prompting to stop and inquire if we were okay. </div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1452522465716_110105" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">

I know that the Lord answers our prayers and that so many times He will answer our prayers through other people like YOU!! Many times, that subtle impression to call a friend, to hug a family member, to bring dinner to a members house, or just smile and say hello to someone on the street... Your small act of kindness, might be a big and meaningful tender mercy to the person on the recieving end. </div>

Thank you for all the smiles that you share, all the hugs you give, all the notes you write and all the prayers you offer up on behalf of others. They are important and they matter!! You matter!! :) You are all so very important and you can all be powerful instruments in the hands of the Lord. </div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">HAPPY NEW YEAR TO EVERYONE! This week when I was studying I came across another quote from Elder Jefferey R Holland (you can never have too many elder holland quotes :)!!) </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">āThe past is to be learned from but not lived in. We look back to claim the embers from glowing experiences but not the ashes. And when we have learned what we need to learn and have brought with us the best that we have experienced, then we look ahead; we remember that faith is always pointed toward the future.ā</span></h1>

<div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1451778878891_193254">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">And that's what this last year now is for us!! :) Isn't it so exciting to know that we can now apply all that 2015 taught us and just make 2016 the best year ever :)!!! I am so excited!!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This week, we as a mission are starting to read the Book of Mormon, cover to cover, again - with plans to finish before the next General Conference. I am currently in 2 Nephi and have just been loving it! We are reading, placing a special emphasis in looking for the themes of "faith" and "repentance and baptism". It has been really special to study and see how this has been the message of the prophets since Adam. The invitation has ALWAYS been for us to exercise our faith and REPENT and be baptized, that we might be made perfect and whole through the merits of Jesus Christ. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Isn't it so special to know that here on the earth, even TODAY, we have an authorized servant of God, holding the Lords priesthood authority who is ordained and worthy to excercise such power? Isn't it lovely to know that the Lord's prophets, even Thomas S Monson, recieve direct revelation from the Father and converse with Him, like you and I talk face to face? Isn't it beautiful to know that the Father has done all this for us? That we might walk in the light :)</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I am grateful to have a living prophet... I know that the windows of Heaven are not shut, but rather very much open. I know that the priesthood keys are here on Earth - allowing me to grow closer to my Heavenly Father and prepare myself with my family, for the eternities. I am grateful because I also know that the doors to revelation are very much open as well, allowing me, a daughter of God, to recieve His divine inspiration in my life. I am grateful for the prophet of God here on the Earth, and I sustain him, Thomas S Monson, as our prophet. And I am grateful for a Heavenly Father that continues invting us to come unto Him and to come unto Christ :)</span></div>

Mom, Thank you for feeding the missonaries on Christmas Eve... It is so nice getting to spend that time with a loving family who just has that special Christmas Spirit and I know that you guys were that family for them. Also, your cards and candy canes arrived and were distributed to all of the missionaries by Santa Bryant along with some other goodies!! Haha!! I know all the missionaries here in PAN and all who have passed through the ward back home have your name written in their journals and on their heart. You are a doll and I love you!!</div>

Yes, I am doing so much better... I am back to being the energizer bunny and working like there's no tomorrow!! :) Dengue is not fun... so promise me you will all be good about wearing bug spray in tropical climates!! Haha! But I am very grateful for this last week because it really did leave me with sweet memories and great relationships -- with new sister missionaries and with my Heavenly Father! :)</div>

Special thanks for Debbie Craner for sharing this photo</div>

<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">Okay, back to business!!! Changes... I was transferred! I am now working in Asuncion!! :) I live in the same house as han Bringhurst (my previous companion and our Mission Nurse)... There are four of us, Hna Bringhurst and her companion Hna Nuckles, and then me and my new companion Hna Jara. Hna Jara and I are working for all of Asuncion, we don't really have an 'area'. Why? Well, because our assignment has changed a bit. Let me explain...</span></div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1450717475707_60051">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Segoe UI, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1450717475707_60114" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">
So, the gospel of Jesus Christ is an amazing thing :) Learning how to excercise our faith and come unto Christ is special message -- and the blessing that families can be together forever is an amazing gift!! And this message needs to be shared with EVERYONE! Like it says in the scriptures... this message needs to sound in every ear! :) </div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1450717475707_60114" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">

SO... here, in Paraguay, the greater Asuncion area is a destination... EVERYONE comes in to work from the neighboring cities and towns. There are young adults, studying and looking for guidance... There are Dads, looking to provide for their families they love so much... There are moms working hard also, to make sure that they can provide their children the best life they can... They come in early morning hours and fill the streets. The city becomes full of people at the break of day, but there is a problem. At that hour... we don't have missionaries on the street yet because we are studying... But the gospel is for hard working, early risers too!! Yes, ABSOLUTELY!! So President McMullin assigned me and Hna Jara as 'Hermana Travelers' Haha! O sea... our work day begins at 6:30 AM, literally by 6:30, we are on the street contacting, looking for people to teach and share these good tidings of great joy that Jesus Christ brought to us!! :) We then have the first lesson with them, whether it be in the mission home or in the home of the family we contacted... then we look to assist them to get acquainted and integrate in their own local gospel community... we will go to church with them on Sunday at what ever chapel is in their area. Once we help them make the introductions and contacts, we pass the referral on to their local area Missionaries and continue to find people in Asuncion for what ever brings them there, who are ready to hear the gospel message!! </div>

It really is a whole different world in the morning. I am really enjoying it and I am learning so much as we go!! :) </div>

Hna Jara is fantastic!! She is a cute little Peruvian who has 5 months in the mission - almost 6. She has a beautiful spirit and smile and is excited to share the gospel!! It's going to be a sweet companionship!! :)</div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1450717475707_60120" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">

I am excited for this change... I know there is so much work to do, wherever we are sent! :) The gospel is meant for all of us, after all, we are ALL God's children... so we are going to hit the ground and run with it!! :)</div>

But, before I go, I just want to take a minute and let you guys know what a special treat it was to be in Salado with Hna Farish. Hna Farish is another very special person. I really needed her last change. She was a great example to me of selfless love and desire to serve. With Hna Farish, we were able to leave the house every day with a burning desire to share the gospel. We worked hard and we saw miracles. One of those miracles being the baptism of the Arue Family. I didn't get to be there for the baptism due to my dengue and hospital stay, but that's okay... because it is not MY baptism. I get to work in the field... but the success of the harvest belongs to the Lord. I am so grateful that I got to do my part in teaching them about this glorious message and am even more happy that they got to enter in the waters of baptism and begin this beatiful path of discipleship! </div>

I love you all!! :) Have a great week!</div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Soooooo, yes... word is out. I have dengue fever!! I have never had so much discomfort before... really. But, hey, it just adds to the experience, right?! Ha!! It's a very weird sickness... mosquito transmitted. But what is weird is just how every body reacts so differently to having it, and there is no actual vaccine or cure.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">My dengue sent me into a very high fever - and no matter how much tylenol I took, I just couldn't get a grip on my fever. It also brought a huge body rash, itchiness, insomnia, nausia, dizziness, eye pain, abdomen pain, bone/joint/muscle pain, etc... each symptom so severe... and caused my white blood cell and platelet counts to drop like crazy. Over the process of time, one by one, the symptoms started going away and different cycles of my dengue fever started as others stopped. It was a strange thing to experience... There is good news today - My blood test results came in this morning and everything is climbing. My white blood cells are normal again and my platelet count is starting to go up as well:)</span></div>

and original!! :) It really hit me how the Lord knows exactly what mission to
send each missionary, and then within our mission, who to have in different parts
of Paraguay! :)<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>These girls really are individually and personally

Sorry, I wrote a lot of personal emails today and focused on getting the pics off... I don't have much time to write an email -- so, if I don't get to write a group update, tell everyone I love them, read their scriptures, say their prayers on their knees and make some one smile... it's the recipe for success and happiness!! :) </span><br />

<br />
Things here in Salado have been FANTASTIC!! :) This week we were able to sit in and participate in a few different Zone Conferences and it was such an edifying experience. I felt like I had just walked out of General Conference... it was THAT good!! :)</div>
<div style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
In Zone Conference, President McMullin talked about obedience and its importance and then after President had given his portion of the Zone Conference, Hna Farish and I shared a passage of scripture that goes hand in hand with obedience. In 2 Kings 5 from the Old Testament there is a story of a man named Naman (the General for the army of the King of Syria) he was reveered, respected, estimeed by all... but he was also a leper. </div>
<div style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
In this passage Naman recieves word from a little servant girl that there is a true prophet of God, who could heal him. Naman left and searched for the prophet and when he found him... he was instructed that in order to be healed of his leprosy, he would have to go and bathe in the dirty River Jordan. (naturally, Naman didn't like that response too much :) Ha). But then, humbling himself, he did what the Lord had told him to do through His prophet... and because of his obedience and faith... he was healed.</div>
<div style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
This is really a lovely story.... and verse 13 is one that really stood out to me, when Naman first questioned the instruction the prophet had given him,<br />
<br />
"And his servants came near, and spake unto him, and said, My father, if the prophet had bid thee do some great thing, wouldest thou not have done it? how much rather then, when he saith to thee, Wash, and be clean?"</div>
<div style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
If the Prophet of God commanded us some <b>great</b> thing.... wouldn't we do it? Absolutely we would do it. But, if we change one word - the question takes on a new meaning and tests an even deeper level of faith.... If the prophet commanded us some<b> small</b> thing, would we do it?" If the prophet asked us to read our Book of Mormon cover to cover... would we have sufficient faith to fulfill that ask? If we were told to do our home/visiting teaching assignments.. would we? If the Lord asked us to hold family home evening once a week... would we? These small things do add up and they are OH so important.</div>
<div style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
Far too often we justify with simple excuses, that totally sound legitimate and justifiable. How many times have we caught ourself saying "oh I just didnt have time" or "it's just too hard". We have all heard those, haven't we? I know I have used those excuses more than once in my life. Haha.</div>
<div style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
But in all of the time I have had to really think, and pray and meditate this week... My mind was continually drawn to the Atonement of Jesus Christ. I found myself thinking about the sacrifices He made and the obedience which He showed and how it affects me today. :)</div>
<div style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
Matthew 26 39 "And he went a little further, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou <span class="yiv5636229778">wilt."</span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<span class="yiv5636229778"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<span class="yiv5636229778">There on bended knee, in total submission to every human experience possible.... He plead to the Father if there was no other way... but nevertheless,"Thy will be done". Can you imagine, if in that moment, Christ himself pulled out the same excuses, that we so often do? If he said " <i>But father, it's just too hard</i>" Can you imagine if he only suffered until it was <i><b>too hard</b>?</i> Or if he only suffered until He had something better to do, like leave the garden before Judas came and Christ was arrested?</span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<span class="yiv5636229778"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<span class="yiv5636229778">I am so grateful that Christ FULLY and COMPLETELY atoned for my sins. I am so grateful that He didn't do it until the point where it became too hard. I am grateful for Christ who suffered completely and provided me and you with this atoning sacrifice and not a "partial atonement". Now allowing us all the blessing of returning back to the Father.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<span class="yiv5636229778"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<span class="yiv5636229778">Christ was the perfect example of obedience :) Hebrews 5:8-9 </span>Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered; And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him.</div>
<div style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<br /></div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1448037246539_206032" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<div class="yiv5636229778" style="padding: 0px;">
Obedience brings blessings, exact obedience brings miracles, and obedience is how we show our love for the Father and gratitude for the Son, it is the first law of heaven. :)</div>
<div class="yiv5636229778" style="padding: 0px;">
<br /></div>
<div class="yiv5636229778" style="padding: 0px;">
I have been so very grateful to learn the importance of obedience here on the mission -- I know that I am still not perfect... (that will take a lifetime and then some :) Haha) but I know that there is no greater satisfaction that comes than from wearing yourself away in the work of the Lord. I love coming home exhausted after a long day of work in the field, knowing that today I did my best to bring to pass the Lords eternal purposes.</div>
<div class="yiv5636229778" style="padding: 0px;">
<br /></div>
<div class="yiv5636229778" style="padding: 0px;">
Moses 1:39 The path of obedience, the path of discipleship... that is the path that brings true happiness :) </div>
<div class="yiv5636229778" style="padding: 0px;">
<br /></div>
<div class="yiv5636229778" style="padding: 0px;">
Life is so much easier when we are obedient! :)</div>
<div class="yiv5636229778" style="padding: 0px;">
<br /></div>
<div class="yiv5636229778" style="padding: 0px;">
And when we struggle (because that is natural and inevitable), let us always remember those marks in His hands and feet... let us lay our burdens, hurt feelings, and discouraging thoughts all at the feet of the Lord and let Christ (through His Atonement) help change us and help us become better. Through Him we can improve and progress and we can change our hearts and our lives. :)</div>

<div class="yiv5636229778" id="yui_3_16_0_1_1448037246539_206033" style="padding: 0px;">

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">This week we had a few divions with some great hermanas! </span><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Segoe UI, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif;">I got to go back to Mariano Roque Alonso and work with Hna Hall </span></span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">and with Hna Morgan from Peru... (we enterd the CCM on the same </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">day together!) </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">AND I got to have divisions with Hna Bringhurst!</span><br style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;" /><span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">These beautiful sisters taught me so much this week! :) I loved it so </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">very much, I learned a lot about hard work, always wearing a smile on </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">your face, and ministering to the people that we serve. :)</span><br style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;" /><span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">With Hna Hall, I learned a lot more about hard work, using our time </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">effectively and recongizing the hand of the Lord in all things. :) </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">With Hna Morgan, I learned about seeing people for what they can </span><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Segoe UI, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif;">become... Looking beyond where they are, where ever it may be and seeing </span></span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">them as the Lord sees them. :) </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">And with Hna Bringhurst, I learned about just pushing through even when it </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">gets hard... being obedient. :) We had every lesson fall through and no </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">one wanted to talk with us... it was hot and hard... but we kept </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">pushing and at the very end of the day, our last 2 hours... </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">we found the people that the Lord had prepared to hear His message and </span><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Segoe UI, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif;">we could feel and recognize the sweet tender mercy. </span></span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">It was special and it was in my beloved Mariano! I actually got to see some </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">familiar faces and it was definitely a sweet visit... Mama Paraguaya, </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">Tami, Mariana, Johana, Silvana - so many cherished friends...

<br style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;" /><span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">SO... this past week, as a mission... we have been studying the atonement </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">of Jesus Christ and I learned so much. It leaves me amazed when I try </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">and think about the love that our Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">have for us. I can't even begin to convey what I feel with words. But </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">what I can do is invite you all to get on your knees and ask the Lord </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">if He knows you, ask Him if He understands you... He will answer you!! :)</span><br style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;" /><span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">And then, if you are burdened or heavy laidened... if there is </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">anything that is troubling you or you are looking to change... I would </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">invite you to (through prayer) just lay everything at the Lords feet </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">and leave it there. Take upon you His yoke. :) Let the power of the </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">atonement take part of your life. :) I promise that as you do, you will </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">feel and undeniable love, and the things which weighed you down </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">before, shall be taken off of your shoulders and you shall feel that </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;">celestial help. :)</span><br style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;" /><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Segoe UI, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif;">I hope you all have just an amazing week!

mission field. In fact, I was going to leave the CCM in her group, but I
decided to stay a full 6 weeks there; she came to Paraguay left before I -- but
we were actually good friends over there! She is the new Hna Leader and
is AWESOME! <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>And this week we have gotten
to know each other SUPER well!... but thatās another story... OK, Iāll tell you

It started on Monday, I thought I was just coming down with a cold or
something... so, I took some cold medicine and went to bed. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>As soon as I hit the bed, I got SO hot and
then so cold... we took my temp and it was 102.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

and we keep on working. I was thinking that maybe I was feeling a bit better,
but my back was really hurting and I was extremely dizzy and started feeling
like I was going to collapse.... but it was the day of changes, so, I took my Tylenol
and my new comp and I went to our new area and started working. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>When we got home, I literally couldnāt stand
any longer, I thought I was going to be sick to my stomach and I was so cold. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We took my temperature and it was hanging at
103.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

up... I knew I wasnāt good, but I took my Tylenol and kept on going. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I took my temperature in the morning, and my
fever came back down to 102, <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>so we went
out and worked. I didnāt want to complain but I mentioned to my comp that I
wasnāt feeling too well. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>She knew about
the fever and some of the other symptoms, but neither of us was thinking it
would be a big deal. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>In spite of trying
to just work through it, my condition was declining, so I finally I told her I
needed to call Hna McMullin... we got a doctors appointment that afternoon, and
instead of sending me home, I was admitted to the hospital now holding a fever
of 104.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Long story short, I'm feeling good now (suspected infection caused the fever, etc), the antibiotics are working; I loved getting to
know Hna Farish; I learned the difference between complaining and just being
honest about the condition of health... like, if you have a fever and your
whole body is telling you to stop... you should stop. Ha!</span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Itās impressive how the Spirit can communicate
those thoughts to us (I know that it spoke to me)... so, I also learned that
I need to be better at listening. :)</span></div>

had was inspired, because it gave me and Hna Farish a really good opportunity
to get to know each other before starting a crazy big and very busy change.
Hospital time translated into a beautiful start of what will be a great
friendship and companionship. Heavenly Father really is Perfect.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

bug got a hold of this girl and I have a lovely cough, so, now I sound like an
80 year old man who has smoked all his life... #notevenjoking. Haha!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Itās actually kind of hilarious! Ha! <o:p></o:p></span></div>

those that are wondering!! ;) Bring it on!!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Itās all good with us! :) We are happy, We
are working hard, We are loving life out here in Pedro Juan -- and we are also
slightly nervous for cambios next week because it sounds like there will be BIG
changes out here! Itās been such a good run with Hna Ashby and such happy companionship,
but I think she ready to train.... Yes, mark my words... she will be training!!
:) Haha! <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Anywhoooo...<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-size: 14.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">Well, last week
I put my "ponderizing" scripture to the test and WOW! It changed the

stronger and stronger in their humility, and firmer and
firmer in the faith of Christ, unto the filling their souls
with joy and consolation, yea, even to the purifying and
the sanctification of their hearts, which sanctification
cometh because of their yielding their hearts unto God."</i></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-size: 14.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">I love this
scripture because itās all about experiencing true submission and repentance, or in other
words, a "true change of heart". But it also demonstrates how that
change is not effortless... it requires deliberate energy and desire on our part. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-size: 14.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">SO... this week
I really made an added effort to teach our investigators and families in a way
that would convey the importance of repentance, that they might truly submit
their hearts and be converted. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>And also
so that they might better comprehend our purpose as missionaries and that we
are there to invite them to come unto Christ and become converted to him
through faith, repentance, baptism and confirmation. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Or more simply.. HELP THEM HAVE THE VISON AND
UNDERSTAND THE NEED TO BE BAPTIZED :) because they will understand it as a crucial,
vital and ever so important step.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-size: 14.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">And wow, I donāt
know why I didnāt put this extra emphasis on teaching sooner... it changes
everything. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-size: 14.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">We have been
working with one of our investigators, C, for a few weeks now. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>C was an atheist buddhist, who was angry with
God for having felt abandoned in the midst of her trials (and she has truly had
many). <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>She was not happy and she
recognized that she had no peace or joy in her life. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>She found herself ready to embark in this
search for faith and that was exactly when WE were lead to her! :)<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-size: 14.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">The first visit
we had with her, we talked about faith and the process in obtaining it. We
looked to understand her needs and also to help her understand the importance
of prayer, church, and the scriptures in finding her faith. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-size: 14.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">Then, on the
second visit, she shared with us that YES! She had ben saying her prayers and
she was reading the Book of Mormon. She is so GREAT! <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We decided to show her a conversion story from
the Book of Mormon. So we shared the conversion of King Lamoni. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We showed her what the missionaries in that
time presented the king and what the king was then instructed to do. We broke
down the conversion process to help her see the goal, what the end was. Just
the fact that we are here shows YES she can have faith, BUT we are also here to
help her have more than that! :) We are here to help her have a testimony, to
be converted and prepare herself to return back to her Heavenly Father. I donāt
think I have ever seen anyone so full of light, so full of hope as I saw her in
this moment. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>She even commented to it
and began to share special experiences where she is personally coming to know
that God is answering her prayers and that He really is there -- and has always
been there for her. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-size: 14.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">She is ready to
go forward and start with the lessons, to pray and ask the Father if they are
true and study and pray on her own time... and not because itās what "we
the missionaries" are assigning her to do, but rather because she really
understands that these are the only things that will help were wax strong in
her faith in Christ, that these are the things that will bring purification and
sanctification to her. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>And there are
special blessings awaiting her as she begins keeping these small commandments.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-size: 14.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">I really do know
that prayer and fasting are just two of the many tools our Father in Heaven has
given us to succeed here in this life! :) I know that our prayers are received and
that the Father, in His own time, will answer every single prayer that is
delivered unto him! :)<o:p></o:p></span></div>

so much! Go make someone smile! :) And every one should take a picture this
week and send it to me! Haha YES!! :) I want a bunch of happy pics! :) I know

coming out and my watch tan line is about to become forever embedded on my
wrist, impossible to correct after the mission! :) Ha!! Our investigators are
progressing!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>They all came to church on
Sunday and Hna Ashby and I are enjoying the blessings that are coming through
obedience and hard work! :) This week the Lord showed me many areas where I can
and need to improve -- and I went to do divisions in Loma Pyta, San Jorge and
Santani. I spent time with Hna Mera, Hna May, and Hna Douglas :) <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">YESSSS, I got to
work with Hna Mera again, and it was so lovely. And we had a very special
moment with one of her investigators and it really taught me the importance of
testifying and sharing the gospel without fear, just trusting 100 percent in
the Lords promise that whom he calls, he qualifies. We taught her investigator,
R (a thirty-five-ish guy, who suffers a delay in speech due to a bad motorcycle
accident a few years back).<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>R, lives
with his Mom and when we arrived, we saw his mother and of course we immediately
invited her to pull up a seat and join with us. She hadnāt been part of their
previous discussions, but she accepted. We started with a prayer, I prayed that
the Lord would help prepare R for his baptism on the first Saturday of November
and when we finished... his Mother came unglued... "OH. So you want to
baptize my son?" well, yes... was our response and all she said was
"NO. He is Catholic and I am Catholic, we have always been and always
will. We will never consider changing it. You can leave if that is your
goal".... Woah. It was a pretty hard and bold response and we could have
just said okay and left. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>But the Spirit
was telling us to stay... I wasnāt sure what we were supposed to say... but I
knew we had to stay... so we did. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>And as
soon as we went to open our mouth -- the words that we were supposed to say
came out. The Lord opened our mouths and understanding and we were able to
share a very special message, testifying of the truthfulness of the gospel and
testifying of the way of the Lord. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>At
the end, she was quiet. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>She was thinking
and she decided that we could indeed come back the following day to teach her
about the restored gospel and the authority of God. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>She gave permission for her son to be baptized
and told us she would pray to know what the Lord desires for her. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Hna Mera and I left just so grateful and amazed
at what had just happened. The Lord loosened our tongues and helped us convey His
message through the power of the Spirit. If we had focused more on the
intimidation we felt initially, we would have lost one amazing investigator.
But by following the promptings of the Spirit, we were able to keep one and maybe
even find another in the process! :) The Lord is perfect!! :) <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">FAMILYYY! Well, hello hello hello there!! :)<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">So... letās start with my scripture of
the week! This week I'm ponderizing Alma 5:40, which says... </span><span style="color: #262626; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">For I say unto you that whatsoever
is good cometh from God, and whatsoever is evil cometh from
the devil.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I love this scripture.. it is SO
simple, but it says SO much. This morning when I picked this scripture to
ponderize, it immediately made me think about my relationship with my Heavenly Father
-- it made me think about just how much I love Him and how much more He
loves me. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I began to think about all the
<b>good </b>that has come to my life and I began to count my blessings, making
that connection that all these good things really are blessings from my
Heavenly Father. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I quickly became
overwhelmed with just how good my Heavenly Father is to me. It has all ready strengthened
my testimony of just how deep and pure His love is for us, his children! :)<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I think I'm really going to like this
whole ponderizing thing!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>:)<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">But anyways back to the week!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Itās been a busy week of Divisions, Zone
Conference, crazy storms, Hna Ashby was down with a bad back, but is doing so
much better now (I got to play PT!! :)), and so many blessings!!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This week I was able to visit with Hna
Larson and Hna Anazco! Hna Larson is a cute little southern blondie, who is the
sweetest person in the world!! <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>And Hna Anazco,
yes, was my sweet little Peruvian comp that left me 2 changes ago. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It was so great getting to work with them.
They taught me so much about the importance of being patient in all things and
seeking the good in everything. :) Also about the importance of sharing our
testimonies with those we teach and come across. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I have loved getting to go to all these areas
in Paraguay and having the opportunity to talk with everyone in our path. We have
found people, prepared people, READY to receive the gospel -- and it just
strengthened my testimony that the Lord is preparing people and we just need to
take the time to be diligent and seek them out. :) <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">ZONE CONFERENCE! I got to go to Asuncion
and participate in a Zone Conferences where we talked about always having a
plan and about the difference between a testimony and a conversion.... And I
absolutely loved that. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We canāt afford
to just have a testimony, we must make sure that we are converted :) </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Alma 5:26<span style="background-color: white;"><span class="verse" style="background-position: 0px 0px; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-weight: 700; margin: 0px 1px 0px 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> </span><span style="color: #333333;">And now behold, I say unto you, my brethren, if ye have experienced a </span><span style="color: #333333;">change</span><span style="color: #333333;"> of heart, and if ye have felt to sing the </span><span style="color: #333333;">song</span><span style="color: #333333;"> of redeeming love, I would ask, </span><span style="color: #333333;">can</span><span style="color: #333333;"> ye feel so now?</span></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">ALSO at the Zone Conference, Hna Ashby,
Hna Mera, Hna Bringhurst, and Hna Anazco were all there!! And that was seriously just the coolest thing
ever! Having all those girls that I love
so much there at once!!... So, we took a ā<i>family pictureā </i>of all 5 of us
together and that was such a sweet moment. When I met each of them, they were
brand new to the field, each burning with a desire to work and learn! And now I see them, some almost hitting the
halfway mark in their missions and there they are -- still working hard but now
their burning desire has become a firey testimony of this work and this gospel!
They teach with such power and they are so
special!! I love them so much! <i><span style="color: blue;">(Hopefully Lauren will send the 'family picture' so we can share it here, but in the meantime, I have included the following photos of each of her beloved 'daughter' Hermanas)</span></i></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Ugghhh, I donāt know what else to say
other than <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">I AM JUST SO HAPPY TO BE HERE!!</b>
:) This is a beautiful work, one that brings about the salvation of man and
seals families for eternity. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I know that
God doesnāt just intend to save a few of His children, but rather ALL of His
children who will give heed unto his word and rely upon the merits of Christ! :)
I know that it matters not our circumstances or where we might be.... it is
never too late for the Father. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Itās not
the distance that matters to our Father, but rather, the direction in which we
are facing. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If we look to Him and begin
to take those steps towards him... the distance will begin to disappear... <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Christ doesnāt make up the difference, he IS
the difference!!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Here we are at the Ciber in the bus terminal in Asuncion at 5:30 AM!! On our way to spend more treasured time with the Hermanas in the mission!</div>

This week was such a great learning week! I got to work with 3 of our Hermanas and we also got to watch General Conference!! It was so fantastic!!!!</div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1443964690739_24392" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">

So General Conference.... I could sit here and talk about Conference all day! Every talk had something for me and I could feel so strongly that these men were inspired and instructed to share what they did. I am so grateful for a living prophet and apostles who diligently seek that inspiration to guide us!</div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1443964690739_24390" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">

I loved how they talked about TRUSTING in God, TRUSTING in Jesus Christ and in TRUSTING the spiritual impressions and promptings that come through the Holy Ghost. I loved that when we look to the Lord in ALL things, there we find HAPPINESS, we find love and peace. I loved what Pres Uchtdorf said about how living the gospel DOES NOT need to be complicated! That we were created that we might have JOY. And when we do not find the joy in this gospel, we need to take a step back and SIMPLIFY our discipleship!! :) Because EXHALTATION is our goal, discipleship is our JOURNEY... this gospel works and it DOES bring us joy when we strive to become MORE PERFECTLY centered on the potters wheel. </div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1443964690739_24401" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">

I would strongly encourage each and every one of you to continually go back and study the words which were said these past 2 days, because they are just as true and important today as they were yesterday!! :) And if you didn't get a chance to listen to Conference - you can do it now by following the link below!!</div>

In my divisions, I worked with the Hermana Ross, Hermana Varas, and Hermana Lundberg -- and it was such a great experience!! These sisters taught me so much! I really could see how much the Lord loves all of His missionaries and is so grateful for this time which they dedicate in serving the Lord and showing their love for Him! :)</div>

Hermana Training Leaders. Hna Moreno and
I will be working with the other Hermanas in the mission half the week ā and

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">C didnāt have
that much faith in God, she wasnāt even sure if He existed.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>And if He did, she was very angry and
frustrated with Him, because she had passed through some very hard experiences
in her life and felt like maybe God had abandoned her.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>She would find herself asking, āGod? Where
were you in my suffering? Why did you leave me?ā<o:p></o:p></span></div>

with her about the way to develop faith, and how we can recognize the
Spirit and WHO God really is and His son Jesus Christ... It was such a
beautiful lesson -- the Spirit was definitely the guide.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>At the end, C said that she wants to try. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>She wants to have faith in our Heavenly Father
and that she is ready to feel happy again. She gave the closing prayer, humbly
asking to know and humbly asking to be softened and illuminated that she might
feel the Lords presence and that she might feel of her worth in the Lords
eyes.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>When she finished it
was quiet, and so peaceful.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I asked
her how she felt right then and she said she felt at peace and that it has been
a very long time since she has felt that way. :) She is excited to go forward
in faith and try something new and we are so very excited for her progress! :)<o:p></o:p></span></div>

how in the mission, President McMullin has been sure to take time to share with

comes across my mind as changes are knocking at our door -- is just how amazing
missionary work is, o sea, just how amazing the Lords work is. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Missionaries come and go, but the message
remains the same -- The invitation to come unto Christ through faith,
repentance, baptism, receiving the Holy Ghost and enduring to the end. These
are the requirements to return and enter into the Lordās presence. The fullness
of the gospel of Jesus Christ has been restored through the prophet Joseph
Smith and will not change. Our Father in Heaven will not rest, nor will His
missionaries rest until His message has sounded in every nation to every person
therein. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>

come unto Him. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>And I know that it has
and continues to change and bless my life.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>I know that such blessings and many more are available to anyone who will
accept the invitation o come unto Him. Itās my prayer that we will, every day,
make that conscious choice to follow Christ and serve Him in whatever capacity
we can -- and look for ways to choose to serve him even TODAY!! :) Choose ye
this day whom ye shall serve... because as for me and my house, we will serve
the Lord!! :) <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">Hna Ashby and I
made the goal to talk to every house and every person in our area.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>So we organized a way to go about it and we
went to work with our goal in mind, and I really believe that we are seeing
fruits of that labor!!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>One morning in
particular, we went out and hit the pavement and NOBODY was receiving us -- we
would talk, look for ways to serve, and invite them to church or to learn more
and we just got rejected. yeah, like seriously R-E-J-E-C-T-E-D.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>But, we still had half an hour before lunch,
so we kept working that street and the very last house we knocked was a young
17 year old girl named Cintia.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Before we
even had a chance to say Hi she invited us right in!! :) And as we began to
talk with her, sure enough, like 4 years ago the missionaries visited her and
she loved the lessons!!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>She was
attending church, she had even gone to many baptisms and has many member
friends.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>She wanted to continue
learning, but when the Elders were transferred out, somehow the new ones missed
her and no one ever went back to find her.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>So we get to follow up there!! :D <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">One day this
week, when it was just POURING down rain, we visited Hna Fernandez, she was a
less active member 4 months ago... but now she burns with a firery
testimony even when her family situation is NOT ideal. This was one of those
visits where we set out to teach, but learned so much!!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Her house is humble, so very humble... her
sons are destroyed by drugs and bad influences, she slaves away everyday
looking for ways to make enough money to keep up the medical treatment her
little granddaughter who is in Asuncion fighting cancer... nevertheless.... she
walks forward with a perfect faith in Christ, and such a strong love for
Him.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>When we went to visit her, the rain
was coming down hard, and it was just pouring in through her roof -- our chairs
sat in pools of water and a constant drizzle of rain was falling everywhere and
getting us all wet.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I just donāt even
have words to describe HOW very humble her circumstances are. We felt impressed
that day to talk about the Holy Ghost, his purpose and how we can better
recognize his influence in our day-to-day lives... and as we taught the Spirit
became so very strong and <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Hna Fernandez
began recounting experiences she has had, both big and small, where she felt
the influence of the Holy Ghost. The Spirit came into that room so quickly -
the next thing you know, that cold wet house, puddle soaked chairs, dripping
wet clothes... all of that just went away. It didnāt matter that her
circumstances were humble, in regards to temporal things... because she knew
that she had an abundance of spiritual blessings and that was enough. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>She does not complain. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I donāt even know how to express with words
all that she taught me in that 30 minute visit.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>But I know we learned a lot about the importance of gratitude, real
blessings, and recognizing the Lords hand in all things as we visited Hna
Fernandez.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Sheās such a gift.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">I know, with all
certainty, that the Holy Ghost is such a blessing and that his companionship is
all we could ever want for. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He is a gift
from the Father to comfort, teach and testify to all of the His children, o
sea, to us!! :) I know that as we are baptized into the Lords church we receive
his constant companionship and that as we continue living worthy of his
companionship, we can feel more and more of that special influence in our
lives. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I know that the Spirit touches
all of us in special, personal ways. :) Itās my prayer that we may always try
and recognize those prompting for what they really are, in the moment they come.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>:) <o:p></o:p></span></div>

went to go and visit a girl named Sunilda, she was baptized almost a year ago
and she is awesome! She would come out and do visits with us all the time.
But for the last few weeks, the adversary has been working really hard to
distract and discourage her. Making it seem harder to do those things she
needs to do, especially the commandment of keeping the Sabbath Day holy and getting
to church. And in this fight sheās
battling with the adversary, she had a dream that hit her really hard and I
just wanted to share it with you guys...

she was dreaming that she lived at her old house out on this big ranch in the
middle of no where (itās the place she grew up). In her dream, it was a Sunday and she was
sleeping... She dreamt that I had come with my companion to knock on her door
and bring her to church with us. She
said that she hadnāt heard us and just continued sleeping. In her dream my companion and I had opened
the door and entered into her house only to find her on the couch sleeping...
"Not doing anything productiveā she said. Then she continued "I wasnāt reading my
scriptures, I wasnāt getting ready for church, I wasnāt at church, I wasnāt
praying... I wasnāt dong anything I was supposed to be doing and I felt like
that was a sign to me that I need to get to church, that I need to continue
preparing for the second coming because you never know the hour, or the
moment, that Jesus Christ will come knocking at your door and when your time for
preparation has ended."<o:p></o:p></span></div>

I was all over being sick last week... I thought I could power through it, but,
I think my body needed a day of just rest. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We just kept working, working, and working
some more, so anxious to find anyone and everyone we can teach out here, my
body never caught up. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>So one day, we
went out to work and my bones began to ache and I couldnāt think, walk, I seriously
couldnāt even stand... nothing! <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>My body

our Ward Mission Leader and a bunch of other member families and it has been
really special seeing him progress in the gospel... I know he is going to get
baptized and yesterday in our lesson with him... I saw him, so clearly, with a

ahead of myself... M has changed so much! <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He has always worked on Sundays, so church
attendance was hard for him and he was hesitant to accept a baptismal date. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>But, we just continued teaching, praying,
fasting and working with him... praying that he could accept and embrace the
gospel and prepare to be baptized.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Hna

taught him about the dia de reposo (Sabbath Day) and asked him what he could do
to better keep it holy like we have been commanded? <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>His response was so genius... He said that he
would have to change his work schedule... that he would have to come home every
Sunday so that he could make it to church and partake of the sacrament!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

week, he walked up to his boss and told him that he needs to be home on Sundays
and that he is going to leave on Saturday night to make it back in time!! :) <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>What a huge step for this 19 year-old young

him to pray about his baptismal date, that he might also receive his personal
witness and confirmation that he should be baptized (and we suggested on the
26th of September). <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>And you know what?
He prayed. He prayed a lot. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>And<b> </b><span style="mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;">two</span> weeks ago he told us
"Hermanas, Iāve been praying and Iāve got an answer... I know I need to be
baptized." <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>WHEENNNNN? we asked him,
and he told us that he felt he should be baptized on September 19th instead :)!!
YES!! <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>A whole week early! <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The questions M asks are so inspired, and the
studying he does during the week on his own time, just shows how serious he is
about this step! <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We are so excited for
the 19 to arrive!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He is so ready!! :)<o:p></o:p></span></div>

managed to talk. It really wasnāt pretty. but the words came out and the Spirit
was there and it wasnāt interrupted with fits of coughing ā and thatās what
matters. And after every lesson my voice left again, and I went into those
coughing attacks. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It really is amazing
how the Lord will sustain us all, so that we can fulfill our duties and tasks! :)
I know that our Heavenly Father hears our prayers and that he answers them too!!

<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">I know that our
Heavenly Father loves us and is always there with us. :) He hasnāt ever
forgotten about us and will never forget about us! One of the greatest
witnesses of that is the Book of Mormon. Christ the Lord, lived and ministered
to Godās children in the Middle East, He performed miracles and served in that
place on the Earth as detailed in the Bible... BUT our Heavenly Father is
PERFECT and He does not make mistakes! :) And when his only begotten Son,
having been perfect, crucified, and resurrected, He sent Christ to visit His other
children, my very own ancestors, here, in the Americas!! <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>What a wonderful feeling it is to know that
Christ the Lord came to this land, our land, to teach our family... to teach us!!
:) <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Christ taught here, just like he did
in Jerusalem, he blessed, healed, comforted, as well. He ordained men unto the
various offices of His Church and He showed us the marks on His hands, feet and
on His sides showing us the prophecies of the prophets had been fulfill and
that He loves us.... SO MUCH!! :) The Book of Mormon talks of all of this, and
does it better than I can. What a special gift it is to have the Book of Mormon,
another testament of Jesus Christ, and have the knowledge of Christ coming to the Americas!!
:) I know that He loves us and I know that the Book of Mormon is the word of
God. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I pray that we may all take the
time to open it and learn for ourselves of its divinity!! :)<o:p></o:p></span></div>
