Thank you for writing, it made me smile a lot! I was going to write this letter in Spanish, but then I thought about it a little bit more and I dont want you to have to go to goodle to read what I have written. :P Te amo! :) jajajaja I am so happy to hear that you are still reading the Book of Mormon, one day we will have to read together! And share the things that we have learned and the things that pop out to you. :)
Vamos a practicar español, cuando estè yo en casa, bueno?
We are going to practice Spanish when I am at home alright? :)
I love you so much!!!! I hope you have a wonderful Christmas!
TE AMO!!!!
MAMA
First, I love you so much! I dont think that I can say that enough to express how much I really do love you and am so happy that God made you my mother! :)
I want to tell you too, that I also have a huge testimony of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ! I have had a whole year and a little bit more to be able to get to know Him and become even closer to Him. I have seen Him work many miracles, not only in the life of others, but also in my own life. He has carried me when I didnt have the strength to continue on. He is my friend, my brother, and my Redeemer. I know that with Him I can have the strength I need to carry on. I will be able to make it back to my Father above.
I will do everything in my power to serve Him for the rest of my life. :)
I know that He lives and that this is the time and place to prepare oursevles to be able to see Him and live with Him and the Father again.
I love my Father in Heaven and the wonderful plan He has given us. And I love His son Jesus Christ!
TE AMO MAMA!!!!!

Dont worry about if it´s typed or not. Makes me happy to simply know that you took the time to write me :)
I love your testimony Jsuten, its absolutely beautiful! You dont need to be afraid toshare it with other people!
I al so know that there is a God, He is our Father in Heaven, and He wants us to be able to make it back home with Him. He made this plan, a plan absolutely perfect! so that we can have the ability to make it home!
That is why Jesus came, why He gave up His life. For each and everyone of us. Jesus is YOUR older brotehr and He loves YOU just like your Heavenly FAther. They are always there for you! I believe and know that we are here on this earth to be happy. 2 Nephi 2:25
Justen God loves you! YOU are HIS son and He will always be there to help you. :)
I want to challenge you to write your full testimony! After you can send it to me, or keep it until I get home in Febrero! :) Bueno?

And watch the video, even if you have already seen it. Having the thought of someone that needs to see this video. Share it with that person! Being non-member, less active, or active whoever! But share it with someone and challenge them to do the same! The whole world needs to be able to see this video! :)
