Semana Veintiocho

Adivina que! Esta semana!!!!
¡¡¡Hermana Montero and I got pooped on!!!
Yup.... A stupid little bird decided to do his bussiness right when we were walking beneath.  The poop hit my shoulder and splattered onto the side of Hermana Montero.  Lucky for me, most of it splattered :P Sorry Hermana xD  We were laughing the whole time as we tried to hurry back to the pension to clean ourselves a little bit. But I was laughing so hard that I was on the edge of peeing my pants O_O hahaha It was pretty great!
Luckily we got home without peeing my pants.  We cleaned ourselves up, still laughing the whole time and then left again to go spread the word of the Lord. xD

My fear of getting pooped on by a bird had finally happened to me.... poop.... :(

But that´s okay, it was a great way to get Hermana Montero and I laughing.  I love being with her.  She is absolutely fantastic! I love her so much! She is helping me a ton with my Spanish and hopefully with my accent too..... I don´t want to have the gringo accent.  I am working hard on getting the accent of a latina XD

I have realized precious time is.  And how we need to take the time to love the time that we have.  To look at the good things that we have and to be able to smile and laugh. Life is short, but so precious.  The little things are what matter most.

I have learned a lot something the Spirit and how it speaks to my heart.

I have learned a lot about Jesus Christ and the things that He went through and the pain that He suffered.  I can´t even think to try to comprehend the pain He went through.  But its really interesting to learn about His life and the things that He did for us.
I love the Lord and I know that He is waiting for us to reach up and take a hold of His hand.  He is there wathching us and protecting us.  He wants us to be happy, He wants to help us.

Semana Veintisiete

Estoy en Limay ahora con Hermana Montero!  Ella es muy buena! Me encanta estar acá con ella. :)  Estoy muy agradecida conocerla y tener la oportunidad trabajar con ella.  Ella tiene un espíritu muy fuerte! Y tiene muchas ganas para hacer la obra del Señor!  

I finally have a post office.  so I will be sending things home sooner or later.  :)  But it takes like 3 months for them to get to my house so they will be super super super later than when I send them out.

I love the area of Limay so far and I am excited to work with the members that are here in this area.  They seem great.  I get the oportunity to work in the young womens XD so I will be able to learn the theme! I am so excited! That is something that I have wanted to learn since I had the desire to learn Spanish.  WHICH..... is for ever ago that the desire came.

I love the Lord and I love learning more about the life of Jesus.  I love this Gospel and I know that it can change the lives of everyone for the better.  But we have to willing to follow the words of the Lord.

Semana Veinticinco

Lookie here lookie here.  I´m moving....... :( I am sad to leave behind my home ward here in 
Barrio Progreso
But here comes a whole new page in my mission book, in 
Barrio Limay
I am excited to be able to move and see how life is in another part of Argentina.  But The thing is.... I´m not going too far.  Right now I am like 30 minutes from the mission home.  When I move, I am going to be 15 minutes from the mission home XD How great a move no? hahah No But I am so excited and happy.  I will be missing my home ward, but it will be good for me to have a change.  To meet new people and to see the difference in other wards.

Something that I have learned. I have learned how to keep my cool when someone is cutting me down to.  When someone is trying to chop everything away that I am.  I have learned how to listen, pick out the things that I can change to better myself as a person, and then be able to respond without making them more angry.  I have learned that I don´t need to yell at them to be able to be understood. :P wheeeeee

I have also learned about the power of prayer.  And the ability that God has to comfort His children. :)
If you ever need anything.  Pray and ask Him for it.  He will always help you!!!!

Semana Veinticinco

Yo estaba pensando, que puedo hacer para mejorarme.  Que puedo hacer para ayudar la obra del Señor crecer.  Como puedo ayudar las personas in este área? O en el otro área que capaz me vaya. 

En este momento.  Por esta semana.  Voy a dar oraciones personales solamente por las gracias.  El Señor ya me dio mucho en mi vida y esta semana daré gracias por todo que puedo.

Les quiero mucho! Y espero que todo esté bien con ustedes.  Sé que el Señor siempre esta consigo.  Siempre! Y que si necesita algo, el Señor te ayudará!  Dios te ama! Dios es tu Padre y por eso, Él hará todo que es posible!

Ama el Señor
Ya te ama!

:) SONRISA!!!! XD
