My New Companion!!

Holaaaa!! Cómo ha estado?? Espero super bien!! Hi!! How have you been?? I hope really well!! It's been a superrrrrrr long time since I last talked to all of you, so I think it's about time that I share all of my new adventures!! 


As you heard from my last email, I have a new companion!! His name is Elder Buenfil, and he is amazing!! He is an excellent missionary and an amazing friend. I am so lucky to be his first companion in the field!! That's right, I'm a trainer!! And with ‘great power’ comes great responsibility. Haha!! It's crazy to think that I was, not too long ago, walking in the same shoes as this elder. 


I was unsure of what to do, where to go, nervous, all that stuff, but I'm so grateful for the example of my trainers, Elder Garcia and Elder Anrubio. They helped me so much, and helped me recognize the importance of every missionary in the field. My new companion has a far from perfect trainer, but I'm super grateful to know that he is doing well, feels good and is building his faith in God!!


And that's pretty much it... haha!! So I guess I'll share a scripture with you!! One scripture that I love is found in the book of Mormón, another testament of Jesus Christ. It's found in Ether chapter 2:25. About half way through the verse is a sentence that I love, it says, "...ye cannot cross this great deep save I prepare you against the waves of the sea." When I read this scripture, it reminds me of how important it is to recognize, that our temporary trials are for our benefit. They are here to help us, because without the small things, great things cannot come to pass.


This has been a great week and I can't wait for another!! Have an amazing week but don't have too much fun, without me!!

A New Companion!!

Buenos diássss!!!

Man this week has been pretty slow to be honest, but its’ nice to have a day off!!


There isn’t to much going on here, other than... I’m training a new missionary this next cycle!! I’m not sure what his name is, what he looks like or where he is from. All I know is that Elder Luna is off to another area and I’m staying here to train!! Woot woot!! A little nervous to be honest, but of course, I know that, "I can do all things through Christ who strengtheneth me"!!


Hmmmm what else has been going on?… I learned how to cut my own hair... learning... I’m learning... haha!! 


We also extended a baptismal date to one of our friends we are teaching. I’m not sure if I’ve already mentioned him... but hey, nothing’s wrong with reminders!!


This email was pretty stinkin’ short, but it’s something!! I’m doing really well and I’m super excited to train a new elder!! It’s going to be a super exciting cycle, and I'll tell you allllll about my new companion next week!! 


Okie dokie, have an amazing week, but don't have tooo much fun without me!!!
