Write It In Your Mind To Understand It In Your Heart

 Well sorry for the skip in a week we had a pretty busy P-day last week! Anyways things are super awesome but man last week was long haha. Every day we were struggling to find a schedule that worked and we think we may have something but honestly it's still not super fijado (fixed). Entonces, I'm grateful for the opportunity to stay busy but I also wish I could keep a consistent schedule.


So a lot has happened in the last two weeks so I will do my best to explain it all! Soooo last week (week 2 in the area) we really tried to find people and ended up getting 32 lessons but nobody on date. Honestly I'm not upset about that just because there is a lot of stuff going on and there is a lot of work to do so people will come eventually. The next week (week 3) we had a Zone Conference through Zoom with Elder Walter Gonzalez and his wife and it was awesome!!! They extended the invitation to try new things and see how it goes in the next few days sooooo... time to get creative haha. We also got challenged go open our mouths wherever we go which is going to help us to expand our options. I wish i could explain all of Zone Conference but that would make this email huge. 

Anyways, we also got new updated COVID-19 guidelines!!!!!! They aren't much different but we are now allowed to do meetings with members in their house for 15-20 minutes our backyard meetings so I finally get to see what our members look like!!! We do church every sunday but we give up our seats to the members. Sometimes i wish it was like a video game and everyone had their name floating above their heads haha! 

 So in lieu of Zone Conference, I decided to title this email using a quote from it. The point of the quote is to make sure that we are not just reading and moving on but that we truely understand the meaning of it. It allows us as missionaries to be able to better understand what we are teaching to also be able to relate personal experiences to the principles we want to get across. 2 Nephi 33:10 talks about the importance of not only believing in Christ but believing in his word and if we believe in his word, we can recieve the blessings that we need.

I hope everything is going well and that everyone is safe!!!
