Another week down!! -Feb 27


HOLA AMIGOS Y MI FAMILIA!!!

Well this Hjek has been great! My companion and I have really been
focusing Only on the work and what the Lord wants us to do and it
really has payed off we have had a lot of éxito ( success) this week!
Oh and we have our 2nd bautismo this coming week! I am so excited!
Because it is the daughter of a super inactive person! She was going
to a different church and she is a returned missionary! She had been
inactive for like 15 years! But the other missionaries in our area
found her one day and we have been teaching her! And we are bautizing
both of her daughters this week one of them is 8 so it is a bautism
for the Ward and the other is 10 so it is a bautism for us! Which is
is exciting! The other day we were in a lesson with them and I was
talking about how the spirit can help us with all things in our lives
and that we a gran privilegio to have it with us at all time after we
are bautized! I was talking about how much this gift has helped in
during my mission to be able to talk with the people and that they can
understand what I am saying and she asked me how many months I have in
my mission and when I told her that I only have been here for 4 months
she was shocked and said that my castellano is super good and that she
can understand all that I am saying! Which is great and it made me
feel really good! This family is great! Really they have changed so
much in the last 4 weeks! And it really is an Amazing thing to see! It
is really great to be able to convert people to the gospel but it
really is Amazing to reactivate! I love working with the less active
people here because they are the key to our success in this work!

Yesterday I was sitting in sacrament meeting with Carlos! He is the
menos activo that we have been activating and he is now passing the
sacrament!!!! But he was really honest with me and was asking me for
a lot of advise because he was talking about how hard it is to change
right now! And he has changed so much and that a lot of the time it is
really hard and all of the sudden I was talking with him is almost
perfect castellano and I really have no idea what I said! Haha my
companion asked me after what we where talking about and all I could
say was that I had no idea but I know that it was the spirit that was
talking with him! It really is such a privilegio I can't remember the
word in English... to be the Lord's month peice! To be able
to see the change in so many people!

This week also I have learned so much about how we are in the right
place in the right area with the right people and in the right time
only because this is the work of the Lord! I LOVE MY CAMPÑERA! She is
Amazing and she helps me so much! Haha the first weeks were hard
because I didn't understand her and she is latino haha so everything is
different but now I really love her so much! We have so much fun
together! We are always playing little jokes on the other sisters and
it is so great! Because we have really been able to click and just
work so well! She is so great at helping feel the love of God and I
know that she wants me to be the best missionary out there! This week
we were talking to Carlos and we were talking to him about just
everything.. haha and he asked me why we thing that we stayed in this
area together for another transfer and we said we have no idea and he
told us that he know that we are here to help him and his friend Alex
come back to Christ and that he knew that we weren't going to get
transfered because we have the ability to help them both change! It was
a really cool thing! And really I have grown to love the people here!
I LOVE AGRENGINA!! Really I know that this is were I need to be! The
other day I was talking with Hermana Tew and she was talking about her
home and everything and all I could say was that I really don't think
about my home and that it feels like a dream.  That I have been here my
whole life! I don't want you all to think that I don't miss you but
really I have been so blessed to be able to just block it out of my
mind and focus on the work and nothing else! I am so blessed to be
here and I never want to think about leaving! I love serving the
Lord! It is the best thing that I have ever chosen to do! I love
working everyday until I am so tired that all I want to do is sleep. I
love being able to wake up every morning and just being so tired but
looking forward to such an amazing day of teaching! I love this gospel
and I know that it is true with every fiber of my being! The Book of
Mormon is the words of God! And really it can help us not only
spiritually but physically! And it really can answer any questions
that we have! Thank you all so much for your support! I am so blessed
to have each and everyone of you in my life!!

I am sorry that this letter is short but there wasn't a ciber open and
so we have been racing to find one and then of course the internet is
super slow and doesn't work!! Also sorry that I can't write you all back
that have written me this week!

Un abrazo, le amo y ore cada dia por ustedes!!

Hermana Griffiths!!:)
