Wow I can't believe that this week has already come and gone by!! It has definitely been a week of a lot of growth! I have spent a lot of time on my knees! And really I have learned so much! My new comp. se llama Hna chicaiza she is from Columbia she is really great! Definitely a change but really it has helped me grow so much! Really this week I feel like I am a whole different person! But it is so good! This week I have been in charge of everything because my comp doesn't know anything about this area... but through hard things we are really able to learn and grow so much! The time that has been spent on my knees has been well worth it! Because through my prayers I have been given the strength to move on and really focus on the work! With hna pari it was easy to kind of just lay back and follow her guide because really I have found out this week that I was given the worlds best trainer.. but anyways this week I have learned that we must follow the spirit and we WILL be given answer of what to do!! Really it was so great so many lessons this week I have been guided to say things and I don't know where my Spanish came from but it would just flow!! So many times we would go into a lesson wanting to teach something and we would completely change!! I cannot thank my Heavenly Father enough for the help that I have been given this week!!
My favorite part of this week was a lesson that we had with one of our invest. se llama Maria y Rene that are great but haven't been attending church so we decided to teach them about the Sabbath day and I was super hard they believe so much in the bible and I was so so so so so scared!! But we explained to them and they completely understood and they are going to come with us this week to general conference!! I am super excited and when Maria was praying she said in her prayer "please bless us as we are changing our path in life with our religion!!!!!!!"" it was the best thing in the whole world we going to to put there bauptism date 27 de abril!! It will be so great and I just know that really it will all work out!! I am so happy and we have been talking with the dad of our last bauptism and he is progressing well!! He needs to have a little bit more of a desire but really he is so great! And when we bauptism him they want to prepare to go to the temple to be sealed!!! I am so excited!! I just have this fire right now that I want every single person to know about this gospel!! Our mission has been focusing on talking to everyone so every person that we cross in the streets we talk with them for like 3 minutes and give them a pass-along card and really it has been good for me!! I had so much fear to talk with the people in the streets but now i just want to talk with everyone!! Really it is so good! We never know who we are going to help we just pray that the Lord will put them in our path so when we are talking with everyone we have a better chance of finding them!! Really I love serving, I have changed so much this week and grown so much!! It has been a really hard week for my but really I wouldn't change it for the world because I have learned so much!!
Yesterday I was talking with the zone leader and we where talking for like 4 minutes and he said something like Hna Chicaiza how is your new comp.. and I said elder you are talking with Hna Griffiths and he was shocked! He said that I have learned so much and that he is amazed at how fast i have been at it... it was really nice!! It made me feel really good about my Spanish!! Haha I live in an English free world now!! I live with 3 latinas! Haha but it is super good because I have grown a lot!!
Well I can't believe that it really has been another week in the field!! I am so grateful for the chance that I have to serve. I love serving so much really it has helped me grow so much!! Thank you all for all of the help and words of advise!! I will talk with you all soon!!
Hermana Griffiths!!!
