This week we had zone conference! It was great. Since we have a legit church building everyone came here and its always fun having 8 hermanas over in our piso! It was such a great zone conference and I feel like I got know President and Hermana Pack a lot better. They are awesome! Just so much fun, spiritual and great leaders, but just really cool people!
This week I played fútbol in my rainboots.
Also our fridge is not fixed yet but someone came to check it out so yay.. Probably one more week! I've started just talking to people about food from their country. Know someone's food and you know their heart.
My comp actually got sick this week so I had my first, figure out what to do with myself while she sleeps for six hours, day. it was not bad. I've never read the scriptures more in one day. But things are going well. And I'm pretty sure she's all good now.
Thanks to some hard work we met several new people this week to start teaching. We actually had a referral.!!! , Marta (that never happens) and she is definitely being prepared to hear the message of the restoration. She is in a point where she really can feel the power and healing that comes through Jesus Christ. It was incredibly humbling to offer that healing to someone who needed it so much. It is amazing to me how much just the hope of change through Christ can change a life.
We are excited to keep working with her and sharing the good news!
This week we had some intercambios and somehow me and the other newest missionary in the zone were put together! I LOVED IT! It was so fun to see just how much I actually have grown and that with a little help of the spirit we really are perfectly capable of doing whatever we need! It was so fun and we were able to teach a great lesson!
Not much else happened between zone conference and sickness that was my week, but man. I've just been thinking so much about the message of the restoration. Either Joseph Smith was a prophet of God or he wasn't. And if he was then the very kingdom of God established on the earth through Jesus Christ is on the Earth today and we are invited to join in and be saved! All we have to do to know is read the book of Mormon and ask!
Well I've read the book of Mormon! And I've asked... And it's true!
Once we put in perspective the reality of the restoration of the gospel of Jesus christ, we can clearly put our own life in perspective. There is nothing more important than learning this for yourself!
Love you all

1. Zone Conference
2. Haha I'm the 'youngest' missionary in the zone.
3. Haha we were doing some contacting practices with the district and my companion is practically the theater major of the year, most animated person ever, she was pretending to be an old woman (cuz there is soooooo many old people here) and I'm like screaming about how the gospel blessed families..
We had a lot of time in the piso this week, can you tell?
