Zone Conference

Dear Family and Friends:

Love you all SO MUCH! 

Not a lot of time to write BUT I just wanted you all to know that conference was great!  I was super nervous right before my companion and I were to speak, but right before President felt inspired to tell a story of a man that in the moment he needed to speak the Lord carried him through and I knew that the Lord told him to say that to give me peace. We taught on Actitude of Gratitude and we spoke about the 10 lepers who were healed and how only one of them returned to thank HIM. And in the mission we should and will show our gratitude through our work. Then we showed the video Because of Him and it all went well. The Lord helped me to be able to speak and capicitar los misioneros en los 2 zonas. We can always be grateful y cualquiera circumstance. The Lord lives I testify of that in the name of Jesus Christ amen.

Have a great week and be grateful!

Love, Hermana Guerrero

Be Happy!

Hey Everyone!

I am okay! Had a wonderful meeting with all the leaders in the mission this past week! We all sat down and listened to instruction from Presidente. He truly is a man called of God. Tomorrow we have our conferencia with him and two of the zones in the mission. Sister Contrersas and I are talking for  20 minutes and we hope all will be okay! We are fasting so we may be able to have the spirit and help our 2 zones. Our theme is on a gratitude of actitude. I love my mission and area. 

In the mission you never feel like you are in a state of comfort Heavenly Father his always asking us to give more and just grow. It is starting to get a little cold so thats been the new thing here! Gosh, it gets so cold at night but you are burning during the day! I love going on intercambios with the sisters here I am so thankful to get to know them and just help them in any way I can. I dont know if I am doing much BUT I am trying my best to just love them and work hard. We have a ton of possibles who can  be baptized in Dec but gotta get them to church!

 We also have a musical concert this saturday!

I am so excited its an activity with our ward and we will be participating. Sorry I dont have much time but I wanted to send an article that is pretty neat. Talks about being happy! We all want to be happy :) so read it!

We are meant to grow

Dear Family and Friends:

Yea, I know that I am nothing; as to my strength I am weak; therefore I will not boast of myself, but Iwill boast of my God, for in his strength I can do all things; yea, behold, many mighty miracles we have wrought in this land, for which we will praise his name forever. 

Alma 26:12

My what a change! I dont even know where to begin, but my heart is full beyond humbled and excited for the work :)

I have transferred and so I am serving in..........ESTADO DE MEXICO! Yep, I am serving out of Pachuca, better yet out of the state of Hidalgo and near Mexico! I dont have another hija but I am serving with Hermana Contreras from Santillo Mexico as Sister Training Leaders! So in a way you can say we have 12 hijas to take care off. I am beyond humbled with this calling from President and I just pray that I can do my part and do what the Lord wants me to do to be able to continue to work in this new area but to also love and help my dear sisters who we are over. 

We are over two zones in the mission and there is a ton of work! Its beautiful but work :) each week we have intercambios with a companionship and each week we also study with a differnt companionship to make sure they are okay and doing their studies right and just help them know that we are there for them :) We also meet with President once a month and then have a huge conference with the zone leaders and teach the things that President wants us to focus on. 

I have so much to learn and my companion is an AMZING missionary, one of the best in the mission and I know I am going to learn A LOT from her! I pray with all my heart that I can do my part and just...be an instrument and do is will! I love this work with all my heart and though I am a little nervous not only do we have to be examples and teach the missionaries here certain things that Presidnet and the church wants but, be examples to the mission. I am humbled but excited to work with the sisters and with the people in this new area.

 It's far from Pachuca but the people are so good to us and SO open to listen to the gospel. We have two baptisms this week! A couple named Thomas and Silvia who got married this past saturdday!!!!! Lots of good work lots of good changes bUT i KNOW, i know, I can do it with the Lord. It's interesting the way the Lord keeps allowing us to have experiences to really grow and ALWAYS depend on HIM. I know He can make weak things become strong. I know He loves me and all of you. I testify that there is nothing greater than this work. I know my Savior lives, loves me, died for me and is going to help me in these changes and help me to be the missionary He wants me to be:) How perfect is His plan for us! To allow us to grow and develop faith :) I love you all so much because you all are my family we all our brothers and sisters of our HEAVENLY FATHER :) I am excited to let you know how things go this week with seeing the sisters this week :) I love you and love this gospel and know that if you need strength or help HE will help you. Just always remember to acknowledge HIM :) Be strong stand firm in what you know to be true :)

Con mucho amor, 

Hermana Guerrero 

prayers are always appreciated ;)

His Plan is Perfect!

HOLA FAMILIA Y AMIGOSSS :) Como están?

Pues yo estoy MUY MUY bien :)

I am so thankful to be on the mission and I absolutely had NO time to write last week but I just want you to know how much I LOVED LOVED LOVED Conference! Wow, what a huge blessing to hear our prophets and leaders of the church. The thought that knowing all around the world members were ready to listen and be spiritually fed. Afterwards I felt so full (lleno) con el espiritu santo and...even now just talking about it makes me feel so blessed to have been able to watch it. This time I actually got to watch it in English because I am serving in a more updated civilized city and the internet works here :). And also we have tons of americanos in my zone so we all were able to go on divisions and watch it in our own language. And my...was it beautiful! I encourage you ALL to go watch it and be spiritually fed and hear things that you need to know to make your life better and happier. I am thankful for our Prophet Thomas S. Monson and I know he truly is a man called of God to help us return to our Father in Heaven and come unto Christ. 

What really struck me was personal revelation that we can truly recieve through God and to please and love God more than the people of the world. That really struck me the most and I pray that I better myself to always worry more about what the Lord thinks than what others in the world think. If He is pleased with what I am doing and who I am becoming, than I am doing what I need to do. Those who know me know how much I just like for everyone to be okay and everyone to feel and think well of me and to be the peacemaker all the time, but I am learning that I am in one way or another going to have differences than other people and I am possibly going to offend somebody with the things I believe, not because I want tooo...you all know me, but because I represent my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and I need to stand strong and will stand strong for what I believe and what I know to be true:),. I need to be more worried about what HE thinks of me and not what everybody else does :). I love it and I am trying to be better and be more Christlike everyday. My testimony has never been more sure in the gospel and in my Savior! Ohh how I love Him with all my heart and with all I have to give. And for this I always want to have faith in Him and His plan for me…

Hermana Guerrero and Hermana Cuc

Speaking about plans...and the will of God...well I HAVE CHANGE!. Yep! We just found out today who has cambios and I am being transferred! I can't believe I felt that it was coming because I have finished training Hermana Cuc and she is definitely ready to train. Lots of people have changes tomorrow and well...we will see! Changes are always super hard because the people here become like family and our recent converts are so dear to me but I know ALL will be okay :). I am so thankful to have worked in Venta Prieta with the assistants who I learned SO much from and I am just so thankful. I will let you know where I go and who will be my new companion :) que raro! y que rapido el tiempo el ma mision. Todavia siento muy muy nueva pero yo se que tengo 8 MESES! 

Well I love this mission! We have three possible baptisms here in the next two weeks and so I hope all will go well and that Hermana Cuc will be okay. We have become one and Presidente told us that he knows its going to be dificult to separate but that its what the Lord wants. I honestly didnt think I could train and better yet have baptisms while training but with the Lord all is possible :) Even breaking some records in the mission was just not something I saw us EVER doing BUT i know it wasnt me. It was the Lord and his help and his confidence in me. I am happy in the mission :) SO happy! Not because it's easy...but because I am truly finding myself and who I really wanted to be all along. This mission is something I will forever be thankful for... forever. I love you all so much and know this church is true. I know it I know it  and feel it stronger each day Ia serve. 

Be strong and have faith in our God. His plan is perfect :)

Hermana Guerrero

I know He Lives!

HOLA FAMILIA Y AMIGOS :)

Can I first start by saying that I LOVE MY MISSION. SO MUCH! I have felt the spirit so strong and honestly have seen milagros here on my mission.

 We had another baptism last week and it was beautiful. Her name is Maria, and she is the mother of our recent convert Yael (I will be sending pictures of them both) and this family is so very special to me. Before I started training, my other companions before helped me a ton and always lead the baptisms and just really took care of everything but when I was called to train Hermana Cuc I not only learned how to teach the lessons but, I now had a person depénding on me to teach and show her how to do everything and it changed me a lot. With having to really give it my all and help the people I am am responsible for here in my area and in the mission I have learned so much. Not just with the language but really how to get things done and just simply go forward with faith.

 This past week we were able to complete our meta again this past week with 52 LESSONS! What a blessing and honor. It's work but I know with the Lord all is possible. I love my mission so much and I just want to say thank you to all of you who helped me to get here. I will never be able to thank you enough. I am so happy and my heart is so so so full and I hope you all know that I am grateful to be a servant of our Lord and represantative de our Salvador y Redentor Jesucristo. Yo testifico que este iglesia es la iglesia verdadera y that we truly do have a living prophet to guide us in these days and I know that God loves us and that is why we have a prophet and have the book of mormon and have this chance and time to know for ourselves if we just do our part and ask God if all of this is true. I have a testimony of this church and the gospel and know that it is TRUE. I have no doubt, I am thankful beyond BELIEF for my covenants I have made through baptism and in the temple...awhh listening to Mormon Tabernacle while writing this ....makes me emotional........but awh...I cant say it enough how much this gospel means to me. I want to stand before God and Jesus Christ and be able to say that I tried my very best to serve Him and represent HIM and do my part. That yes, I am imperfect but I repented and tried my best to help HIS children come unto HIM and know of this true gospel. I still have struggles and challenges and affliction but, I couldn't be happier in the work of my dear God. I know HE loves me and loves you and that we are here in this day to prepare to meet him. I know we lived with Him in the pre existence and that we are here to gain a body and follow HIS son JESUS CHRIST.

 Never lose the faith, pray to our Father in heaven, read the Book of Mormon, go to church to renew your divine sacred covenants and to remember our Savior and be obedient and I promise you I TESTIFY as a representative of Jesus Christ you will find peace joy and happiness. The Lord is my light and I refuse to stop this great dvine work...it is everything and we ALL can do something. SO EXCITED FOR CONFERENCE TO listen to our Prophet and leaders..its like early Christmas! 

I invite you all to invite and bring a friend to watch conference we all have a part to help people know this light that we have. I love you all so much, and thank you for your help that allows me to be here!  Have a wonderful week!

Con mucho amor

It's a privilege!

Dear Family and Friends:                                                 September 15, 2014

I am so happy to be writing to you again.  I can’t believe how fast a week goes by!  It seems like just yesterday.  Even though I have been out for several months now, I still feel pretty new to the mission.  I am enjoying every day but the time does go by so fast!

I love my mission with all my heart!

This week was good.  We had exchanges and I was able to work with Hermana Tellez and I learned a lot from her. In our area Hermana Cuc and I have been falling short of meeting our goal for teaching lessons.  But we prayed and we ended up teaching 12 lessons in one day. We talked about our companionship and I’m sure I will be working much harder with Hermana Cuc with the help of my Heavenly Father.  I am so happy that we were able to meet our goal.

We also saw a miracle this week.  We met a lady who we feel is the most prepared person we have met!  Her name is Guillermina and before we met her, she was attending another ward with her boyfriend when we received the referral from the ward and we visited her this week.  During the first lesson we talked about baptism and then we invited her to follow Jesus Christ and she said “yes, yes, yes!” She said that was her desire, but that she needed to marry her boyfriend.  He is an less-active member of the church and they live together, and they’re attending his brother’s ward. He is encouraging her and aware they need to be married.  We talked to our ward and they are helping us to get them married this week!

Also, we have a baptism of Yael’s mother, her name is Maira and she is very excited! She has good friends in the ward, and we gave lessons at some of the members homes so that she could get to know them.  Also, Brother Yael bore his testimony at Sacrament Meeting and some of his friends had come to the meeting with him.  He spoke of how happy he is being at church and that he wants to prepare himself to serve a mission. He is only 12 years old but it touched my heart to hear him say that.

To serve a mission is something I wanted to do but I felt it would be a great sacrifice.  But, now I don’t’ feel it is a sacrifice at all but a privilege!  I believe it is a privilege for everyone!  What a great blessing it is to be here and to learn and change so much!  I’m not the same person I was before my mission.  I feel I am being perfected in Christ.  I invite everyone, my self included to come unto him and we will all be happy!  I still have much work to do and I know it will take a lifetime! My goal is to continue to focus on my Savior and I know I will see miracles! 

My greatest wish is to never leave my mission and just do the work everyday.  That is what is most important and what brings the most happiness in this life.  Each day I can leave the natural man and become a better person a better daughter and a better missionary. 

It's Mexican Independence Day!

I am so grateful for the love and guidance of  my Mission President and his wife, President and Sister Egbert.  They have changed my life for the better.  I know that my Heavenly Father loves me because he sent me to this mission! 

I hope and pray you all have a wonderful week! 

Love, Hermana Guerrero 

I am growing!

Hermana Guerrero has been sending me her weekly letters to her mission president in spanish lately and I have been having my mother (who speaks spanish) translate them into english.  I hope that we are able to appropriately convey Hermana's experiences to each of you.  I think it is obvious that Hermana Guerrero's experiences as a missionary are truly shaping her into an even more beautiful daughter of God.  She has truly touched my heart as I have read her letters. I hope that you are being touched as you read them as well.



Dear Friends and Family,

I had a great week here in Venta Prieta!  I'm enjoying my mission more and more every day!
This week went very well, but very different.  We got a new District Leader named Elder Vique and he has helped me so much already!  I had told him that I wanted to give 40 lessons in a week, which I wondered if it was possible. I had never set that goal for myself before.  I'd like to share with you a wonderful experience I had this week.

I've been praying for my testimony to grow because I want to know that I am continually progressing.  So, we went out to teach a couple that we found and the man wanted to hear our message, but his wife was not interested at all.  So, we taught the man and we were very respectful to his wife as well.  It was the first time I taught the First Vision and I felt the Spirit very strong.  But, after I finished the lady began to preach to us and to tell us that the church was not the true church and that hopefully someday we could go to her church and hear her prophet.  At that very moment I had a firm witness inside that people may say whatever they may about the gospel and Joseph Smith and Thomas S. Monson and the Book of Mormon to disprove it,  but it does not destroy my testimony of what I know is true!  And I still feel a great love for her.  It was a very good experience for me.  I still gave the first lesson and was corrected by my companion, and I felt so embarrassed and began to cry.  I know I will still make mistakes on my mission, but I am happy anyway so, I'm okay.

I know the Lord is mindful of me and is helping me in ways I would have never imagined.  We have a lot of hope for the people here in this area, and I am happy and hopeful and will continue to do the will of my Heavenly Father so that he can mold me into what he wants me to be.

 Once we give our will over to him, he then has clay to work with.  I want to be what he wants me to be.  I just love this work! And I'm so very happy!  Have a wonderful week!

Love,
Hermana Guerrero

We eat like this pretty much daily!  I am blessed!

I'm becoming more and more mexican!!

With God all things are possible!

September 1, 2014

What a week!!  I don’t even know where to begin because so much happened this past week!  

First of all, we had our first baptism in Venta Prienta and it was beautiful!  I am so thankful that the Elders and members helped me that day because it was a crazy day!  I could see all of the opposition, that was trying to stand in our way, but we saw many miracles, and Heavenly Father blessed us to do His will for His Son and for our investigator Yael.

At first Yael’s mother did not want him to be baptized, but her heart was softened and now she wants to be baptized as well!  The members of our Ward are helping us and it is great!  I know my companion was so ecstatic as well, because it was an exciting day and it was beautiful!

This past week the AP’s (assistants to the president) invited us to try and teach 50 lessons and I am so pleased to say that we did it!  We did it with the help of Heavenly Father and the members along with a lot of hard work!  It was so neat to see!  Actually on the last day we still had 8 lessons left to teach and we had the baptism to worry about and I was so focused on that that in my mind I was thinking, well, we might not be able to meet that goal, but at least we have this baptism for Yael which is more important.  But during my prayer I felt, “we can do this with Heavenly Father’s help” and I feel that all of our problems reguarding that day were all blessings to help us accomplish what we needed to do!  I can’t find the words to express how happy we are!  

I am so humbled and filled with gratitude.  

I am so very happy here and trying to do better and better everyday.  I feel that at this time I am growing more and more each and every day.  And I am trying to get into a routine as a companionship so that things will run smoothly. I love it!

As far as the language goes, I am trying to be more humble with my spanish.  I know I am not perfect, but everytime I recieve corrections I know I need to listen because it is all part of my progression as a missionary.

But, after this week, I feel like we can do anything with the Lord’s help!  So, I am ready to continue to work hard and to grow more and more.  

Thank you for your love and support for me!  I love my mission!  Have a great week!

Love, 

Hermana Guerrero

I LOVE MY MISSION!!

Dear Friends,

I am doing so so wonderful and I am just so so so happy in this gospel. The thought of leaving this wonderful mission makes me depressed! So, I don't think about it. But, good thing I still have a year! I am so so so happy here it is just...everything to me! I cant believe how far away I was from this light and I thought I had it before but it just continues to grow.  I was able to talk to Presidente because well...I was very imperfect and with the knowledge i have gained here...wow it is beautifu!  My Presidente really is a man called of God and I really feel that he is my Dad! He calls us his children and He is so good to us! I know God loves me by blessing me with the Mission President I have and by being able to just lay out everything and tell him everything I feel and he still has so much confidence in me to be a wonderful missionary.  I know if I can do all he expects of me to do, I will be who the Lord wants me to be.

It is interesting because I thought I was here trying to give back but even then Heavenly Father continues to give back so much more than I am  trying to give. In reality a mission isn't a sacrificio but a privilege and I am forever grateful! I am in love with missionary work!

Invite the missionaries over and go on visits with them!

 My companion and I are the first missionaries to open up Venta Prieta area and had 40 lessons this past week so, that has been wonderful!

Guess what? I'm a MOM!

HOLA :) 

Hello everyone this past week has been pretty life changing! It has been absolutely amazing and a lot of new changes have happened!

First off...IM A MOM :))) I have my first hija and her name is Hermana Cuc. For those who dont understand what I mean, in the mission world you become a "Mama" or "Papa" when you are called to train! And my sweet companion who has been here for a week (woot woot!) is from Guatemalaaaaa :) She is the sweetest cutest little thing and it has been a lot of fun. A huge responsibilty to train especially because I am opening a new area with her. But even so, it has been a lot of fun. It also has really forced me to speak all that I can because if I dont nobody will! I am learning a ton and I still cant believe I am training but the Lord and Presidente of our mission all have mucho confianza en mi and I am just very grateful to serve. It is everything to me and I have and still am falling more and more in love with the work. It is the greatest work ever and it is the most important. I still have so much to learn but I am loving this spiritual adventure.

It is so cute, everything I do my comapnion does and repeats and it just makes me want to always be the best example and she has such a very strong story about how she came on a mission. She is actually 25 but looks more like 16 but anyways she is the only member in her family and she is a family of 9. Her parents didn't approve of her going on a mission but she is here and she had a special leader and friend help´her get to where she is today. I can relate to her, the gratitude of great leaders in the church. It is beautiful. She is a little shy but I am getting her out of her shell and going to train her to be her very best becauase she is amazing. I am thankful to be here in my new area, Venta Prieta! It is beautiful and reminds me a lot of Southern California! Except there aren't any beaches but hey, maybe thats a good thing hehehe :) I am thankful to be here and to learn so much and to help the people here. 

We had absolutely no people to teach the first day because the area was so stinkin new BUT we contacted so many people and now we have people to teach and help and serve! We also have a lot of work to do in the ward as well being that a lot are inactive right now but are ready to work. Also cool fact: we have Presidente and his wife in our area and so that is super super cool! Y we have the assistents to Presidente as well. Lots of work and we are ready! I hoenstly think that training is one of the hardest but most joyful things to do! The people are very kind here, some of the other religions who want to argue aren't BUT we just love them anyway and well that gets them more upset, but hey, we are representatives of Christ how can we NOT LOVE ALL!!!!

We have a lot of work to do in this area being that it is new for us but I am so excited! Hermana also speaks another dialect from Guatemala so, I am going to be learning some of that too! How cool! The one thing I really learned this past week is that the Lord will always guide us and give us the strength we need to do the tasks he wants us to do. At times we think how? But He always provides the way and lifts the burden HE TRULY DOES. I have felt it and still feel it. He never commands or asks something of us that we can't do:) I know without a doubt that this is the true church and that through sincere heartful prayer and scripture study we will be given strength spiritually and physically to do all that we need to. I am thankful for this calling and to be here and serve the people and family of Lehi. God loves you all and so do I! if you need anything just email me and I am here :) I leave this email with my testimony that Lord is true and we are in HIS work and in the last days. Give it your all and serve Him and others. I love you all! Lets have a great week! 

Con muchor amor

Hello Family and Friends!

So. sorry I havent emailed in a Little bit, time is crazy and honestly we have been trying to make it to all our appointments that sometimes internet time has been sacrificed, also I broke a door last week so that took some time as well.

But wow, this past week was absolutely amazing!  I cant even put it all into words, but to summarize it ,we had entrevistas con our Presidente of the mission and also had another baptism of one of our investigators named Carlos. It was really special!

 Cool fact, we live on the same street as our assistents to Presidente and so last night they came to our house to drop off the clothes we need for our investigadores baptisms this month and so while talking to them…because they know everything, we were told that all trhee of us are being transferred and moving to DIFFERENT AREAS! Que que que?! I have LOVED my cycle here in Villas de Pachuca and am so thankful for the opportunity I had to be able to not only serve in this area but be with my companions. I have honestly learned so so very much and am truly so thankful.

 Every day I am learning something new and every day my love for this work just grows and grows and sometimes I cant handle it. Hey, is that cheesy? Well, if so that is okay because there honestly is no where else I would rather be than serving the Lord!

 We get 3 americanas tonight anmd I am so excited to greet them and just get to know them and help them out a little bit hehe, if they ware freaking out. So, I have cambios and might be training which is a little nerve racking but I am just full of animo to serve and do this work! I also will be actually staying in the same house just now be serving in our area. Which this area is beautiful! I am excited because while we were walking and such throughout our time here, I have contacted some people and so I have some references and the assistensts de president are in the same area so I know they will be helping me a lot and I am excited to be in the same barrio as them because they are super awesome! 

This past week I had a really beautiful experience and recognition of the atonement of our Savior Jesus Christ and really felt the power of the atonement in my life. I am so imperfect, I mean so imperfect! but, with the atonement I can still be whole and am still given a chance to be better and I just want to tell you with all my heart that we can always feel better through the atonement and that we should use it! That is why Jesus cristo is center to the plan, to the gospel, to EVERYTHING! He made the way for us and, without Him we are nothing, I am for sure nothing. How humbled I am to be a representative of Him and to feel his atoning sacrifice in my life. The burden of our sins can be made light. We just have to go to Him. The burden of our afflictions can be rough, but again we can go to HIM and be happy and find and have the joy in this life that is meant to be ours.

 This week was absolutely beautiful! and I am thankful to know this gospel and for the people who have helped me to be exactly where I am today. I love this work and my mission with all my heart! I am happy and whole and I know it is because of this gospel! Till next week! I love you all and remember change is good! Tomorrow I will find out who my companion is…awhhhhhhh!!!! 

Love you all and this gospel and my savior and heavenly father so much! Have a wonderful week!

With much love,

Hermana Guerrero

Hello Everyone!

 I hope you all are doing well and feeling the blessings of the Lord because there are so many things to be thankful for!

 I am full of gratitude and hope you know how grateful I am to be here in Mexico serving our Heavenly Father and helping the people here find true happiness and feel and see the love of God in to their lives.

 We have a ton a work each day. Presidente of our mission not only has been inspired that in our mission we should teach 40 lessons to members of the church each week to our investiagatores but that we are to contact 10 new people each day and lead the promise that we will find investigatores who have been ready to hear of this great message and will be baptized! So, we are contacting and teaching a lot! We haven't reached to 40 yet but we are getting there. 

We have 5 baptisms set for this month and we are absolutely thrilled and so happy for them. It is such a testimony to me to serve the Lord and serve the people here. Seeing the joy in their eyes and their excitement and dedication to get baptized is beautiful.

 Each week we get a letter from the President of our mission and his message this week really did a lot for me. It was about our own conversion and always making sure we have a strong conversion that even with all the trials and challenges and problems in our life, we will be strong in the gospel and not lose faith. We read the story about the 40 luchadores and it was beautiful, it gives two messages to me. One, being the example at all times and in all things, and two being so converted that if we were to have to put our lives down for the Lord we would do it. I would like to think if being on my mission and serving the Lord with all my heart required my life, I would be strong in my faith and do whatever I would need to in the work of the Lord. Everyday, every choice you make either keeps you on the path to eternal life and happiness or takes you away from what's most precious and important. We all have a purpose in life and everyday we are more converted or less. I remember a leader once told me that we never are done doing all we can, we either continue to grow forward with our faith or start to go backwards. We either are more convereted or less and being here on a mission I have realized how much my soul needs to be nourished through the spiritual things on life. I am thankful to be here and really figure out what things are most important! I love you all and hope you are doing well! God is real and the gospel of Jesus Chriust is the way we can have happiness in our lives. Doesn't remove the trails BUT it brings peace and joy in no other way! 

Tenga buen semana y know les quiero MUCHISIMO!

Futbol, Futbol, Futbol!!

FUTBOL FUTBOL Y FUTBOL OH MY!

Well, let me tell you alll...MEXICO IS CRAZY ABOUT FUTBOL! Theres actually a game going on RIGHT NOW and the tv's are on and people are really excited haha it is funny! So yep all the futbol teams around the world are playing each other and Mexico is doing good I guess! Last week we even had a member forget that she was feeding us because she was watching the game! So guess what she did? She took us to a pizza place where everyone was watching the game tambien! It was pretty funny! Mexico was playing Brazil and I guess Brazil is really good but they tied and I didn't watch it all but I did look when everybody started screaming hahaha! Its intense! Everywhere I go, something connects to futbol (soccer) and its pretty funny so that is something I have been loving, the culture is just crazy about futbol! 

Aside from the futbol this week was crazy intense also with the great work that we are doing. President de nuestro mision has set a goal for us to contact ten people a day and with that we always have a new person to teach each day, sometimes its interesting because some people just really dont want to talk to us but we just love them anyway and offer service, seriously I love it. And I have a testimony that sharing the gospel with EVERYONE is important because yes, sometimes people don't want to listen but other times people are just ready, there was a young man walking by and the spirit told me that I needed to talk to him and so with his groceries and everything I yelled as he was walking away "disculpe!! hola! Somos misioneras de la iglesia de jesuscristo de los santos de los ultimos dias" and continued with sharing him the reason we are here and that we would love to share our message with him and his family, and at first he just had a lot of qquestions and I didnt understand all but we answered them the best we could (blessing of being in a trio) and we invited him to church, took his info and told him to have a great day! My companions didn't feel that he would go but i did and guess what? HE DID! it was so awesome and he is really interested and we gave him the book of mormon and we have another cita with him today at 6! Who knows where it will go but I know that all deserve and that even if some aren't ready right now we are starting the seed and i have really been loving getting to know all the people here:) They are so sweet and loving and our ward is just super powerful and rock solid, they all love missionary work and we had an activity this past wednesday where we all invited people in the roads tro tour the church and listen to the youth and missionaries for a couple of minutes and we got to meet so many different peoiple and got a ton of refernces! So theres tons of work and I am so ready and excited to do it!

 I love serving our Lord and I love learning, I dont know a lot but I am learning something new everyday and I still use singing as a way to teach because well, i can actually read and say the words corerectly from the hyms i love it! 

I am starting to really really feel the love that our Heavaenly Father has for the people here, and I am so humbled by the calling I have to be an instrument in his hands to show the love he has for his children here. We have a very special investigator named maria del sol and she actually planned her date to get baptized this past week it was so special but anyways she went to church with us but had to leave early because she needed to  work because her family had no food. Hearing that broke my heart and I just wanted to help her, we all did. And so our Bishop told us to go get her groceries and gave us money so her kids and she could have food to eat, we bought groceries surprised with the bags and she immediately started sobbing, she just was so grateful and couldn't thank us and the Lord enough, but in reality I leanred that I didnt do anything it was the Lord just using us to show her, Maria del Sol how much he truly loves her, we had a really sprituual experience and yesterday was probably one the most special days to me, to just serve someone else and forget myself. There's something powerful in doing the Lords work and serving His chiñldren. I am so thankful and I hope you all take the opportunity to serve when you can and have the chance to :) 

This work is so beautiful and I am constantly humbled and grateful that the Lord has enough confidence in me to trust me to serve and share this messsage :) I love you and love this work and feel your love and the love of our Heavenly Father and Savior ;) The church is true and I couldn't be happier :) 

tenga buen DIAAAA!° 

CON MUCHO AMOR

hermana guerrero :)

Villas De Pachuca

Holllllaaaaa!!

 Let me say first off FELIZ DIA to the Padres all around the world! I am thankful for Dads! I hope it was a good day for you all and your family :)

 Okay..now to talk about changes.....Lots and lots of changes! Ya ready!? Well first off, yep (sadly) I was taken from my little town Guerrero but its okay I have ANIMO and now I am now serving in............VILLAS DE PACHUCA!!! It is way different and very city like but I love it and I have....TWO COMPANIONS! Yep! I am serving with Hermana Mlenyk from Arizona and Hermana Nunez from Argentina!!!! Not going to lie, being called into a trio from Presidente was NOT what I was expecting at all but I have honestly been loving it so much! We work so hard and our area has SO SO SO much work to do! And we have such a strong powerfull barrio! They are all about the work and the members are so willing to come and help and do anything we need! And me and my hermanas just want to work work work!

 Villas de Pachuca is super close to everything and it has been a little bit of a transiton for me...but a GOOD one! I am learning so much and I know that the Lord has a plan because well, I know that I am supposed to be here. There aren't any mountains and its never quiet in the night like Guerrero and people use cars instead of horses hahaha but I love it. To me it is a little similar to San Francisco! My health is a lot better and I am very thankful for that! I do miss Guerrero but I know one day I am going to return so its okay! Still bitter sweet but change is always good, transfers always just give a boost of energy to start and keep working! The people are so good to us, some of the other religions dont really like to hear us or talk to us but hey, I am just going to LOVE them anyway and a person can only deny love and kindness for so long so mwhahah!!! 

Mi hermanas y yo have been going hard and have a baptism set up for every week next month! We have faith and have fasted that the people can be ready and willing to make such a beautiful covenant with the Lord and be baptized and follow HIM :) Because realy HE is the way!  This gospel is the way to be truly happy and I am just so full of joy! Of cousre I struggle with..well everything that pertains to talking but I have just been loving this work and I will reach my 4 months tomorrow! WHAT?! I feel that time is going faster than I am learning everything but that is all part of the process and I know and I have faith that my weeknesses will be made strong through the Lord! The work is hard but very very very FUN! And since I am now in a city I can send letters so be ready for the letters that I have been wiating to send! Yay!

 I Heard the ward bounderies were changed in our stake! Crazy! But hey, the Lord has a plan and TRUST IN HIM :) He is all knowing and is loving and ONLY wants the best so hey, that must be nice to know that He is just giving us all opportunities where we can grow the most and be as happy as we can! I love you all and I love the gosepl with EVERYTHING that I have! We are going to work hard this week and I am excited! TRUST ME! Change is hard but it is good. I Sometimes it takes time before you can see the blessings and see how the Lord wanted the best for you, BUT I know that God loves us and that if we not only perservere but perservere with FAITH we will be happy, receive the blessings God wants to give us and have happy lives. It is why the gospel is to perservere until the end, because we are constanlty suppose to be growing :)

 I love you all and I hope you all have a great week and know that God loves you!
