I love this work!


Hollllaaaa mi familia y amigos!!!! Buenos Tardes!!

It is nice to be here writing an email to you! So many things happen each week that it makes writing these emails a little hard because there simply isn't enough time to tell you about all the amazing things that are going on but even then I am so happy that I get email! 

First off, there isnt much snow so I havent been freezing and I am pretty warm with just a coat on. So dont worry I am safe and I am just really taken care of here. It is funny because I remeber when driving I would honk and wave to the missionaries and now people are doing that to me! Its a little crazy, because I can't believe I am already here. We are treated so well here and I really feel your love, support and prayers. So dont worry Mom I am doing great!!! I know I keep saying that, but it is so true. Thanks for your letters and love to me! 

Okay so update from last saturday......Elder Holland came to our devotional on Sunday with his family and it was SO amazing and the spirit was so strong and I cant believe I..I got to be there! He mainly just introduced his son, who was the speaker and it was really neat because we were able to see another side of him. President Holland gave this wonderful talk on Joseph Smith and the choir sang Praise to 
In the MTC choir singing to Elder Holland and Family

the Man and there were special music performances during his talk and the spirit was SO strong. I am so honored that I got to be apart of something so wonderful and to sing a song with so much power. During some parts of the song I couldn't even sing and was just mouthing the words because the spirit hit me. At the end of the talk we all stood up for Elder Holland and his family and he blew a kiss to all of us missionaries and it was so special especially because my companera y yo were in the FRONT ROW of the choir. I am so grateful to have been apart of that. After I got to see Elsie one last time and we were able to talk for a while, I love her and I know the people of Georgia are so lucky to get her! 
And speaking of seeing people I know...............I got to see Karch or ELDER ARGYLE TODAY!
(sorry yes fast forward to today!) Today is P-day and after we went to the Provo temple our district wanted to stop at the main campus bookstore and on our way there I got to see my best friend!!!! AHHHHHHH!!  It was SO awesome! We had to hurry but I was able to get a picture so hopefully I can upload it to you guys today!

 Thank you to everyone who sent me pictures of Karchers farewell and who really made me feel apart of that special day! I am so happy for him and I know without a doubt that he is going to be an amazing missionary!! Such a sweet blessing of the Lord and I am so grateful! And we may possibly see each other tomorrow at this sundays devotional! So cool!! I am so happy the Lord has allowed me to see so many dear people in my life! My heart is full!! I also saw Brittany knudsens sister (sorry i spelled that wrong) and so yeah so many great people serving the Lord.

Today my dear companera and I are teaching a new investigator named Francisco today and we got another investigator ealier this week named Julio! We are really trying and spanish is coming along slowly but surely. I love Spanish it seriously is so beautiful and just comes out so.....I dont know I can see why it is called the language of love. Or at least I think it is!
Hermana Guerrero and Hermana Bailey


 Hermana Bailey is so sweet and we are so patient and caring towards one another that we really get along so so well. I love her and I am already sad at the thought of leaving her.We leave in just a couple of weeks!!! Crazy! Oh yeah we went to Salt Lake on Thursday for our visas and so lets hope it all just works out!! They say it should! I have been reading the Book of Mormon in espanol everyday and Jesus the Christ. Just really learning a lot and I am just very amazed with this work and the love God has for all of us. Yesterday Hermana Bailey and I taught about the Plan of Salavation and its so true. We are children of a LOVING Heavenly Father and we all have a divine purpose and he wants us to be happy, to learn and grow and to come back to Him and be eternally happy. I have a testimony is Gods love for me and I am so thankful to be an instrument in his hands right now. Theres nothing else I would rather be doing! I miss you all so so so much but this work is so important and people deserve to know that there is a God who loves them and that we have a Savior, Jesus Christ, who atoned for our sins and has made it possible for us to return to live with God again. Christ made this plan of Salvation and Happiness possible and we can turn to him for ANYTHING! If your having a hard time with something, go to HIM, because he knows EXACTLY how you feel. I love that, and I love you all and hope you all know that.

I couldnt be happier being here and serving the Lord. Time is weird when yoyu are on a mission. It goes by so fast but there's still so much left ahead and I am very happy about that. We are teaching Fransisco tonight so please pray for us! My teachers are amazing and I know Hevaenly Father gave me my companion, my district, my teachers, and the presidency all for a reason.
Traveling on the shuttle bus to MTC from dorm

 I LOVE THIS WORK! it is extremely hard but it is so worth it. Sorry if my English isn't that great! It's hard typing in English and thinking about it when you are constantly trying to learn spanish from 6am-10pm! I love you all and sorry to cut it early but I want to get some pictures to you guys! Thanks for doing the blog! I love you all so much!!!! MY HEART IS FULL!!!! Luke 1:37 (keeps me going when the language gets hard) Anything is possible with the Lord on our side! 
love you all! :) :) :)
