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 :)
