"In everything give thanks; for this is the will of God and Christ Jesus concerning you." 1 Thes. 5:18


Como estan!?!  How’s life in the great states!?! i hope you are all doing great and loving school and work and such!! This month our mission president has been having us study the atonement of Jesus Christ and it has been incredible!!! What a great gift this is for each one of us individually and as i continue to study, the depth of my love for the savior and his sacrifice grows and my love for others as well!! Each one of us is a loved child of God and because of that, he sent his beloved son to atone for us.  To suffer alone, to bleed from every pore and to do it for us. Wow!  How incredible this gospel is!! How blessed we are to have it in our lives!! i am so grateful for this!!!  A cool miracle we saw this week. sooo we've been praying for the blessing of people letting us into their houses to teach them because we make so many contacts and receive references and show up, but they never let us in because of some excuse that they have at the time. So we've been praying that people will let us in more, and then bam!!! It POURED and i mean POURED every single day this week!! We got soaked—At first i thought of it as a trial, making it even harder for us, until i looked back and realized that a ton of people this week let us in only because we were soaked missionaries on their porch, begging for them to let us in out of the rain!! what a miracle –tons of people were sympathetic to us and let us in and we were able to share quick messages with them to hopefully strengthen their families and help them find the restored gospel of Jesus Christ!!  Another cool challenge we had was to try and mention the atonement in every single contact, because that's a huge part of this gospel!  My challenge for the week— read up on the atonement and you will appreciate this gospel so much more!! i love you all and hope you have a great week!!
