¡Hola Familia!
¿Cómo están
todos?
Bueno, this week FLEW by!
My comp and I have gone crazy this week, boiling all our
clothes, deep cleaning the house and doing 50 different lice removal hair
treatments. The good news is we are finally lice free!!! Well for now it
looks like we are good…BUT we're going to keep checking these next few weeks!
:)

This week we had zone conference with both the zones here in
Mar del Plata and I got to see my 2nd hija- Hna Quenta!!! Oh I just love
my little Peruvian. She's doing well – she just completed 7 months in the
mission!!!! Aww J (proud mom). It
was so fun to see her again, even though I hate goodbyes. :(

Anyway so the day after zone conferences we had interviews
with President Cifuentes. That morning, he invited a bunch of
missionaries to go running with him in the park and my comp and I got
picked! Haha…let’s just say it’s been a little while since I've been
running and I've been sore all week! My comp and I came in last but it’s
all good, we had fun anyways. :)
This weekend we had another capilla abierta and this time
Hnas Estrada and Davidson (my old comp) came! So we had a fun sleepover
with them and the capilla abierta went very well.
On Sunday, my comp and I did a musical number in church with
two 10-year-old girls from our ward. We did an acapella mash-up of
"I Feel My Savior's Love" and "I Know that My Redeemer
Lives." Let me tell ya, we had the whole ward crying. ;) Haha just
kidding, but it turned out very well and brought a special spirit to the meeting.
Johnny is progressing well. He really has opened up a
lot these last couple weeks and is more willing to accept what the Book of
Mormon says. For example, when before
all he wanted to hear was the Bible, but little by little he has realized that
the Book of Mormon is ANOTHER Testament of Jesus Christ, and teaches the
fullness of His gospel. Johnny has such
a big desire to learn and grow spiritually - it's awesome!
Our English class is going well! There's a family in
our ward that lived in Utah for 12 years so their sons speak perfect English
and it’s so fun to chat with them.
We also got our hot water problem fixed so we no longer have
to bathe ourselves with buckets and pitchers. :) I'm still in
denial that I only have 2 weeks left of my mission but I'm just trying to enjoy
every second of it!
I can't believe that this weekend is general conference
already!!! I'm so excited! :)
“I leave with you my witness and testimony that God our
Eternal Father lives and loves us. He is indeed our Father, and He is
personal and real. May we realize how close to us He is willing to come,
how far He is willing to go to help us, and how much He loves us."
- President Thomas S. Monson
I add my testimony to President Monson's that God really
does love us and wants to help us. One
of the ways he has chosen to help us is by giving us latter-day prophets that
receive inspiration and guidance from God to be able to tell us what He wants
for us and from us in order to be happy.
I hope you all enjoy your general conference weekend and can
feel of Heavenly Father's love for you every day.
Have a great week!❤
Con amor y menos piajos,
Hermana Bartholomew
