Buenas tardes!! Feliz 4 de Julio!! :)
Hola familia y amigos!! :) we had another great week here in ecuador, full of miracles. I love the people here in this area and i feel so grateful to be able to be here and watch people change their lives and apply the Atonement of Christ in their lives.
My highlight of the week was with the Familia Nuñez. Oh how i just love this family!!! :) they are like my family here in ecuador! they have been less active for a while, but these last few weeks that we have been visiting them, they have been making big changes in their lives and going to church!! i have watched them as they have grown in their testimonies, and have grown more unified as a family. Yesterday for the first time the mom of the family finally came to church. my companion and i almost cried we were so happy!! :) they also did their first fast together with us yesterday, and i am so proud of them!! They are the sweetest family, and i cant believe how much they have changed. that is what i love so much about my mission- watching people change as they accept Jesucristo in their lives. wow. its amazing! :) there is almost no happiness that compares to seeing these people change their lives for the better! :)
This week we also met with the familia mendoza a few times this week-- our family of investigatores. they are awesome as well! they came to church yesterday for the first time and everybody was so welcoming to them. they are a family of 4 and we are reading the Book of Mormon. they have a Christian background, and are very accepting to learn more. ... and they always give us food!! haha! :)
This week we also had an intercambio with the hermana lideres.. and so we were in a trio all day friday with one of the hermana lideres. it was different to teach with 3 sisters, but we were able to learn some things, and see how we can improve as missionaries.
as usual my companion and i are always laughing at something!! :) she is the greatest and we have a good time teaching together and learning from one another. there is always something funny that happens to us during the day. from me hitting my head really hard on the roof of a taxi, to another thing.... we are enjoying our time here!
What a great blessing we have in our lives to be members of the Church and know of the great happiness that we can find as we follow Christ. I know that God has a plan. His plans are perfect!! every day i am more and more amazed at how His plan always works. its amazing to me to understand more each day about how each thing in our life has a purpose and there is something that we can learn.
well! have a great week!! :) and HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!! :)
con amor,
Hermana Warburton
