how are you all doing!? it sounds
like the normal excitement of basketball is finally back in the house...with
that brings Thanksgiving, Christmas, and a New Year! well i will get to
updating you!! :))
first things first, ANA GOT
BAPTIZED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! we have been teaching Ana for about
a month, and she was ready to get baptized the day we met her!!! partly because
she is so pilas, and partly because she has listened and met with missionaries
for 9 years!!!! needless to say it was a VERY spiritual baptismal service!!!!
watching her enter the waters of baptism was so amazing. she told that over all
the years she has talked with missionaries not once had she gone to church. she
kept telling us that we made the change in her life, but thats a lie. she made
it and god made it. we were just lucky enough to be there.
also, CHANGES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! yep
there is a new change in the mission of hermana canty!! my new comp is hermana
aguilar!!! she is 21 and is from honduras...and I LOVE HER!!!!!! she is so cute
and so pilas!!! we are having a great time!!!! :)))
we were able to see many miracles
this week!!! thats is a goal i have to pay more attention to the small mirclaes
we see everyday!! i know they are there and you can see them too! we just have
to look for them!! :)
we had a special stake broadcast
yesterday and Elder Bendar said something that really stuck out to me...he
said, "Living the gospel and keeping the covenants isn´t hard, but NOT
doing it is" HOW TRUE THAT IS!!!!!!! this gospel is easy...it comes down
to LOVE and OBEDIENCE!!!! we just have to trust in our heavenly father for what
we need and we will be blessed!!!!! that is what i have truly come to learn on
the mission...obedience is first!! when we are obedient..we are blessed and
when we arent...we dont receive those blessings. i hope that each day we can
strive to be more obedient to the SMALL things of the gospel (the big things
are easy to do...its the small things that take the effort!)
I LOVE YOU ALL SO MUCH!!!!! thanks
for your love and support and everyuthing you do for me!! have a great week and
we will talk more next week!!! GO BIG GREEN..AND RED..AND BLUE!!!!! ;)))
con mucho amor,
Hermana Canty
