Conference... :)

Guess what everybody?? I GOT TO WATCH CONFERENCE!! And wanna know what else?? I GOT TO WATCH IT IN ENGLISH!!

The Lord answers prayers. And goodness gracious did He answer my prayers through His General Conference.

This week has been quite the fight. It honestly was a pretty slow week. I don´t really know why. Because it was such a good week. It was so full of miracles.

Miracle Monday: We were planning on visiting Hermana Aida´s sister last Monday after we emailed. But as we were walking past the church, Hermana Raquel´s friend, Josephina invited us in. She gave us hot chocolate and bread and she asked us all sorts of questions. She then brought her whole family to Noche De Barrio on Wednesday and her husband taught me how to play Brandi Carlile on the piano. P.s. I´m getting really good at piano. I just need someone to play the left hand for me. :)

We started working with Andrea on her Personal Progress. She hasn´t come to church since her baptism because there have been some problems with some other jovenes. Girls are such brats. But every sunday, since she doesn´t come, she asks her sister for the Young Women manual and she teaches herself. Yesterday, she got dressed up super cute and she came to both sessions of General Conference. She felt the spirit and so did Yiseli and last night, we were able to fix the friend problems. Yiseli asked for her forgiveness and Andrea gave it to her.. Andrea has such a sweet spirit. I love her so much. They applied what they learned in conference!

On Wednesday, we had a zone meeting and Hermana Cuevas and I decided to pray to be companions again. God answers prayers!! :) On Friday, we got to be companions for the day. We woke up at 4:40 in Hernandarias to teach Seminary and then we traveled here to invite everyone to conference.

Hugo went to the Priesthood session and the Elders said that they took great care of him. And cute Maria Espinola wanted to go to church on Sunday with her husband Pedro. So they showed up at 8:30 and no one was there. They called us and they ended up going to conference with the bishop and his family. They lost more than half of their day, but they filled it with the spirit.

Wasn´t General conference incredible?? I really hope that you all were able to watch EVERY SESSION!! No one session is more important than another.

Here are some of my notes.

Move into the future with CONFIDENCE.

Which way do we face?

Christ knew-- flawlessly-- which way He faced. We should do the same.

I go to partake of the Sacrament!

We should make the sacrament a truly spiritual experience.

Don´t give up!!

Work together.

As we assist in His mission of saving souls, we too will be saved in the process.

I LOVED THAT people talked in their native languages!! :) So powerful.

God will not live our lives for us.

We are NOT PUPPETS.

We do not decide what is right or wrong. God does.

Go to work so that there is something for Him to help us with.

To know the truth of the Gospel, you must first live the principles.

Light dims gradually-- DON´T LET YOUR  LIGHT DIM.

Love one another! LOVE EVERYONE

Be meek.

Teach the truth and the commandments how Christ would.

Don´t be disagreeable.

Parents are important.

Kindness is powerful.

NEVER doubt the testimony of God´s prophets.

Opposition sends truth seekers to their knees.

Caution: You won´t be of much help to others if you are not sure of your own testimony.

Pray for your future.

Again, parents are important.

Stop making excuses

Work-out

Be Obedient, whole-heartedly

REPENT

FORGIVE

Accept trials.

Say yes to Jesuschrist. Follow Him ALWAYS

Do what you can.

BLESS the poor!!

Our work is about LOVE

"What we do is but a drop in the ocean. But if we did not do it, the ocean would have one drop less."

Always pray. And always help others.

FAST: it´s a law!

Don´t take lightly the love you feel from the Prophet of God.

God Speaks

The church is organized by the Lord Himself.

Make time to PRAY always... If you say you don´t have time. IT¨S A LIE. from Satan.

I´m out of time now. But I loved how straightforward and frank the speakers were. They definitely told us how it is. We have a lot of work to get going!!

But just remember that the Lord loves us. Follow the Prophet. Be good parents. We can recieve our own personal revelation. And If we stay focused on the important things, we will be blessed.

I know that the Lord loves us and He hears our prayers. He wants to guide us. and to help us. He loves us.

Christ lives.

The church is true.
