Well, still here in Libres! 

But! I have a new companion, Hermana Guzmán! 

She is pretty cool and we are finding lots of new work and new people to teach! We found this 20 year old, Andrea, who is from Veracruz and she is super nice and we are excited to start teaching her! She is really open and willing to listen to us. She also a little lonely so we are happy to give her some company too. :)

  We have been finding new people every week and it has been great seeing people with interest! A lot of the people here don't really want to listen to us, but we keep trying and we are persistent, so yeah, even when it feels awkward, keep trucking because if you give all to the Lord and leave up to Him, He will deliver!!! Learning that lesson and it is kinda fun. And seriously, in the mission, you feel awkward a couple times a day, but it is great because if you feel awkward as a missionary just remember you are working in the Lord's work, so it is worth it. 

Today for Pday we went to Oriental to climb 1227 stairs and it was super great and super fun and the view was super pretty!!!!! The only sad thing is is that the computer won't let me upload pics, so you might have to wait until next week to see them, sorry! But seriously the view was so great and beautiful! I took like 4 panoramic photos to capture the whole view from the top of the hill, and it was a pretty big hill!! Then we went to eat some tasty ice cream afterwards, pretty good Pday activity if you ask me. 

So I have been learning a lot in the mission about how to recognize the Holy Ghost and how to understand what he tells me, and it is pretty hard, but I am trying hard because it is so important! It really is super important to understand what the Holy Ghost tells you because what he tells you is what Heavenly Father is telling you, and when Heavenly Father tells you something, well, you should do it!!!!!!! 

Chapter 4 of PMG is super great and super helpful and I have been learning a lot from that chapter. The work of the Lord is dependent on the Spirit and how we react to the impressions we receve from him. If you don't know how to recognize the Spirit, then you can't effectively help other people understand the word of God. The gospel is great and the Church is a great place to be to feel the Spirit, and the temple even more!

 Man I miss the temple!!!
Anyways, I hope you are all doing well, and I hope you can all have a spiritual learning or missionary experience in this week!!!!!!!! Let me know about the miracles you guys are seeing!!
Love you all!!!!!!
