Week Thirty-five: La Conferencia General

Family Home Evening with the ward of Cruz Del Sur

 General conference is the best! before the mission i neglected how amazing it is and the first time i saw it in the mision i didnt understand anything, but now i love it! When we got to the chapel for the saturday morning session there wasnt anyone there to set it up, so we tried to set up something with one of the computers there, but the speakers didnt work, so we ended up going to another church building nearby to watch the first session and returned to our building to watch the next session. it seems like murphys law is waayy bigger in the mission and i dont know why haha. Everything that could possibly go wrong, ALWAYS goes wrong... but somehow it always works out. its funny how the Lord works sometimes. 

Oh yeah and im writing today because we had general conference on saturday and couldnt have our pday that day.

The first time i listened to conference i didnt like it when the native spanish speakers spoke because i couldnt try to ignore the translator and pick out the english phrases that slipped through haha but this time is was totaly opposite! i loved it when the spanish speakers gave their talks becase i didnt have to listen to two voices. its crazy how much can happen in just 6 short months.

this week i was busy sorting out all the reciepts from al the missionaries reimbursements from last year and getting them readty to sent to mexico city, so we didnt get much time to teach people, but we taught a guy in english who is from an island in moulta or something like that over in europe. he has a super strong accent and a a masive black guy who is married to a bilingual mexican woman and they speak english. he is moving back to europe,so we cant teach him pressively, but we are going to have a family home evening with them this week in english and my companion is NOT excited hahaha and i have to admit, its really hard to teach the gospel in english haha i havnt done it for so long! we taught him about the restaruation and i completely forgot how to say sacred grove in english hahaha

Challenge: study AT LEAST one talk from this session of conference. its hard to keep up with the speakers in real time, so go to lds.org and pick a topic or a speaker you like and STUDY a talk! dont just listen to it, take notes of the things the Holy Ghost tells you while you study it and then put it into practice!

Thank you for all your love and support! i love every single one of you and hope you all have a great week!
