HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Can you believe that it is already 2016? 2015 went by so fast! This
new year was great! Sister J. Baker spend the day working and then
went home and made pastels and lemon pie.

This week of work was a little rough cause EVERYONE went to the beach
to spend New Years. That was great for them but a bummer for us becaue
everyone we are teaching was at the beach. BUT thankfully we were
still able to find lots of new people to teach cause a few people
stayed in the city.

We are teaching a man names Wildo, he is great! He went to church last
week just because we invited him to go. we walked into the sacrament
meeting and there was Wildo. So this week we went back to teach him.
We taught him about Jospeh Smith and how he didnt know what church was
true because there was so many. It was cool cause Wildo said that he
also always wondered what church was the true church. It was a
powerful lesson and we are preparing him to be baptised!

We are teaching a young women named Yasmin who is amazing. She takes
care of her 3 younger siblings alone and is the most mature girl. She
loves the church. Loves the gospel.

We are teaching a family of four. They actually have family who are
members of the church but live in a different state. They also have a
nephew who is on a mission. So they are a little more familier with
what we are teaching and are really open about learning more. Bruna
(daughter, 17) has already come to church with us 2 time. She loves
it. She is reading the Book of Mormon and says she knows it is true.
She wents to get bapised. I love her so much.

ALSO OUR RECENT CONVERTS ARE NOT SMOKING AND MORE SO THAT I A MIRICLE
AND I AM SO HAPPY!!

Sister J. Baker and I are working hard hard hard! Shes a great
companion and we have so much fun together while we are working. She
is also teaching me how to play guitar.

This new year I was happy to take a step back and think about the
goals that I want to make to help me become the person I want to
become in 2016. I have learned on the mision that when we work without
goals it is alot harder to track our progress and improve. i hope that
each one of us can take a moment and make new goals. So we can all
become better people and closer to our savior.

I know Jesus Christ is our savior. I love him so much.

Funny story:
The other day Sister J. Baker and I were in our room talking and
planning our next day. As we were planning we both thought we heard
someone outside of our window. So we both started freaking out. We
decided that if we wanted to live we needed to know if someone was
outside or not. So we looked out the window and no one was there (we
live in a gated apt so we would see them and it is super hard to get
in) So we grabbed brooms and walked outside... to kill whoever was
there (not seriously kill but just hit them) when we went outside no
one was there. and it was just was the wind.. haha

I love you all!!
