Rainbow After The Storm

Wow, so much rejection this week! On Friday the first door we knocked at a woman yelled at us with a lot of bad words and someone on the street heard it all and then after we walked away he apologized... then later that day someone else yelled at else and wouldnt let us talk for 10 min while she told us we are in a cult and we only believe in/adore joseph smith. So for this email I am going to put our basic beliefs!
 

1) we believe in God(the father), Jesus Christ(the son), and the Holy Ghost. We believe that God and Jesus Christ have bodies of flesh and bones, and that the Holy Ghost is a spirit and they are all separate beings.

 
2) the Book of Mormon is ANOTHER testament of Jesus Christ. It does not replace the Bible, nothing can. It compliments it.

 
3) Jesus Christ died for our sins, and he was resurrected on the 3rd day and like him, we will also be resurrected after the second coming of Jesus Christ.

 
4) it is through baptism by someone that has the priesthood(power god gives man to preform saving ordinances) and reciev8ng the holy ghost, that we can enter into the celestial kingdom to live with God, Jesus Christ, and our families for the eternities.

 
5) joseph smith translated the Book of Mormon, Prophets from the americas wrote it. Joseph smith was the prophet of the restoration, but today we have a modern prophet to help guide us and understand the gospel of Jesus Christ.

 
I know that these things are true, and that it because I prayed and studied them. You all can know to that the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints is the only true church on the earth today, you just need to pray and ask in the name of Jesus Christ with a sincere heart.

 
I LOVE YOU ALL, IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS EMAIL ME. IF YOU JUST WANT TO TELL ME SOMETHING RANDOM ALSO EMAIL ME! miss you all a ton.

Church X 4 Emojis

Milagros yall!! A few things from this week: - A family we are teaching came to church yesterday - One of our friends that we stopped teaching 2 months ago went to church/the baptism of her GRANDDAUGHTER yesterday and told the missionaries there that she wants us to teach her and pass by again!! - my heels are absolutely destroyed from walking a ton but I couldnt be happier to be in pain for the salvation of other people - I gave a talk and people could understand me haha!! My comp said my argentinian accent was so heavy at some points in my talk that she couldnt understand my spanish - a kid asked if I was chinese.   My favorite miracle this week:   while we were walking to a baptism for another ward, a guy stopped on his motorcycle and said "tengo una consulta", I was prepared to help him with dirrections, while my companion was preparing to run haha. He took off his helmet and my companions contenence changed completely. She said "I know you!! Albino!!". This man...

I'm Dreaming Of A White Christmas

It rained, it poured, it rained some more. And then it snowed. Yup. Its summer for yall but it is very much winter for me and the rest of la gente here in Argentina. This week was cold, and as I am writing this email I am looking out of our window(we live in the 8th floor of an apartment building) all I can see is fog. The poor weather made it harder to work but we pushed through.   Had my first (multi)zone conference this week in Roca and it was great to get to know other missionaries! For those of you new to mission lingo- each companionship of missionaries has an area that they cover. Every couple "areas" is a "district", and every couple "districts" is a "zone"! Zone conference is when we all gather at one church building and spend the morning(or day in our case) together!  We had exchanges! This is when missionaries who are leaders over a zone come to a different area and we switch companions for the day. Hermana Orme and I stayed in our are...

New Missionary Pt 2

Image
Yup, the title is correct. I got asked WAY to many times if I was a new missionary in my area that i've already been in for 6 weeks:( confirmed my thoughts of being pretty much invisible for the first transfer here in Argentina. So thats been real nice the past couple days. Oh and I got called fat in the street. Lets just say people are VERY open here and will not hold anything back.    Other than that, I have a new companion and she said that I have perfect spanish! At this moment I would like to thank my mother for speaking to me in spanish at home sometimes, because of that, I didnt completely loose the spanish I learned in high school many many years ago.   We had more miracles this week and one of our friends we have been teaching for a few weeks finally came to church! WOOHOOOO!!! I cried when he walked in, and then a less active member that we've been working with walked in. I was speachless, crying in gratitude, and saying prayers of thanks. God is real, he hears ...
