This week was great! We worked hard, and an investigator we´ve been working with for a while finally was baptized!! It was so great. She cried a lot haha. She´s the sister of a member who was less active. And wow I just love this family. They are basically my family. We made cappuccinos with them from cevada (which is a drink that you make the same way as coffee, and has the same taste, but without the harmful substances) and they loved it. It was so cool to see her change. After she was interviewed by the elder, she went and bought 2 skirts to use at church. Agh I love them so much. 

It´s so cool how on the mission we learn to love strangers. You could say it´s a miracle, especially for me, someone who didn´t like to even look at or talk to people. But I think it´s incredible how we meet these people and just love them so much and want the best for them, and work so hard to help them understand their potential and have joy in their lives. I love watching them understand the commandments and their purpose, and making changes to receive the Lord´s blessings. I love when they accept the baptism date, and their excitement the day of, and the small changes they make maybe without even noticing, like wearing a skirt or a tie to church, or using “Mormon vocab´´ like ward, stake, etc. I know that I am no longer the same person that I was a year and a half ago. I don´t know specifically or exactly how I changed, but I know I have, and I’m grateful for that. I am thankful to know that I am a daughter of God, and that He will always love me no matter what. I know that He lives. I know that He guides us through living prophets, seers, and revelators. I know that Christ can and wants to heal us. I know that families can be together forever. 

Love you all!!!! Boa seaman!!!
