Another Week in the Books!

Happy Monday Everyone! This week was a great week honestly, we had a lot of success and spiritual experiences! 

First things first our baptism! We baptized a little girl who is 9 years old on Saturday and she is the sweetest thing. Her name is Franchelis and after her baptism she shared her testimony and said "Thanks to the mormons for always visiting me to help me follow Jesus Christ" It was a cute funny testimony and we love her tons. We are working with her parents to give up a few things so they too can be baptized! Pray for them!  

We are teaching a lot of people right now. The only problem is that not many of them are wanting to progress. We had a few but they ended up not living in our area so we had to refer them to the Sisters in Bonao :( but all is well. This week we are going to focus more on asking direct questions and being more bold. I have been blessed by this gospel so much that it motivates me to share it! 

Last night I was walking in the street and started to wonder "What would my life be like without the gospel?" Lots of times I have doubts, but every single time without fail when the doubts come, comfort immediately follows. I can always find peace in this gospel. Jesus Christ really does love us. Heavenly Father really does have a perfect plan for us. 

I was on the phone yesterday with my parents cause it was my mother’s birthday and it was also Father’s day, Shoutout to the GOAT parents. We talked about my Aunt Ann and Great Grandpa Johnson. They both loved missionary work more than anything, and we all believe they are here helping me with the work. I am so grateful for the opportunity to serve and have trials. Trials help us recognize all of our blessings. The mission is so hard, but it has helped me to know that the atonement of Jesus Christ is for more than just our sins. He knows how we feel. 

I love you all and hope you have a fantastic week!!
