Hello everyone! I hope that your New Year’s was amazing! Ours was a little hextic : ) That afternoon, the new companion of Hna McCoard’s came (Hna Lopez from Argentina), and I left to go to my new sector! I got to spend the day with Hna Garcia and Hna Broadhead before Hna Broadhead finished her mission the next day. It was sad to see her go, but I’m excited for her to start the next chapter of her life :) 

This week Hna Garica and I meet a man who only speaks FRENCH! Though I studied French in high school, it seems that Spanish has taken up the only foreign language space in my brain . ) But Hna Garcia and I have a Book of Mormon in French, so we are trying to learn a little bit, so that we can communicate : ) I know that we will be able to do all that the Lord needs, even if we don’t speak his language! 

This week I had my first split (when I trade places with a Hermana for the day)! Funny enough, my first split was with...... Hna McCoard : ) Everyone we saw was a little confused; "wait, your back???" Hahaha, I was grateful to come back, if only for the day : ) 

This week, as a whole mission, we started reading the Book of Mormon again with the goal to finish together by the 31st of May! I Love the Book of Mormon and know that it’s true! I was reading in Nephi 3: 7. In this part Nephi (a prophet in the Book of Mormon) shows his willingness to follow the Lord even when it looks impossible. This week I have been praying that I can put the will of the Lord before my own. We can not know what will happen to us, nor where he will send us, but we can serve with Joy in the place that we are.  I will, like Nephi, try to say,  "I will go and do the things which the Lord hath commanded, for I know that the Lord giveth no commandments unto the children of men, save he shall prepare a way for them that they may accomplish the thing which he commandeth them."

I know that this is true! 

Keep your chin up and know that God is with you : )

Sed de Buen animo!
