<b><span style="color: blue; font-size: x-large;">Wow, my last letter to send home as a missionary. </span></b><span style="color: #444444; font-size: 15px;">I cannot put into the words all the good and sad emotions I have felt the past few days. I think at church on Sunday it really hit me that I am going home (especially after having to say a closing prayer or bear my testimony in each class or meeting haha). I love the Hispanic people, every time I see one I just want to talk to them and just help them feel of the love their Savior has for them :] they are a beautiful people and I have been so blessed to work with them throughout my mission. </span></div>

<b><span style="color: blue; font-size: x-large;">How grateful I am to have followed the prompting of extending my mission. </span></b><span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-size: 15px;">The few weeks before the extention and during the last 4 weeks that I extended my mission were probably some of the most hardest weeks I had to face during my whole mission, actually during my whole life to be honest. But I have grown from those experiences, and I am who I am today because of what I have gone through and grown through :] A few weeks ago I had a normal interview with President Ashton of the mission. As I expressed to him my concerns about my area and going home he simply said,</span><span style="font-size: large; font-weight: bold;"> </span>"Stop stressing. Just put your trust in the Lord".<span style="font-size: large; font-weight: bold;"> </span><span style="font-size: 15px;">That has been something I have been learning even BEFORE my mission! To trust in the Lord, replace my fear with faith. </span></span></div>

Our investigator C has been progressing so well! The other day we stopped by to say hello and found her mom and grandmother came to visit from Mexico. We shared a quick message about families and left. I put my trust in the Lord that things will be fine :] and she will be baptized when she is ready. She called us later that week andshe said she was ready to be baptized:] <span style="line-height: 21.2999992370605px;">We also have another investigator J who has been progressing so well in the gospel! The only things holding him back was that he just wanted to know more before baptism. J didnt even have his baptismal interview until sunday morning before church started, he passed:]</span></div>

How grateful I am to have been an intrusment in the Lords hands for the past 19 months, the mission I've experienced has not only changed the lives of others but has changed mine as well. No joy has been greater for me then that of seeing others change for the better and follow Jesus christ. I am forever grateful for my savior jesus christ, and will serve him for the rest of my life and onward. How blessed I am for my family in California :] for my parents who have supported me here on my mission through all I have gone through. How happy I am to also have another part of my newly found family here in Texas :] I know one day I will return to see all those who I have met on my mission, if not then I know in Heaven I will be able to see them with open arms and smiling faces :]</span></div>

<b style="font-size: xx-large;"></b>Well this past week has gone by so very slow haha. As hard as I try I have been so distracted about coming home haha, I am really excited to see you all :] I received a package from mom this past week that had a cd in it. The words to one of the songs really stuck out to me, "Let it go". I read a talk this past week that also used this phrase of "letting it go" or "leaving things alone".One of the apostles of the church shared a story about a man who eventually learned to "let things go"<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br />
<br />
I believe the story happened in the early 1900's There was a newly couple who were expecting their first child. The night the wife went into labor she started having problems. Her husband tried to contact the local city doctor to have him rush over to help with the birth of the child. The doctor finally arrived at the home, he had just come rushing from helping a sickly person at another home a few blocks away. The doctor seeing that the pregnancy was risking the lives of both the baby and the mother he did the best he could and the beautiful baby was born. A few days later the new mother passed away from an illness the doctor was treating with the person he had previously visited right before he rushed over to help with the pregnancy. The new father was filled with devistation and depression. This father stuggled for many years to get over what had happened. He had many hard feelings against the doctor. A few years after the accident the father was pulled in my the stake president. The stake president knew of his situation and simply told him, "Let it alone. There is nothing you can do to bring her back". The father came to his senses and looked at the situation in the perspective of the doctor, he learned how to forgive him and "let it go". </div>

<span style="color: #444444; font-size: 16px;">As I walked up and sat in the chairs at the pulpit waiting to talk, my eyes glanced at all the familiar faces I knew and I started to get emotional.

I explained,</span><span style="color: #444444; font-size: x-large;"><b> "For those of you who do not know a lot about missionaries, we leave our families for 18 months to 2 years to peach the gospel of Jesus Christ. <u>But every Sunday as I come to church I feel as though you are all my family.</u> And we are, because we are all children of God and we are all apart of the same family". </b></span></div>

<span style="color: #444444;">Its hard to think I only have 2 more Sundays here in Texas as a missionary. Through all the extremely hard trials I have gone through on my mission I would not change a thing.

I have grow</span><span style="color: #444444; line-height: 22.7199993133545px;">n to know him more and feel a LITTLE glimpse of what he suffer through for me, and for those here that i have been blessed to serve with. He has taught me the power of forgiveness. And though I have been rejected for preaching this gospel and hated for being a light I will never let down my standards, I will never stop letting my light shine. I am and will always be a disciple of Jesus Christ. I am a daughter of god, I know that will never change. He loves me and I love him. I know he knows whats best for me which is why I trust in him, and why I am not quick to get mad at him when a trial passes through my life. I know my Father has my best interest in mind. How excited I am to return home with honor to my beautiful family.</span><b style="color: #444444; line-height: 22.7199993133545px;"><span style="color: #444444; font-size: x-large;"> I believe when I see you all it will be the same feeling I will have one day when I am reunited with my Father, and his son Christ and with all those whos lives I have been able to touch because I am an instrument in the Lords hands. He works through me, this is his work, and his church.</span></b></div>

I always feel the love of my savior, even during trials. and like the song says, He knows I will give all my life to him. </span></b><span style="color: #444444;">I love him and because of that I am willing to suffer on behalf of his name. These past few weeks have been so trying and struggles from left and right. I feel like Job when Satan is attacking him with everything and still Job held to his faith in god. I know these trials will make me stronger in the end. </span></span></span></div>

<span style="color: #2f393a; font-family: Lucida Grande, Lucida Sans Unicode, Lucida Sans, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: normal;"><span style="line-height: 20px;">I plead with you to remember to make righteous choices. We have commandments for a reason. Like as parents give children rules to keep them safe, so has our father in heaven given us commandments to keep us safe. I know for a fact if we do not keep his commanements and do not stay obedient we will be miserable in the end. How beautiful the atonement is, that we can be forgiven of our mistakes if we humble ourselves and repent. A beautiful thing I have also learned from my savior is the power of forgiveness. dont let others actions effect you, and dont let satans power control you!! god is more powerful then satan, he can help you out of anything as long as we trust in him. </span></span></div>

<b><span style="color: #444444; font-size: large;">This past week was filled with bitter-sweet moments.</span></b> I'm not sure why my last few weeks are being so tried but I know something good will come from it. Last Thursday there was a wedding! We hope she will excursize her faith and be baptized. After all the long nightly prayers, fasts, and sacrifices I've done I know that in the end I've done everything I could to help her and I just put all my trust and confidence in God. I know he sees the sacrifices in my companion Hna B and I are going through and I know he will bless us for them. We are planning tonight to help G be baptized next week, she is ready and shes been waiting. I pray things go well.</div>

<b><span style="color: #444444; font-size: large;">My companion Hna B is slowly healing. She is such an inspiration to me, she walks up and down and up and down so many flights of stairs and never gives up. It is such an honor to be her companion.</span></b> She is sacrificing and going through so much to help the people here. Shes been getting crazy leg cramps out of no where, we say the doctor today and he said if it doesn't get better until next week she will need xrays.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
With all that is going on for the past two weeks I came across a quote that I can really relate too,<i> " If we are going to be disciples (of Christ), if we are going to say that we are sent by the Lord Jesus Christ, then we had better have some evidence of it. Part of that evidence will be at least a moment in that Garden with those tears, and a step or two in the general direction of Calvary made in anguish and sorrow" -Jeffery R Holland.</i> <b><u><span style="color: #444444;">I am a disciple of Christ, I know I was sent here to this area in H 1 with Hermana B for a very special reason. I know this is His work, I am only an instrument in the Lords hands. I know all that I go through is for Him, and he's felt my pains, burdens, tears, and fears. I know in the Garden of Gethsemane he suffered there and felt all my pains, and he overcame it. And that's what gives me hope, that I will come out of these trials too because He did. I know there is nothing impossible for God, he is all powerful and knows all. Because of this I remember to stay patient. I can only see the little picture of how things will turn out but Heavenly Father has an eternal perspective. </span></u></b></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I love all of you and thank you for all the prayers and sacrifices you go through for me and the people in my area. This week is the temple trip for those who are leaving this transfer. I am excited to see all the missionaries I came into the mission, and feel so happy that<b><span style="font-size: large;"> <span style="color: #444444;">I have a couple more weeks left in the mission. This is my life and I love every minute of it because I know the "trial of [my] faith is more precious then gold"-bible.</span></span></b></div>

This past week has been the most stressful week of my mission. I know that the more faith Hna Beltran and myself keep exercising the more trials keep coming, and believe me this past week were some of the most hardest trials I've had to deal with in the mission. And as much as I would love to write one by one of all the trials I had to face this week I will try and keep the letter short and leave it on a good note. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This past week our car broke down so we were put on bikes. We were able to bike to visit C our investigator who is ready to be baptized :] We went over the baptismal questions and everything was good! We set up for her to have her baptismal interview on sunday. As we left her apartment to go to the next appointment we crossed a pretty busy road.<b><span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-size: large;"> My companion Hna B was riding in front of me when a guy in a big car made a turn without looking and ran right into Hna B.</span><span style="font-size: x-large;"> </span></span><span style="color: red;"><span style="font-size: x-large;">It was one of the most scariest moments I've had on the mission. As the car hit my companion Hna B her bike</span> </span><span style="color: #444444; font-size: large;">got pulled under his car but she got pushed back and flew a good amount of feet away from the car and landed in her backpack. The ambulance came and took her to the hospital.</span></b> I had no idea what to do. Something I learned from my dad is laughing is the best medicine. As much as I wanted to freak out at the situation I know I needed to stay calm for Hna B. She laughed when the medic was asking for her first name and I got it wrong. I replied, "Gesh Hna B I've been with you for about 15 week and still cant get your first name right". Though her eyes were holding back many tears she laughed. At the hospital we waited a long time for results, miraculously Hna B walked away with just some pulled ligaments which will take a few weeks to heal but she will get better. G and N were kind enough to pick us up from the hospital at 10:30pm and take us home. The next few days were rough for Hna, from the accident it left her SUPER sore so shes needed help getting up out of bed, sitting down, basically the poor thing can barely move. While all this is going on I took phone calls from numerous people wanted to know how she was doing, then canceling and rescheduling appointments because there was no way we could go out and teach people. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
On sunday my companion had enough strength to go to church. C showed up (thank goodness) and had her baptismal interview and passed :] now we have to wait on the doctors to see if its okay if she can be baptized. C and G will be married this week :]</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b><span style="color: #444444; font-size: large;">I look back now at the weeks I was figuring out if I should extend and </span><span style="color: red; font-size: x-large;">I'm so grateful God gave me the prompting to extend my Mission and I did.</span></b><span style="color: #444444; font-size: x-large;"> </span>I know that I'm not only here 4 more week to help our investigators be baptized but I'm here to help my companion Hermana B. I love her so much and am really blessed to have her as my companion. The trials we are going through are only making us stronger and more determined to do Gods will. I know Satan is really trying to bring us down so that people wont be baptized but I know god is more powerful that satan, this is gods work and I know he will help us through it. I love you all. Please keep my companion Hermana B in your prayers. love-Hermana Jaeger</div>

I feel impressed to talk about families. I know Satan is really attacking the family unit because in the family is where we gain our most strength, belonging, and love. One thing I really want to stress is for the importance for men to stay worthy of their priesthood! I see that Satan attacks with so much greater force on the men today because they are the ones who have this authority to help the world make and keep covenants with God. Without the priesthood we could not do anything, take the sacrament, go on a mission, make covenants with God such as baptism, ect. Also I see the importance for woman to be virtuous and dress modestly. woman have a great influence on men and when we are woman of righteousness and goodness the men are also the same. </div>

This week we were able to read the Family Proclamation to a young couple we are teaching. I understand and see the importance of waiting on the Lords timing in all things and following his counsel. How grateful I am for such a wonderful family. I am grateful for every fathers blessing I've ever received in my life. I am grateful for all the times my mom took me to mutual or any kind of young woman activity. I've noticed that the daily things my parents did for me really did shape me into the person I am today. I love each and every one of my siblings. I've always had a great desire to be a good example for them and even though im not the most perfect example for them, as long as they see that I put God first in my life thats all that matters. i love you all so much and am really grateful for everything you do for me. love-hna jaeger<br />

Our ward mission leader had a ward FHE at the church on saturday and we had a great turn out! The WML Hno R spoke on gifts we receive from god/christ like attributes. Each person wrote a gift or attribute of christ they felt they had and then they passed the gift to someone in the room who they felt had that gift from god. it was a sweet lesson and at the end we celebrated Hno Rs' birthday. </span><br />

Our most progressing investigators right now is C. They are expecting to have a baby girl the end of august. She is ready to be baptized. Please if you could pray and fast this sunday for C that she can get baptized? ;] The relief society is throwing her a baby shower which is so sweet because all her family is down in mexico. </div>

I wanted to share a quick story, something I learned this sunday about sacrifices. The teacher had us read two stories from the bible, first is the story of the young rich prince found in luke 18:18-24. This young prince is a good guy, he keeps all the commandments and does what is right. With this he askes christ what more does he need to do to enter into the kingdom if God? Christ tells him he must give up all he has and follow him. the young prince then turns and walks away crying sorrowfully because he had many great riches of the world. We then ready a story of the fisherman in matthew 4:18-22. This is when Christ tell the fisherman to forsake all and follow him, so the fisherman drop their nets and leave their father to follow Christ. These fisherman become apostles of Christ, James and John. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 15px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">
<div>
<span style="font-size: 15px;">Now I want you to think for a moment. From these two stories do we know the name of the fisherman? Yes, James and John. Do we know the name of rich prince? No...why is that? Because is we do not follow christ we will make nothing of ourselves, in the end. </span><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>To truly follow Jesus Christ and be his disciples we must "forsake all" or give up all we have to follow his example. </b></span><span style="font-size: 15px;">Then he will make of us more then we can make of ourselves. So what are you willing to give up to follow Christ's example? Through out my mission, little by little I have given up more and more of myself and I have seen the blessing from it. I have received more happiness in my life because I have been focussed on helping the lives of others. </span><b style="font-size: xx-large;">My mission has and is changing me for the better :] I know as we trust in God and follow his sons example we will return home to him with great joy. </b>I <span style="font-size: 15px;">love you so much and am so blessed to have such an amazing family! </span></div>

<span style="font-size: 15px;">This week I came across a story about a mormon pioneer. His story of what he suffered through to get to salt lake touched my heart. And through all he went through he expressed his gratitude for his trials. for during that trial of trecking to the salt lake valley in the blistering snow is where he said, "I came to know God".

Wherefore, the Lord God gave unto man that he should act for himself. Wherefore man could not act for himself save it should be that he was enticed by the one or the other" (2 nephi 2:15-16). </b></i></div>
<div style="font-size: 15px;">
<br /></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 15px;">We could not act for ourselves unless we had two choices, the good and the bad. THATS why we needed to come to earth :] to try and test our agency. God hopes that all his children will return back home to him. That is why he sent his son Christ, so that through him we may be forgiven. </span><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>But we must do our part to receive this grace and mercy. </b></span><span style="font-size: 15px;">How grateful I am for my heavenly fathers love! Even with our imperfections He loves us! He does not expect us to become perfect here on earth, but he does expect us to try. How grateful I am for this moment in life to help others come unto Christ. </span></div>

<b>"There was a fisherman who lived with his wife and 5 children. This father loved his family and wanted the best for them. He went out to work hoping to catch enough fish to give him income to take care of his family. As the fisherman pulled the net out of the water he found that his net was empty of fish, but found 7 clams. In each clam he found 7 beautiful pearls. The fisherman was happy and knew that with these 7 pearls he would be able to give much to his family. As the fisherman walked home he passed by a man sitting on the road, begging for food. The fisherman had compassion on the begger and decided he would give this poor man 6 pearls, for with the 7th pearls the man could support his family for awhile and then go back to work. As the fisherman traveled home the begger decided to follow this fisherman home. The fisherman walked into his home and closed the door. The begger peaked inside the window and say the fisherman put the one other pearl on his nightstand and turned in for the night. The begger quickly reached through the window, took the 7th pearl from off the fishermans desk and walked away."</b></div>

Now, what did you get from this story? Maybe not much at first but that the begger is supper greedy. In this story the fisherman is like Jesus Christ, he has given us 6 days out of the week to do what we need and want. But are we sometimes like the begger, greedily taking the 7th day and doing what we want with it? The Lord has asked us to sanctify the 7th day of the week to him. and when you think about it, after ALL that Christ has done for us, all he asks of us is to spend this one day out of the week in reverence to him. Are we doing so?</div>

<span style="font-size: 15px;">Hey! </span><span style="line-height: 21.2999992370605px;"><span style="font-size: 15px;">Wow how blessed I am to be serving here in H 1. We have so GREAT invesitgators right now. Most of them are apart of part- member families. (this is to you austin, if you want new investigators that will stay in the church go teach the less active or part-member families. you will find potential investigators there :]). Of course, when I met these investigators whos families are all mormon expect them, most of them were not open to learning about the gospel. But as</span><span style="font-size: large;"> <b>my companion and I found ways to serve such as cleaning homes or helping in the yards</b></span><span style="font-size: 15px;"> these non-members started to open up more to us and started to see that we are not there to just baptize them but </span><span style="font-size: large;"><b>we are there to love them, care for them, and help them receive more happiness in life. </b></span></span></div>

<span style="line-height: 21.2999992370605px;"><span style="font-size: 15px;">With this topic I want to talk about one really sweet investigators we have right now. C has been kind of interested in learning more about the church but since the time is getting closer to when the baby is due shes more open to learning and preparing for baptism. We are praying and hoping and having faith that she will be baptized. I know this step of baptism will help them as a family work towards going to the temple :]</span></span></div>

We have a lot of families who at least one of the spouses are not a member. For the rest of my mission I hope that I can help ALL the part-member families in my area have the goal of going to the temple. We are planning on giving temple pictures to the part member families in our area to help them remember where they should be heading. We hope form this that the nonmembers will see that baptism is just one of the steps to go to the temple and to be sealed with their families for eternity. That it is essential, not an opption, to be sealed in the temple as a family so we may live with them for ever. </div>

How grateful I am for my parents and for their choice to be married and sealed in the temple. Mom and Dad your choices have made a great impact upon my life and I thank you for making such righteous decisions. Your actions have really blessed and shaped my life. I am who am I am because of the example you have set for me by the way you both have lived your lives. I know my heavenly father is a god of miracles, this week we had the miracle of having 7 investigtors a church. I know this happen because of our faith in god and obedience to his commandments. I love you all and am so excited to see you in september, I know the extra 4 weeks on my mission will make our reunion all the more sweeter :] <span style="line-height: 21.2999992370605px;">love- hermana ashley jaeger</span></div>

This week was a pretty normal week, we visited a lot of member. I've come to a conclusion of the different ways members react to trials. The conclusion was that those members who have already been through the temple bear their burdens with more strength in the Lord then those who have not gone to the temple. Our goal for the rest of my time here in H 1 is to get at least a temple picture into every one of our members homes, so they may remember where they should be heading in life.</div>

<span style="font-size: 15px;">this past sunday we had stake conference. As I looked and said hello to familiar faces I went up and talked to the M couple, the first of my investigators that got baptized. As I talked to them and reminded hno M that he said hed share his testimony before i left my mission he replied back that he was sharing his testimony that day in sacrament meeting and how nervous he was! Haha it was so incredible hearing his beautiful testimony of how his wife had waited 27 years until he was baptized. He said how MANY missionaries would come and go but hed never want to listen. </span><span style="font-size: large;"><b>He expressed his gratitude for the patient sisters who worked with him for so long to help him get baptized and he named off each sister, sister k, m, j, and jaeger.

I know this gospel can change lives, for the better. Now him and his wife are working to be sealed into the temple :]</span></div>

I'm EXTENDING MY MISSION!!<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><b><span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="color: #444444;">This week I received my </span><span style="color: red;">"trunky papers"</span><span style="color: #444444;">. Here is a little of what the letter said from president,</span></span></b><span style="color: #444444;"> "I am sure it is with mixed emotions that you are realizing that your release date is just a few months away...I am writing to extend a challenge to you. With all of the experiences, speaking skills, knowledge and faith you have acquired since your mission began, there has never been a time in your mission when you were more qualified and able. You are at the height of your missionary service. Never have you been more capable to have a powerful impact on this sacred work of the Lord...I </span></span><span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;">challenge</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: small;"> you to utilize these remaining sacred weeks in the mission field to increase your pace, and acheive a great work in the name of the Lord...These last precious days will never come again...I pray the Lord's greatest blessings to be upon you as you sprint to the end".</span><br />
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; line-height: 21px;">

<div style="color: #444444; font-size: 15px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #444444;">
<span style="font-size: 15px;">I have spent the last few weeks praying to know whether I should extend my mission or not. After countless prayers and trying to find an answer I have come to the conclusion that the Lord trusts me enough to make my own decision. I talked to my mission president about it and he said that I am only obligated to serve until August 26, and the Lord is so incredibly happy with me for serving that long. He said to go to the Lord and ask him if he would be fine with me extending if that is what I would want to do, then finished</span><b><span style="font-size: x-large;"> "us as a mission would love if you extended"</span></b><span style="font-size: 15px;">. As I pondered the next few days about this I realized something. At the beginning of this transfer I asked the Lord why I was in the area. I just wanted to know who needed my help. Since that prayer there have been countless moments and struggles from members and nonmemebrs that have shown me why I am here. I have very specific investigators who are in my area who I know I was sent here to help them be baptized. </span><b><span style="font-size: x-large;">I feel I must give them all that I have (including all the time I can have to serve here)</span></b><span style="font-size: 15px;"> to help them be baptized and then work towards going to the temple. </span></div>
<div style="color: #444444;">
<span style="font-size: 15px;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: #444444; font-size: 15px;">After also talking with the family :] </span><b><span style="color: red; font-size: x-large;">I have come to a conclusion that I want to extend my mission and stay the extra 4 weeks </span></b><span style="color: #444444; font-size: 15px;">until september 26th. The only reason I am making this decision is because of the people here. Form my investigators, memebers, and less actives. I feel I can really help them even more if I stay until september and not leave in august. I know right now it feels like the 4 weeks will be so long, but thinking in an eternal perspective its only a little moment. And to think how many people I can help bring unto christ in those last 4 weeks. I know this gospel is true. I want to help as many people as I can be apart of this great joy in the gospel! </span></div>
<div style="color: #444444; font-size: 15px;">

<div style="color: #444444; font-size: 15px;">
I love you. How grateful I am for your support and love. I am so lucky to have such an incredible family. I know he will watch over you until I come home :] love- hna ashley jaeger</div>

Today we passed one that reminded me of when dad use to take us on the tractors when we were little. How grateful I am to have an amazing priesthood holding father who has always supported me in following my righteous dreams. How blessed i am to be born of amazing parents :]</span><br />

<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">this week was full of miracles. We were able to have lots of members from the ward come and help us out with lessons! We had more dinner appointments then usual, as we went to these appointments the members had actually invited their non member family to join! Investigators that we haven't been able to get a hold of in the past we finally had lessons with! We ar gaining more confidence and trust from the members and by doing so they want to help us and have us teach their family/friends! The way to gain their trust is to love them and serve them. We have many investigators who are so close and ready to be baptized! Pray that our investigators will progress towards baptism. <span style="font-size: large;"><b>Since I only have 10 weeks left I feel that I need to work harder so they can be baptized before I leave! But its a good rush feeling cause I never feel like I want a break. I want to just keep working haha.</b></span> I am so happy to be on a mission :] I'm excited for the return home too, its bitter sweet.

<span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;">Found out I will have a least one more transfer here in Houston with Hna B :] which will be good!

This past week we helped out a member in our ward who has cancer. Some of the other hermanas came with us to help clean up her home. We only spent 2 hours helping give service but you could tell by the look on the sisters face it made all the difference. All day she just sits in the home, alone fighting the pain her cancer is causing. She will have an oporation this week that can hopefully help cure her cancer. She is such a strong woman. </div>

<span style="font-size: 15px;">This past week we didnt have much luck with seeing our investigators. It was hard but slowly we started to see miracles. People that we talked to from outside started letting us into their homes. We focussed a lot this week on how we can help our investigators get to church. Instead of praying to have them come to church, I asked in my prayers what I can do to help more of hs chrildren keep this commandment, the sabbath day. Instead of sitting at the church forever for our investigators to show up, we sacrificed our miles to drive all the way back to the homes of our investigators to help them get to church. door after door and call after call it seemed like no one wanted to come and we made a great sacrifice for nothing. Last investigators door we tried, D and H, said that they could come :] </span><b><span style="font-size: x-large;">WOW I have never been so happy helping someone come to church haha. </span></b><span style="font-size: 15px;">Though we were all late by 20 minutes, we made it on time for the blessing of the sacrament. </span></div>

From these two experiences and more like them I am remined of one of my favorite scriptures <i><b><span style="font-size: large;">"The trial of your faith (is) more precious than gold" (1 peter 1:7). </span></b></i></div>

<span style="font-size: 15px;">Also, I restudied what I learned in the temple :] I know my heavenly father was really speaking to me in </span><b><i><span style="font-size: large;">D&C31:5 "thrust in your sickle with all your soul...and ye shall be laden with sheaves upon your back for the laborer is worthy of his hire. wherefore your family shall live".</span></i></b><span style="font-size: 15px;"> As I looked up the part that talks about that my family shall live it means that the lord will take care of their well being. This tender mercy of the lord gave me so much peace. Many times on my mission I worry for many members of my family!!! It does hurt my heart that I cannot be there when I know someone in my family is struggling. But </span><b><span style="font-size: x-large;">I know the lord will watch over and protect my family as I am doing his work.</span></b><span style="font-size: 15px;"> I know he never breaks a promise. I know this is his work and his church. I will keep saying that until the day I die, and then on into the eternities haha. I know how precious life is, its short compared to eternity. </span><b><span style="font-size: large;">Live, learn, and love. Forgive those who've wronged you. Live up to your potential. Let people know you're a member of the church of Jesus Christ of lattter day saints! and remember if anyone treats you poorly, or you feel like you cant handle anymore, remember your savior. and know that he's been there before. he knows how to help. </span></b><span style="font-size: 15px;">i love you all so much :]</span></div>

This week has been SO LONG and not very productive ha. But as I was going through the week I came across a poem that mom sent to me awhile back. <span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>The poem is called the starfish. </b></span><span style="font-size: 15px;">Its a short little poem but basically it explained how an old man is one morning walking along the beach. In the distance he sees a young man picking up starfish from along the shore and throwing them into the sea. The older man catches up the young man and asks what he is doing, the young man responds, "If the starfish stay out here on the shore they will die from the rays of the sun". The older man replied, "Do you think that you can save ALL of the starfish here along the seashore?" The young man bent down, picked up a starfish, tossed it into the sea and replied, "Well, I made a difference for that one."</span></div>

<br /></div>
<span style="font-size: 15px;">Being on the mission I can relate SO MUCH more to this story! At times I feel like I cannot do everything for everyone in my mission area and satan is telling me, "do you think your little efforts are really making a difference?" Some weeks, like this past week, I feel as though I made very little difference. But </span><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>when I look from the individuals perspective I hope and feel I made a difference for that one.</b></span><span style="font-size: 15px;"> This past week a member in my area found out she has cancer. Yesterday we visited her and I couldn't help but cry. She was the lady that a few months ago we spent her birthday together. The member, with tears in her eyes explained, "I know eventually in life, God gives us trials that strengthen our faith. Now this is my time, the trial of my faith". As I sat there looking at the sweet Hermana I couldn't help but think WHY this incredible lady, who did no wrong in her life, has to suffer so much! I'm sure Heavenly Father felt that same when he watched his perfect son suffer on the cross. I know trials are apart of this life, but only last a moment when looking at the situation with eternal eyes. </span><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>"God puts trials and allows adversity to come into the lives of the great ones". </b></span><span style="font-size: 15px;">(this comes from my patriarchal blessing, as it talks about how my children will have trials they will face, but then ends with that phrase which gives me hope and comfort that in the end all will be well).</span><br />
<span style="font-size: 15px;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: 15px;">I love you guys so much and am glad you're all doing well :] I'm excited if kels gets to come to kennedys farewell in Texas but PLEASE no surprises okay> I think I will honestly pass out if I see Kelsey before I get home haha. Maybe if you stay long enough though you could fly home with me Kels :] we will see. I've always planned on seeing you all at the airport. Bah I'm feeling sick talking about going home. Ha have good week :]</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">Last year we as a mission worked very hard bringing souls unto Christ. </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><b>Because of how hard we worked our mission president and wife celebrated our success by taking the whole mission to the temple. Wow it was an incredible experience that I will cherish through out my life. </b></span><span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 22px;">Because</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"> our mission is so big they made groups of 4 and had each of us go on different days of the week. All the Hermanas went and did a session at the same time. And the temple president (president Crane) did the session! I was actually the first one to go into the celestial room and there was Sister Ashton the temple presidents wife waiting to great all the missionaries into the room :] after the session they took us to a room where our mission president AND temple president spoke to us and answered questions for us while we were in the temple. I had an amazing experience while there that I want to share with you. Here is one paragraph of what I wrote to my mission president,</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; line-height: 21px;">

<span style="background-color: #e7e6e2; color: #666666; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; line-height: 16.899999618530273px;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">" Wow I learned so much but I feel impressed to share one specific experience that I had that opened my eyes. Before the session started I opened up the bible and started reading in </span><b style="font-size: 13px;"><i>Matthew 20:8</i></b><span style="font-size: x-small;"> and this phrase stuck out to me,</span><i><b> <span style="font-size: large;">"Call the labourers, and give them their hire"</span><span style="font-size: x-small;">.</span></b></i><span style="font-size: x-small;"> For some reason this phrase wouldn't leave my mind so I made a mental note to remember where this scripture was and look it up during a personal study. Then after the session while you were speaking you read the scripture </span><i><b><span style="font-size: x-small;">D&C 31:5 which reads, </span><span style="font-size: large;">"Therefore, thrust in your sickle with all your soul, and your sins are forgiven you, and you shall be laden with sheaves upon your back, for the laborer is worthy of his hire. Wherefore, your family shall live".</span> </b></i><span style="font-size: x-small;">When I heard you share this scripture wow I had a reconfirmation that I do have a father in heaven who knows me and leads me through out my life and in what i do. Many times in my life I do not notice his hands guiding me with where to go or what to read but from that experience in the temple I know, without a doubt that there is a God. And he is my father. I went home and for the past few days have been striving to study these scriptures to understand what my father in heaven is trying to tell me."</span></span></div>
<div style="font-size: 15px;">

When I heard this it broke my heart, I know I was sent here to the area to help her and to hear she wants to wait longer after all the studies and prayers and fasts ive done for her it was hard to hear. But I know that as for me as a missionary I have done all I should and could to help her. She is an amazing person and has no doubts.,</span></div>
<div style="font-size: 15px;">
<span style="background-color: #e7e6e2; color: #666666; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 16.899999618530273px;"><br /></span></div>

Remember, your actions do not just effect you, they effect SO MANY PEOPLE!!!!! </b></span><span style="background-color: #e7e6e2; color: #666666; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 16.899999618530273px;">We are blessed and protected when we live gods commantments, when we dont we become miserable, wether today, in a couple years, maybe not until heaven. WE must keep all the commandments of God to be happy and to return to him. I know this is the true gospel of jesus christ. I know he lives. This is his church. </span></div>

This week was awesome! Hna B and I have been helping our recent converts with family history so they can take names to the temple. When we had a zone conference with the mission president he talked about how we need to help people with their family history, which is what my comp and i were already doing! Last week the ward had a temple trip set for the youth and recent converts to go to , we had 2 recent converts and made it our goal to get them to the temple! With L and his family we went to their home, his mom E said they were trying so hard to get info about SOMEONE but found nothing. I told them, <b><span style="font-size: x-large;">"Well I know there is power in prayer. If we pray with faith that we will find an ancestor of yours to take to the temple the Lord will help us!".</span></b> After about 2 hours we found the info of a grandfather that the F family was able to take to the temple :D J the other recent convert also went to the temple. We watched them do temple baptisms, it was an incredible expereince. To see them be baptized is one thing, but to see them THEN go to the temple is incredible. I want to help EVERYONE not just be baptized but go to the temple. That is the place were testimonies are strengthened. On Sunday J actually stood infront of the class and bore his testimony about bapstims for the dead and his experience in the temple :] it was so awesome! </div>

This week has been good! We were able to help the spanish stake out with their stake primary program which was on temples. Each ward was asked to make a temple, in one of the pictures you can see our ward's primary kids. during mutual ALL the primary came and painted boxes for the temple!!! It was so cute and the temples were beautiful! They had the Temple President come and speak to the chidlren. Wow the spirit was so strong. He walked around looking at all the temples and was so taken back, it was so sweet. <b><span style="font-size: x-large;">The Houston TX Temple President got emotional while talking to the children and promised them if they would just go to the temple and touch the temple wall they will receive the feeling that it is the house of God.</span></b> During the activity I got to see all my other member friend from the different wards!!! I have been so blessed to have served in other wards but that they are all apart of the same stake :]</div>

I remember how touched I was to hear the sweet words of this song and from then on I desired to know the meaning of the scripture. In 3 nephi the savior brings this phrase up to the nephites,<i> "consider the lillies, how they grow, how they toil not nor do they spin".</i> The savior goes on to say <i>"if god so clothe the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is cast into the oven, even so will he clothe you, if ye are not of little faith. ..for your heavenly father knoweth that ye have need of all these things" (3 nephi 13:28-33).</i></span><br />

So some got switched to english speaking. I am still spanish. Getting a new companion we realized we didnt have much food. We seriously only had cereal, milk, and bread and some cheese and ham. I felt so bad for my new comp and I barely had any other money to go buy fast food cause its too expensive. So I prayed really simply to God that he would provide food for us. After that prayer we were fed twice that day and the next days after. </span></span><b style="color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: xx-large; line-height: 21px;">I know with all my heart the Lord takes care of his servants. </b><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 21px;">I am so grateful for him and the faith I have in him to see many miracles in the lives of others and in my own life.</span></span></div>

This week was a lot of fun! We had the AWESOME opportunity to go serve at the houston food bank with all the youth in the stake. <b><span style="font-size: x-large;">Hna W and </span></b><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>I got special permission and were the only missionaries who went to help :]</b></span> we had our investigators come and help! it was so fun. Its amazing the service that goes on in places like that. It touched my heart knowing we were bagging up food for chidlren who had none. With our group and another we packaged up 5700 dinner bags for those who need food. There was a statistic that said 94% of people who are starving are not homeless people. That shocked me. I want to strive to do more service for others, especially children who dont put themselves in those situations. I have a great love for children.</div>

<span style="font-size: 16px;">Also this week we went to visit a member couple from the church. The husband was in ICU and he looked so bad. The wife is incredible, her husband has been in the hospital since january on dialisis and she has slept over at the hospital everynight, never leaving his side. Oh wow she is an amzing woman. 3 days after that her husband passed away. Oh it hurt my heart seeing a couple who had been together for so long be seperated. He just died this week and after 3 months of helping her husband she was able to go to church this sunday, easter sunday. I know she felt loved with ALL the members welcoming her back. </span></div>

<b><span style="font-size: x-large;">This week Hna W is leaving me:[ aww I hate when good times have to end!!! </span></b>I love her with all my heart.

She reminded me of moments I've spent with my sister Kelsey :] I love you guys so much and am glad you are all doing well :]</div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; line-height: 22px;">I was able to go to the temple this morning and I loved it :] one thing I took from it is the importance of reading our scriptures. I have gained so much knowlegde from just simply reading daily in the scriptures. I know its such a primary thing to say "read them daily" but WOW have I gained a strong testimony about opening the scriptures and READING them. I have found so many answers in them, I receive so much mroe guidance and direction in my life by the knowledge I've gained from people in the scriptures. </span><br />

Part of last week I was in a different area on exchanges so I had no idea what was going on here in my area for 2 days! But things are going well we are just trying to find new people to teach. We keep going on the bus to talk to people and see if anyone is interested. I am doing good, am happy and love my area and my companion. I'm grateful for this time I have to serve a mission and figure out more about my life and who I am and who I am capable of becoming. i know the Lord has a plan for me and even if i dont know what it is right now I have full trust in him that he will guide me to happiness. I know as we lean on him and trust in him, in the end we will have looked back on our lives and be grateful for following his guidance. I love you and hope you have a happy easter :]</div>

<span style="font-size: 15px;">I am so grateful to be a missioanry. Of course during the hard times I just want to give up haha but I am so grateful for this time I have on my mission. I've changed a lot and am more prepared to be a wife and a mom who is really faithful in the gospel. Its funny, when the age changed i just thought of it one sided, that the world is ready for more missionaries!!! But now I'm figuring out that its also another way...</span><b><span style="font-size: x-large;">the next future generation needs REALLY faithful parents to raise them up </span></b><span style="font-size: 15px;">as the world become more wicked and we draw more closer to the second coming. I LOVE the scriptures and seriously read them whenevr I get the chance. This gospel changes lives, its amazing to see that transformation in other but more in yourself. I could encourage you all to read the conference talks again when they come out!!! i hope i can get a copy of one soon haha. Also, super random but while watching the mormon messages after conference I saw one about </span><b><span style="font-size: x-large;">a flight nurse</span></b><span style="font-size: 15px;">.....i had a good feeling and I think that is an answer to my question of what i should do after my mission...:] haha I love you all so much and hope all is well :]</span></div>
