Cambios; Hard is Good

Hermana Isabel and Hermana Martinas Baptism

Okay, I'm not going to lie this week was really hard. Changing companions was a lot harder than I had imagined. It's like leaving your family all over again. 

But, this week was alright, lots of changes but change is good, right? I met my new companion Hermana Soares, she is from Brasil. She is a really great missionary and she has been out for 9 months.

This week we basically were just getting Hermana Soares settled in. We had the opportunity to watch some of the Funeral of President Monson. It was in Spanish and here it's weird because they play the Spanish over the english so I can hear the English and Spanish and I get really lost and confused a lot haha. But I'm sure the service was amazing. 

We had the baptism of 2 of our investigators Hermana Isabel and her daughter Hermana Martina. It was super awesome and the spirit was really strong. We had 2 investigators come and I know they felt that this is the true church and that they want to be apart of it.
Hard is Good. Hard makes us stronger, humbles us, and gives us a chance to prove ourselves. This change in Companions has been really hard for me but hard is good. Hard is a part of the gospel plan. Hard is constant and we choose how we can react to it. I knew there would be hard times in the mission but I am choosing to be happy. Like my Dad always says "Choose to be Happy" I'm so grateful for the knowledge that our Heavenly Father wants the best for us and he wants us to grow through hard times. 

"May we ever choose the harder right instead of the easier wrong." -President Monson

Me and Hermana Lyons, I miss her!
