Why would we ever want life to be easy?

So things all hit me at once. Nairne, companion, sector, EVERYTHING. You would think God would span out the trials, but why would we ever want life to be easy right?
 
This week we saw a TON of progress out here in this wonderful sector. All sorts of new investigators and all sorts of people coming out of the woodwork and to the church.
 
Learning a lot about how God wants us to be diligent in spite of out situations. Lots of fun out here. I love the fact that there are so many blessings that come when we are diligent even though it is very hard.
 
Got the packages and they are LEGIT. I was so happy. And I gave your Christmas tree to a newly married couple who don't have any tree so it was put to good use thank you so much for your love and detail-oriented mind. My companion was blown away by your packages.
                                                          
 
Love you lots!

Chopped

So to start out, I miss you all! I feel like I am starting the mission all over again because I am getting to know the sector, it's hot, and in the city again.
Crazy.
 
Got headlice and had to chop off my hair. Had the straight up worst week of my life that all I could do was laugh.
 
Here is a shout out to all the women that read this blog. If you don't believe in yourselves in this moment, I invite you to start too. We are the rising generations of mothers that will prepare our children for the second coming of Jesus Christ. We cannot afford to feel sorry for ourselves nor think that we cannot accomplish miracles because we aren't perfect. This is just ridiculous. We need to suck it up. That is my rant. If there are any questions, see Moses 6:31-34.
 
Love you and will talk to you the 26th of December.

Whitewash

This week was good. A little weird but hey that is life. Lots of tears from los montinos ( people from el Monte) It was good to see that they could feel my love. I really did love them a lot and a piece of my heart will always be in EL Monte.
 
 
I am now going to train again in a whitewash which is where I go in with a brand new companion squeaky clean from the CCM and then I also get a brand new sector to start from zero because we don't know anyone or anything. :) It twill be very character building. I am excited nervous and ready to mix it up a little bit :)
 
I have the privilege of being a missionary and going to the temple a LOT. I have gone almost every month of my mission. Crazy. Many missionaries only go once.  God knows I need the strength. ;)
 
I love all of you and I think it is awesome how Nairne is at home for all the holidays :)
 
Love,
