Move, Cold, New, and Old

Hello fam!!!!!!

So this week has been a tough but good week. The weather has been minnesota-i with 90s monday till weds and now we are in the 50´s and at night in the 40´s. It is crazy. But as the title does indicate we MOVED!!!! there is a new rule that says that one companionship to one pension. so we found a new house which is two small rooms and a bathroom. we can only use one room now because the other is still occupied but its ok. kinda bunched up but home is where the heart is all we always say. 

We have been struggling with finding new people to teach and people who want to progress but with working hard and much prayer our prayers have been answered!! Yesterday we found some awesome new people to teach and most of them was because a member came up to us and said ¨i want to go visit my brother with you guys can you come find me at 2 by gical¨ YESSSSSSS!!!!!! really without members missionary work is much harder with them its 100% better amazing!!!! 

so we have been preparing as a mission for the visit of Pres. Arnold of the 70. we have a conference with him tomorrow and its gonna be amazing!!! i cant wait. The last week i have been really trying to focus on the savior. (pres arnold asked us to study the atonement) and i wanted to do it for myself. i also have started reading the new testament to finish all of the standard works . Really the life of the savior is full of service. he serves all of those around him its amazing. we took some of that into an example this last week. we were walking down a street where we are mostly met with negative words and rejections and we saw a grandma and her daughter cleaning up after a funeral service. we decided to help them out a bit and clean up with them. it only took 20min but we were able to find from them new people to talk to, and people in that area have become more receptive to us.

not only service is important but also patience and determination. without those two things missionary work is really hard. there are always a couple negative things here and there. but if there are 19 rejections it doesnt matter because we found 1 person who is prepared to receive the gospel of Jesus Christ

i love this gospel with all of my heart. i cant wait to start reading Jesus the Chris, by Talmedge, im trying to find one in english but from what ive read in spanish it is amazing. i love this gospel so much it has helped me grow tremendously.

love you all and pray for you
best wishes
