BIG HUGE CAMBIOS :D :D :D - Feb 11, 2019

As of today Jessica has a new email address.  It is jessica.rowe@missionary.org.  She will still have access to the ldsmail.net address throughout her mission.  

Welcome to my week! It´s been crazy with transfers and everything, but I´m SO excited for this next week because of my transfer...

The work here in Ingavi is getting better. We are getting a lot better at talking to more people in the streets so that we have more new investigators. BUT! Sadly that doesn{t affect their agency, but we do all we can! The people in Ingavi aren´t that humble, but every once in a while you can find somebody ;) There is a new investigator that we found last week named Jhordan, and he is super cool! We were contacting in a park when we saw him sitting reading a book, and we felt like we should go talk to him, so we went and he is super interested about learning about the church! He likes to read, so we invited him to start reading the Book of Mormon, and he ACTUALLY started reading it!!! That actually really doesn´t happen almost ever, so we were super excited about it. Sadly I won´t be able to see his progress (you´ll find out why in a sec), but if he gets baptized i will be there :) 

We got our cambios last night!!! AAAHHHHHH I´m so excited. Ok ok drum roll please..... (*drum rolls*) I´m going to be a Sister Training Leader in the area called Cala Cala!! AAHHHH I´m super super excited!!!!  I don´t know how many of you remember this, but Cala Cala is the area where I got to stay for a week when I was waiting to go to Sucre!! (My first week in the field!!) I am VERY excited. VERY haha. My comp is Hermana Curtis, and she is from Utah :D YAY my first north american comp!!! I´m so excited. I hope this email is dripping with excitement because that is really how I feel. :D :D :D

This week wasn´t the best of weeks... I was sick for a few days so that made things hard, but I´m all better now :) This week has been a hard week for our companionship, but I feel like we are leaving it in a good place today. I really have learned so much from Hna Muñoz. She has helped me so much to be a more charitable person, to not judge, and to not criticize. I think the reason it´s been hard to be with her because she really has a hard time trusting in people, and she has chosen to trust a little more in others than in me. I´m excited to be with someone a little more open :) (But I will miss her, she loves to laugh which has been fun. I feel bad, I feel like I´ve painted her in a really bad light, she really is great, just that sometimes I get frustrated at the bad things and forget to mention all the good things that are happening)

We had the Zone Conference this week which was awesome. Pte Montoya knows what he´s talking about. The Old Testament is super cool.



Having matching dresses and ties made for zone conference is a thing in her mission.  


This week I´ve been trying to be better at reading Come, Follow Me. It was cool to read about Christ´s baptism this past week (I think that´s where we´re at, right?). I´m also reading the Book of Mormon at the same time, and trying to study for investigators. There´s not time to study it all every day, even though we get a whole hour every day! That is probably one of the quickest hours that I have every day. I love studying the scriptures! I learn so many things each time. I know that as we read the scriptures with a prayer in our hearts, the Lord will reveal His will for us through the scriptures. He loves us. :) 

That´s been my week! Next week I´ll let you all know how Cala Cala is!!! 

Hope you all are enjoying the snow, we´ve had lots of rain, and hot weather ;)
