¡hola y'all!!!!
How is everyone doing this week?? So well I hope:) this week has honestly been sooo so fun, I love this place and these people and truly being a missionary is the best ever. I don't have a ton of time (who's surprised) so I'll just make a little list guy of what happened here in socal:)
☆we had zone conference!! And after lunch we all played knockout so that was super fun. I LOVE President and Sister Platt with my whole heart also, it was the best to get to see them again and talk with them and hear their wise words of wisdom. And a few of us hermanas accidentally matched with the cheetah print hahah I love themmm
☆we found a new amigo named Walter! He's super cool, super humble, and super ready for this beautiful gospel we have to share. Please pray for him!!
☆on wednesday we had a little going away drive by party for our buddy Elder hunter, it was too fun
☆on Thursday we had SUCH and amazing lesson with Genesis and she is SO excited for her baptism coming up soon!! She decided to postpone it a little bit bc she wants her dad and sister to learn as well!! That's where the mucha fe part comes in bc they aren't super excited to hear about our church or that she's wanting to be baptized, so pls pls PLS keep those three in your prays as well!!
☆on spooky day Halloween we got to help set up a little church party, and then we went back to help serve food at the party for a few hours. It was a blast. Our amigo Ruben came with his whole family!! And we matched again with the cheetah (but like on purpose this time) yeehaw!!
Also okay, this week I read 1 Nephi 13, and whoa. Y'all have to read this one. It's a little bit intense at first, but it's soooo good bc it literally just explains so clearly that the Book of Mormon and the Bible support each other, and it explains why they're both necessary. In verse 40 he says, "And the angel spake unto me, saying: These last records, which thou hast seen among the Gentiles, shall establish the truth of the first, which are of the twelve apostles of the Lamb, and shall make known the plain and precious things which have been taken away from them; and shall make known to all kindreds, tongues, and people, that the Lamb of God is the Son of the Eternal Father, and the Savior of the world; and that all men must come unto him, or they cannot be saved." So the "last records" (which make up the Book of Mormon) are here to establish the truth of the first (the Bible) and both are to testify of Jesus Christ!! It's just so amazing bc it was written almost 600 years before Christ was even born, so it's pure revelation given to Nephi for us to read and learn today!! God really does know what He's doing up there with His whole timeline. It's beautiful honestly.
Okay pues I love y'all soooo much and I'm so v grateful for each of you!! Que tengan una BONITA semana!!
Con amor,
Hermana Brayton:)
