Hey family!!!
Well, surprise surprise I’m now here in Osorno, sector Rahue
Alto! To be honest, I never wanted to go
to Osorno but now that I’m here I absolutely LOVE IT!! This is the best sector
I’ve ever been in!! The ward is awesome, and they work super well with the
missionaries!! Actually, more than 100 people assist church (that is super rare
for here)! It’s so fun!! My new comp is
Hermana Farias from Brazil! She’s so cute. I love her. We are actually from the
same group. She has only been here one transfer, and our sector is actually
two. But it got combined into one. So,
we have lots of work to do which is awesome and we both get lost hahahah. I stayed being hermana lider so tomorrow we
have the leadership conference which I’m excited for (and I don’t have to fly
again, yay). We are over 10
hermanas. Still not too many, but a lot
more than Coyhaique! So we will be
having intercambios every week now. It’s
going to make the time go by way too fast.
Anyway, I love it here and I’m so excited for this next cambio!!! WE ARE WORKING SO HARD!! I feel like I’m in
my training again! I LOVE IT!! Honestly
at the end of everyday, we crash in bed.
There is so much to do and we are learning a lot!!
This morning in my personal study I was reading a talk and
really loved what it said and felt like I should share it in my email to you
guys! Its talking to the young women but it applies to everyone!
"Your most important friendships should be with your
own brothers and sisters and with your father and mother. Love your family. Be loyal to them. Have a genuine concern for your brothers and
sisters. Help carry their
load."--Ezra Taft Benson. I LOVE
YOU FAMILY!! Thanks for being my best
friends. Keep loving and helping each
other!!! I know God puts us with our
families for a reason!
The other thing I loved was this
"Young women, the Book of Mormon will change your
life. It will fortify you against the
evils of our day. It will bring a spirituality into your life that no other
book will. It will be the most important
book you will read in preparation for life’s challenges. A young woman who knows and loves the Book of
Mormon, who has read it several times, who has an abiding testimony of its
truthfulness, and who applies its teachings will be able to stand against the
wiles of the devil and will be a mighty tool in the hands of the Lord."
--Ezra Taft Benson
The Book of Mormon has the words of Christ and helps us know
Him!! Keep reading it, loving it, and
learning from it everyday! Thanks for
always holding family scripture study.
I’m so grateful for a family who loves the gospel and tries to follow
everything the Savior asks us to do!! I love you!! Have a great week!!
--Hermana West
