Latino District Awaits


Hola everyone! 

So, since the first week at the MTC for my new district, no one has P-day, they gave us three hours this morning to have just enough time to pack, do laundry, clean the apartment before we move out, to join my new district and then email. 

Considering we had P-day all of basically three days ago, I don't have much to report on, but I have learned some really cool things this week. 

I've been reading through the Book of Mormon on Sundays. Just general reading and studying since the rest of the week I'm focused on studying so I can teach our investigators better so therefore, I appointed Sunday study to be the day when I just read for the sake of reading and learning. And I've been reading through 3 Nephi this week and just remembering how amazing of a book it is because out of all the people and prophets and stories in the book, we often forget that Christ is the most important person that we can read about in the Book of Mormon. So, I was reading when Christ descends from Heaven in chapter 10-11 ish and I realized that He appeared at the temple there in the land of Zarahemla. And it was kind of a "well of course!" moment for me, but I had never picked up on that before. 

So, Hermana Flinders and I are in the same district, which is a huge relief to both of us that at least we have someone who speaks English fluently to hold onto when things get a little rough and we don't know what our companions are saying. 

We also said goodbye to our district today, which was really, really sad because they're awesome. But, on the bright side, we finally took a district picture! 

Love Sister Rawlings

Burning Spiritually and Physically!

Didn't you just LOVE conference? I feel like I have gotten much more out of General Coonference here in my time as a missionary. It's literally such a highlight and a spiritual fest. I think my favorite talks were from Jeffrey R. Holland, Dieter F. Uchtdorf, Russel M. Nelson, and actually, I can't choose, just all of them. I love what Elder Uchtdorf shared about how to share the gospel, step by step. I also love what was taught about the cvonnection between love and ministering, and I absolutely loved the emphasis on repentace and the Atoning power of Jesus Christ.  Thanks to the goodness of the Bishop, we actually had the opportunity to watch in English usign the computer in the Bishop's office and it was so great to hear the voices of the Apostles and The prophet. It's honestly just so much better when you can actually hear their voice with the intonation and all of that. An boy, was that fun. We might have taken over the office for a short while...
