Hola! Hermosillo es Hermoso.


For those of you who are asking my new area is called Balderrama and its ridiculously close to the temple but in another zone than the temple, so I don't see it. Ever. Nah, that's a lie, we had to go this past week for capacitación and the stake center there is pegado al templo. But, normally, no I don't see the temple. 

My new ward is great, there a lot of members in it that work in the temple, as in actually making money, and many who serve as temple workers so that's actually really cool. My Companion's name is Hermana Castro, she's from Morelos, Mexico and she's super ridiculously awesome. 

This past week I had the opportunity to witness a miracle here, as our hermano Jaimie decided to enter the waters of baptism. He is the brother of a family where evveryone excet he and his father are members and has taken the missionary discussions for years, but finally, with the influence of the spirit, and the temple president (who he works for and is very good friends with) hedecided friday night to be baptized and was able to reaize this ordinance WEdnesday. It wasa really goof way to celebrate Halloween hahaha. I don't have pictures, sorry. His sister has them and she hasn't been able to send them to us. It was kind of great way to strart the transfer, with all the excitement and ethusiasm i the world to work!

Its really different to be in a city and not a pueblito and this area, at least to me and sin bicis, is huge! But it's good, and I like it here. The areas can change but what you do asa missioanry, your calling and your purpose, never changes. 

I love you all,

Con mi amor eterno,
Hermana Rawlings

P.S: Look who I found! Hermana Rubio, Hermana Gonzalez, and Hermana Castro. (and actualyl hermana Vasquez and Hemana Rumiche too but they had to leave early)

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...
