LIGHT THE WORLD LETS GOOOO



Hi everyone!

I'm stayign here in Balderrama with Hermana whcih i´'m super excited for because she rocks and so does balderrama, or how our district has taken to callign it, Bald Rama. (In our district of Jard-nes (pronounced Hardnes), Big Cactus, and Bald Rama). 

We saw the giganticly huge miracle of watchign Hermanao Ignacio descend into the waters of baptism whcih was greta becuase there were so. many. obstacles. this entrie week. Satan was really giving it all he got. First they couldn't get divorced because there weren't judges and then the money to pay fo the dicvorce got lost, and then they coudn't get amrried becasue there weren't any judges becasue of the holidays, and then they coudl not without any cremony but not until this next Wednesday and then finally, fially, they got married Friday morning. WOOHOOO! It was a wild ride, and even wilder becasue since Friday is his only day off of the week because he wroks in the hospital, he got baptized that same day!! It was quite the week emotionally but it literally only was able to happen becasue didn't give up and we didn't take no for an answer becasue God always does his part in the process when we pray with faith (and we were definitely praying), but it's often us who give up or don't do our part of just decide not to follow God's will at the end of it all, but I know with all my heart that He does place the path and the means before us, even if we have to hurdle a fewt¿ things to get there, and it doesn't mena thepath He puts befoer us will be easy or that we don't have to sacrifice to follow it, but if it is HIS will ad a just desire, that way to accomplish it is there. The words of 1 Nefi 3:7 are SO TRUE! 

ALSO, WE LIT UP THE WORLD (OR ATLEAST HERMOSILLO) THIS PAST SATURDAY! And it was a super cool experience to be able to participate. The misisoanries were tasked with greetign everyine and contacting anyone who was not member and visiting, ad it was super cool to talk to everyone and see just how many people where open to listen to the messgae we had to share after beign invited byt their friends to the event, there was proabaly some 800+ peopel there, it was crazy!! 

So, light the world folks and invite ALL to come unto Christ pbecause its Christmas and it's the tiem of year most apt to do it. 

COn mi amor eterno,
Hermana 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...
