HAPPY DECEMBER

Hello fam and friends!!!!

This week was fast, in case you're wondering. I never know how to start these emails haha.

On Tuesday we had our final intercambios, I was with Hna Ferguson in my area, and it went great! Way better than last time. I know my area better and am more comfortable with the mission life, I guess. Hna Ferguson goes home this transfer so that's super sad. I'm gonna miss her!

You'll never guess it. I went to Lima this week AGAIN, hahaha. This time for migraciones (which took literally an hour) and then for a dermatologist appointment and then the TEMPLE!! It was a pretty good day. Minus the 2 back to back bus rides to and from Ayacucho but I'm still alive. 

I'm so happy it's December! my favorite time of year! we've been rocking Christmas music nonstop and I put up a little tree my mom sent me. super cute.

I want to share a little thought about the Holy Ghost with you all. I have read chapter 4 of Preach My Gospel recently and I just love this chapter. It's truly enlightening. Preach My Gospel is a manual we use to learn and teach the Gospel. It's amazing. Something I learned from this chapter is that the Holy Ghost needs to be present in order to teach. I knew this, but I just wanted to share my thoughts. I know that when we honestly and humbly seek to know the truth, we will feel the Holy Ghost testify the truth of it to us. The Holy Ghost testifies in many different forms, feelings of peace, happiness, joy, etc. It could be a tingling throughout your body or an overwhelming feeling of warmth. I also cry, but that's not for everyone. I don't really know where I'm going with this, but felt impressed to invite you to pray about this church, or about a certain trial or principle, with true intent and a humble heart, and your loving Father in Heaven will manifest the truth of it unto you through the Holy Ghost. 

I love you all so much!
