Wooowww Conference weekend was sick! Lots of themes I think. Prayers, Plan of Salvation and Repentance. I really really loved lots of talks. Elder Uchtdorfs talk in the Priesthood Session was one that just made me really happy. haha and Elder Renlunds talk about the firecracker going off was funny. When he said he felt bad and didn't partake of the sacrament, I was thinking about all the CRAZIER and MORE INSANE THINGS I did with fireworks hahaha!!! If he felt bad about that I definelty need to change! haha
So we got transfer calls last night and I will be staying but my comp Elder Zamora will be leaving to Fajardo. I will be getting a new comp and he is Elder Herrera de Mexico. We are good friends also. I don't think I will have any problem with companions in my mission cause I have gotten along well and met almost all the missionaries.
So I think I told you about the Lady we found the other week. Well she has been really cool and has potential. She is very dedicated to her church but invited us in. We had a great lesson about the Restoration and the Book of Mormon. We came back to see her another day and she has been reading sooo much and actually understands the importance of the Book of Mormon. She was telling her son about us and he was against it but she was telling him that "Its not like I'm gonna go and be Mormon but these Mormons also believe in the Second Coming of Jesus Christ and that the other book that they have isn't replacing the Bible but its more scripture about Jesus Christ". She has been asking us to pray for her so that she may know if this really is true and that God can give her an Answer. If you can all Put Ester M. in your prayers that she can recieve and answer from God that would help alot. You can all do a little bit of Missionary work and Pray to help her.
General Conference is just a spiritual boost and it just gives us all another confirmation that its all true...not just because most of us all grew up learning it all our lives but the spiritual confirmation is the key we recieve tells us that its true. As I was watching conference I felt so happy that I have had this time to serve here in Puerto Rico. I wouldnt want it any other way. Time is flying by sooo fast and I'm kinda nervous to come home!
Love you all!!
