Hola mi familia!
How
is everyone doing?! I hope everyone had a great week. I sure do love
you all and pray from you daily. This past week has been a fun one for
me and i will tell you why, I HAVE AMAZING COMPANIONS! They are
seriously such amazing missionaries and i am so blessed to work beside
them. This week went by so fast for us! Tuesday we had interview with
President Jergensen, he is such an inspired mission President. I am so
very thankful to be serving in Iowa with him as my mission President and
his sweet wife, Sister Jergensen. They are such a strength to me! It
is amazing that even though I am away from the comfort of home and
family and friends, i feel like i am home here as well. I am so very
blessed!
This past weekend, we went to Ottumwa to do exchanges
with the Hermanas that are assigned there. BOY! was that drive pretty!
We saw TONZZZ of rolling hills of CORN! haha! It was so crazy to see.
And we saw all these cute little barns and horses and dogs... it was
really fun because i have been in the city my whole mission and to see
farm land and open spaces... it was great. I wanted to go frolicking
SOOOO BAD! But we had to get to Ottumwa. One day i will go frolicking
through the fields, it is officially on my bucket list. I seriously
love it here!!! Ok, question for you... who is from Ottumwa on NASH or
is it MASH?!?! I cannot remember. 
So this past week was awesome with teaching people! We
went to go teach on of our investigators and he lives in this house that
has been divided up into apartments (like the bedrooms are the
"apartments", but they all share the same bathroom and kitchen) that is
how Latinos do it! I love it! So anyways, he wasnt there so we went to
ask all the guys that were outside if we could share a message with
them. There was about 7 grown men ranging from 20 to about 50ish i would
say. We call them "Los Hombres" haha! we love all of them, they are so
great. Anyways, we sat down on this table they have outside and we all
had a discussion with them. Our branch mission leader was there with us
to so we felt extra confident being with a bunch of men... haha! but
anyways, it was so cool to hear all of there different beliefs and their
stories about how they have come to know Christ. Hermano Santiago, our
branch mission leader, bore such a powerful testimony about the Book of
Mormon and they if they would read it, they will receive an answer, by
the power of the Holy Ghost that it is true! It was so cool! A couple of
them accepted the invitation to read the Book of Mormon!!!! SO COOL!
I am so very thankful for the Book of Mormon. These
last couple of days i have been studying about the Atonement of Jesus
Christ and I have been learning so much about it because of the Book of
Mormon. i would like to invite you all to, while you are reading the
Book of Mormon to see the changing and enabling power that comes from
the Atonement.
I know that the Book of Mormon is true! I know that
this is Christ true Church! I know that families are forever and that
the grave is not the end! I love you all and i am so very thankful for
your letters and prayers!!! I hope you have a great week!
XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO
Love, Hermana Wadsworth
