Hola!! Nothing too new or exciting happened this week. "running into" sage at the temple this morning was the beeeest. It was sooooo goood talking to someone from the outside world hahaha. uuummmm lets see. we get our flight plans today I am SO excited!! in just over a week I'll be in Argentina! crazzy! We had our last TRC investigator appointment yesterday. It was proabably one of the best lessons weve taught. We started by showing A Savior is Born video ( its on mormon.org I highhhlyyyyy recomend it, soo good) and then we talked about Christ the whole time and how we can genuinally be happier in this life because of our Savior. I loove the scripture John 14:28. If we truly loved the Savior we would rejoice!! It is soo true. One of the main reasons we are down on this earth to have JOY!! So we just talked about how we can truly be happy because of the Savior and his atoning sacrifice for us. We ended with all of our testimonies and it was sooo precious Rosi started crying. The spirit was so strong it was honestly so rewarding. We asked Hermano Barret to take a picture of us and send it to mom and I guess he sent it to the wrong number (oopsies:) hahahah so some random person in Orange County has received a picture of some random missionaries :)) So it was heartttbreaking saying bye to Ammon and Lauren this week. I feel soo extremely blessed to have not only been in the MTC the same time as them,but I was in the same zone as lauren, and mine and Ammons zones did practically everything together. It was a fun 4 weeks with them. I know they are killing it out in the field! Honestly this week wasn't too different from the rest. (no embarrassing things happened to me this week haha) The spirit is great, the spanish is improving, I feel like my relationship with my Savior is continually being strengthened as well. I am honestly soooo excited for Christmas this year. The Savior is the greatest gift we can ever ask for and I feel so honored that I am representing Him. It will be a great Christmas focusing soely on bringing others unto Christ. Well, I love you all!
