sister missionary conference

This week has been great!

First of all, on thursday we had a special conference with all of the Sister missionaries in the whole mission. At first it was one of the most awkward moments of my mission for me and my companion. haha we dont really understand sister missionarys very well. But the tyuith is that it was one of the most amazing capacitation meetings that I have ever had in the mission, and I gained a lot of respect for the sister missionaries that are serving. Now we have 28 sisters in the mission, but we expect more than 68 of them in the next three monthes! this is something that has been on president and our minds for a while, because we need to figgure out how to reorganize the mission in order to adjust to this historical change. Also, frequently there are problems with sister missionaries because we have discovered that a lot of them have a certian image in their minds when thewy arrive about what the mission is like (EFY part 2, or even the comfort of the missionary work in the United States), but then they get here and realize that 1. Uruguay is not a first world contry 2. walking is not an option but a necessity - no cars  3. carpet does not exixt here 4. Ice cream is rare... and the list goes on. This, to some sisters, causes some emotional problems, and a lot of them have a hard time adjusting. So, this meeting was really good to help the sisters that we have now prepare themselves for the huge avalanch of sister missionaries that are coming, and be ready to train them and help them adjust. It was a very inspired meeting, and I am so impressed by the spirituality and skill of the sister missionaries. I am really excited to see the amazing changes that are to come in the mission. 

A couple days ago a couple ladies came to the church, and asked if we could visit them because they were looking for God in their lives. MIRICLE! Yesterday we were able to have our first lession with them, and it was one of the mist spiritual first lessons that I have ever had. Patricia and her 2 kids accepted the Gospel of Jesus christ and the baptismal commitment. They have been super prepared to recieve it in their lives. We are so grateful to God for this blessing, especially because Cesar and Alejandra are getting baptized tonight at 6:00, and we are desperate for more investigadors to teach after their baptism. 

Thank you all for your prayres and support and emails. I love you all!
