Week 26 a Baptism

 Jade had a wonderful week.  She told us of her baptism on the weekend.  Her "mom" had found and baptized this couple's son. Then when she got to her new area she had found the couple and baptized them.  Then the son was able to baptize his parents. Such a cool story. She was able to FT with Hermana Earl and she was able to be a part of the baptism.  Jade said the spirit was strong and they had a wonderful time.  She said as they were out street contacting this week they came across a preacher and he was bible bashing with them.  They said they needed to leave, the spirit does not work when you are doing that.  They had the best lesson ever with a sister. She said the spirit was so strong they were all crying at the end.  She said teaching through the spirit is so real.  She was making pancakes again for the week to eat. She said it is hard to find good fruit right now but she did find some mango's to have.  She was sad they had gone to get empenadas to eat and the others got one but when it got to her turn they closed the store so she did not get one. She was very sad. She was going home to eat her mango.  I told her to cut it up and put it on her pancake.  They have been without water for 3 days which is not good. The other sisters forgot to meet the man who brings it so they have not had water to drink. I told her to go buy some water, so they did. Not good to be dehydrated in heat. Sounds like they are having lots of fun still together and making the most of it.

Sep 11th Knows why she is there

Image
 We had a good chat with jade she told us that she knows why she was sent to that area. She had a good chat with one of her comps and stayed up late at night. She had told her how her last comp was so mean to her. Only speaking english with others when she only knew spanish and not doing work with her. Jade was crying when she told me. She is so passionate about her mission. She has changed so much. She has so much love for the Savior and for this gospel.  She works hard and gives it all for Him.  I am sure this assignment of traveling missionary will not be easy but she knows she can bless others lives in a different way.  She is such a example to all of us and what we need to be doing in our lives to share the gospel and to be a disciple of Jesus Christ. We are so proud of her and all she does.  She had lots of rain this week and lots of mud. It was sunny on Monday so she was happy about that. They went and played games at the church with their district and ha...

Week 67 Nov 27th Last transfer

Image
 Jade had a good week.  She is still going to be a traveling missionary, she is with Hermana Brazil, they were so excited when they found out.  She said it is hard work but she is happy to do it. She is hoping to be able to go and visit most of her areas before she leaves so that she can see everyone.  So crazy this is last transfer.  The little girl has all of their name tags on. The white building is a govenrnment building.  They had lunch on a roof top. They had yummy ice cream and got samples of all the rest.  A member owns the shop so they get lots of ice cream from him.  The pic of the lady who just got baptized and a random guy who was holding the book of Mormon just wanted a pic with them.  They had district council all together and yummy doughnuts. She is in a suburb area again and is excited to be there and to find more to teach. She is doing awesome and we are so proud of her. She already has a amazing tan line on her feet!

Week 57 Sep 18 New experience.

Image
 Jade has moved to a new area again with her traveling comp calling.  When she got there the sisters were not doing a lot of work.  They were having lessons with members but did not have very many friends to teach.  Jade was feeling very down and actually did not feel the spirit for a few days.  This is the first time this has happened on her mission and she did not like the feeling at all.  On sunday they had gone to a park to see if they could find some people after church.  They were sitting on a bench and the one sister asked her what was wrong. She had told her how she had not felt the spirit since she had got there on Thursday and it was really bothering her.  They talked it out and now Jade has helped the sisters to make a daily schedule and to go out and find those to teach.  She said she was feeling much better today but still is hard.  I knew this would be a hard assignment for Jade to do.  But I also know that she can do ...
