Conference!! Christmas for Missionaries!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey it was a week of miracles. I'm going to try to make up for the small letters that I have written these last weeks. So this week I was feeling what my companion is feeling. Tired. HAHA but conference was a big help to get us motivated to keep going. Endure to the end. So last week we couldn't find or teach really any of our investigators. They had all left out of our area and it was almost impossible to find or teach. This week our goal was to really focus on getting the investigators to the general conference.
So miracles of General conference.
Friday we taught a girl and talking about baptism, she told us that she hasn't received an answer from God if she should be baptized, and that many people laugh at her because she is thinking about joining the "Mormon" church. We sat down and told her that the day after she would have the chance to hear the words from the prophet of God. I remember looking her in the eyes and saying...."Tomorrow, you will receive your answer, and you will hear it from the apostles of God. Will you attend the conference with us tomorrow to receive your answer?" She attended the Saturday morning session. Where if you remember.....They talked about putting God first, and how we shouldn't worry about what the men are saying. President Uchtdorf also talked about how we can receive answers from God. The first session was all for her! She is praying and trying to find her own answer now. Sunday morning we were able to attend Church with another sister. She is a huge miracle also. She told us that when she was eight years old she remembers that her dad received elders in her home and attended church with them. She remembers that her dad, every single night, would read the Book of Mormon and tell his daughters, I know that this book is true and it has changed my life. She said that she never attended church, that she never had given much thought to the missionaries until we knocked on her door and was reminded of everything. She attended the first session on Sunday. Her and her little girl. She is preparing to be baptized.   I saw all four sessions in English. It was super funny. The Hermana Murguia was sitting right next to me all of the conferences. It was weird seeing the fall leaves when its spring here. I feel like I'm closer to my birthday than to Christmas. 
God is so aware of his children. Its amazing how conference can answer so many questions. I'm comforted and excited to see what awaits me in my future. I'm excited to keep working.
Hey I love you guys tons.

Exercising in front of  our house in the morning!

My companion and I all dressed up for conference.

It was a great conference!

Our district menos 2 elders. It was a great day!  The members brought
 us all empanadas to eat for lunch.
 
Another cool experience that I had was we watched all of the sessions in English. But when it was the time for the people to speak that were speaking in spanish. My companion for the day Hermana Murguia and I went and listened in Spanish. I felt very blessed to be able to understand. I know that God has blessed me so much. He helped me with the gift of tongues to do His work. I love spanish!
Love ya mom. I hope you are keeping strong! Keep going !
Love your daughter who is not so far away, just in another country,
