How are y'all? I can't believe it's Monday already. This week was amazing. The work gets better and better everyday. We continue to see miracles everyday. Rocio had to work yesterday so she wasn't able to come to church, but Genesis wanted to, so she invited her two little cousins. They all showed up to church and loved primary! We're hopefully going to start teaching her extended family members as well.
I thought I'd explain a little about our mission and how it works. I feel like so many times, I say things in my emails and i'm not sure if they make any sense.
In the TSAM we have..
-President Slaughter
-Assistants (conduct exchanges with ZL's)
-Sister Training Leader Leaders (conduct exchanges with the STL's)
-Zone Leaders
-Sister Training Leaders, District leaders
-Senior companion

-Junior Companion
Our assignment as Traveling Sister Training Leader Leaders is only for this transfer. President has asked us to go on exchanges with the STL's in the northern half of the mission. We will be giving trainings at all the Zone Conferences as well. It's going to be a busy transfer but i'm ready to work. I am so humbled to have the opportunity to work so closely with the greatest missionaries in the mission. I sit in our meetings and feel so tiny surrounded by spiritual giants. I dont know how much I have to give, but i'll give it all I have. I have never been so excited to do missionary work. I've never had such joy in the gospel. I have never felt so close to my Savior. I recognize my time left in the TSAM is short, but my mission doesn't end here. Ahh, I wouldn't trade my mission for anything!
I was talking to two of President Slaughter's kids last night in his home. They are 14 and 15 years old. We talked about living the gospel. Not just believing in it. They said that they never realized how blessed they were to have the parents they do, until someone else told them. They said they took it for granted, having parents who took them to church every week, who said nightly prayers, who studied the scriptures and taught their children to love the Lord. It really made me think. I know President Slaughter is called of God. And in no way do I mean to discredit him or his calling.. but my parents are pretty amazing too! I saw them saying prayers, we had family home evening, we studied the scriptures, they faithfully serve and magnify their callings, they love the Lord. I am so thankful for righteous parents who not only teach their children things, but teach them to love the Lord.
I love the Savior. Through his atonement we can be cleansed and strengthened. There is nothing in life that takes priority over the Gospel. President Joseph Smith said, “After all that has been said, the greatest and most important duty is to preach the Gospel.”
I love you! Have a great week and Happy Fourth of July!!!!
