My heart is broken. I dont want to leave Siglo XX
I couldnt stop crying saying goodbye to familia espinoza today but well thats the mission we always have transfers. Im going to go to Delicias, Sucre and be the last companion of Hna Kincaid haha. Im happy becuase Ive never been outside of cochabamba but also sad because this all I know and to finish my mission outside its so sad. But I know that God knows better than us. This week was great!! This week we said goodbye to a lot of people. And one of the member's daugthers wanted to straighten my hair so I let her haha that was yesterday. It was very special to see walter our convert receive the priesthood this Sunday! Seriously him and his sister are such strong converts and with their example they have helped Giancarla their older sister want to take this step too! We had lunch with them on sunday it was the best! so fun haha The mission is the best thing ive ever done. I encourage all to think about going and all to hear the missionaries at least once. Love you alll, Hermana Campana Here are some pictures of today saying goodbye also with hna Christensen. 1) With Cesar and Amanda 2) With Laura and the teddy she gave me she said it reminded her of me haha awwww 3) The Espinoza Siblings!!! aww 4) In the taxi going to visit Nicolas in the hospital to say goodbye

Hey there friends and family!
This week was so much better than the last. What did I do differently changed my attitude about everything, I really tried to see the good in everyone and everything, I love this area and the converts here and those that are choosing to follow Jesus Christ and be baptized. Rayza and Walter are such strong youth. They are the perfect example of true faith. They believe and they act. As we see that faith without works is dead. I am also grateful for the leaders God calls. Presidente Montoya has helped me alot this week in my interview and when he taught in the conference this week. I was able to feel God's love for me through his words. My favorite part of being a missionary is the change we can see in those we teach. Argelia suprised me this week! She was sweter than usual and had this light about her and she understood all the commandments we taught her, and the best part she shared the gospel. shes a little missionary! Well have a great week y'all haha There might be transfers next week it makes me sad but this scripture helps! Joshua 1:9 Truly the scriptures can help at any moment of our lives. love you, Hna Campana 1) Rayza and Walter got baptized this weekend! They both are awesome converts and want to go on a mission! 2) Bought some cool rings today, he has so much talent! 3) Dinner with our ward mission leader Juan carlos and his wife. Theyre the best! Sharing this cambio with the elders and them was the best 4) With Rayza and Walter's family at their baptism! Ok so this week it snowed tons but in the mouintains it was cold and cloudy after that happened! It was perfect because the day before that happened we were singing christmas hymns. Ah I wish we could of gone up there it was beautiful!
So Cesar and Amanda are doing so well, theyre receiving answers, Cesar was going through the pages of the BOM and found Moroni 10:29 ! They came to church also!! and are thinking about a date to be baptized. I love their family so much and Im grateful that with time all is possible. That they are feeling that everyhing is true and are acting to recieve a firm answer. I love to see the change in those we teach. The light in their eyes. This Sunday we had stake conference and it was perfect. They talked about families but my favorite part was a question... Is Jesus Christ my God? .... and thinking of what that meant in my life. 1) In consejo this week 2) With Presidente and his wife 3) Familia Espinoza! 4) This is what I need to eat from now on 5) But before that This! One last time Well this week was good normal you know. The only bad thing was that I was sick all week but God gave me the strength to push through and work.
I absolutely love Bolivia. the music the folklore, the food the people. I love the bonds. I never want to leave Siglo XX but I have a feeling I might have to when we have transfers. This week well Damiana is progressing so well. She is the sweetest human being and also committed she came to church twice already even though her husband doesnt. She understands that its important to come and not work that day. She is so very grateful that we arrived at her home to teach her kids she says shes happy that of her kids are going to church but that she prays some day all her kids will be there at church! Its so cute! She cant read but she asks her son Nicolas to read to her and she remembers to explain it to us when we ask her, and she prayed in front of the whole class in gospel principles this Sunday! Aw it was the cutest she pretty much just thanked God for us. I loved reading Mosiah 8:18 during exchanges this week on Wednesday. God makes a way for everything and that by faith we can become of great help to everyone around us. We are here to help one another. And at times we forgett that, we become selfish and then sad... but if we just serve someone, listen, talk, think about anyone else other than your own I promise your day will be better. Well, not much else happened this week, but here are some cute pics. 1) Making pancakes with Raul and Cesar and Amanda 2) In Exchanges with Hna Condori! and Damiana (Laura's mom) Shes listening to us now and going to church! She also wants to be baptized! 3) Laura made us a ''sprng'' cake! Shes the best! 4) with mama Isabel :) 5) When sick you can always count on Laura! She didnt want me to be cold walking home haha |
