White Wash


      We just received our calls to see if we will be transferred from our area. We've been "White Washed." In missionary terms that means we are both leaving the area and they will be putting 2 new missionaries here. It is kind of sad because the people we've been teaching can be lost, or maybe they will progress slower because they don't know and don't yet trust the new missionaries. But I know and have faith that Heavenly Father has a plan, and in the end everything will work out because it always does!!!!!!!! He has a greater plan that maybe is hard for us to see now, but his ways are higher than ours! 
      This week we had an activity at the Mormon Battalion with our branch. We had a bbq, hot dogs, and everyone watched Meet the Mormons. Senovio went and he really liked the movie and he is really close to being baptized! I know I say that all the time, but it is true! 
      I wanted to share some scriptures from one of my studies. I read Galatians 5:16
 "This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh."
When the Spirit is with us we can  resist temptation. 
 Gal. 5:22-26

"But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,

 23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.

 24 And they that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.

 25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.

 26 Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.

      Solanchi Fernandez gave me a journal that says "The Spirit is Key" and that is so true! 
Without the Spirit we wouldn't receive our testimonies, I wouldn't be able to teach and we wouldn't be guided. I love the Spirit. I want and need the spirit. 
      Funny story! I accidently drank soap! 
I put some soap in a water bottle because I didnt want to carry the whole container. The next day I wanted water, and I didn't notice that I grabbed the one with soap, so I drank it, but I didnt swallow! It was really really gross!
