Another Week

Hola familia!

This week went by really fast. We worked really hard this week to find new people and we did find some that can progress, I believe.  I am getting SUPER excited about conference--and even more because you´ll actually be IN there with the prophet!!!  WOW Talking about conference this week; we're letting everyone know about it and I received lots and LOTS of questions. Why have all of the prophets of the Mormon church only been Americans.  The truth is: I don't know but I do know the Lord calls and that every prophet was and is called of God. That is sufficient for me.  I am so grateful we have a living prophet to guide us.

This week in Peru there was a big scare that the Russians predicted that we would have a 7 or 8 point earthquake here in Peru and we should all be prepared but so far so good and I really don't know how they can say that because I thought you could only warn people of an earthquake 10 min before it happens...who knows?

Well, we have a baptism for conference weekend and the parents of the girl want to get baptized too but they need to get married first (surprise). I hope everything works out.  Pray for them!!!!!!!!!!!!  It would be so cool that this whole family is baptized.

Sounds like Mom is doing great work in Relief Society and the family is good.  I was happy to hear that Clark is still doing well even though maybe his new area is a struggle.  My companion that was from Argentina always asks about him and how he is doing. 

Lots of love and blessings this week for all!!!!!!!!!!

Changes

Hola Familia

SI tengo cambio siento que estoy viajando por todos lados :)  I have a change!  Let"s all play, "Where will Hermana Lindsey Go??"  Because I don´t find out until tomorrow night.  But somewhere COLD I am sure.  Because I have already been in all the hot places in the mission. I will miss the heat, the jungle, the MANGOES...ahhhhhh :)   We will see what happens.  My companion is really sad that I am going.  I feel bad.  She told me yesterday if I have a change,  she will go home.  I hope her new companion can help her learn to love the work.  Sometimes I feel I might have failed in that aspect...but I can´t look back.  I learned a lot being her companion.  President always receives revelation and I am excited to learn where I will go next.  I can´t believe it is already September.  We found a GREAT family this week.  We were knocking on doors and WOW both me and my companion had an impression to knock on this door and a lady answered the door.  We told her who we were and how this message can bless her family and she let us in.  We started to talk, she showed us pictures of her family and was so excited to talk with us.  We shared the first vision with her and challenged her to be baptized and she accepted AND she is MARRIED ( what a miracle and a blessing)  and now I am leaving and my companion doesn´t want to work.  But this family NEEDS her.  Now!  I just hope they follow through and are baptized because they are golden.  I hate leaving an area when we find such great people but that is how the mission is!!! But I know the Lord has a plan for me.  I love the mission with all my heart it has changed my life.  And continues to do so.

The family is all talking about how the leaves are changing colors and oh how I miss that time of year!!!!  Enjoy it while it lasts!! 

I don´t have much else to say except I hope you all have a great week and work hard!
