If We Love Him



Hello everyone!

This week was great! The weather is finally starting to cool down a little bit (and when I say a little bit, I really only mean a little bit), but we got some rain and life is just great! I also hit 5 months today?? Time is going by so fast and I can't keep up! 

Also, I didn't get any responses from my email a few weeks ago about whether or not there are going to be dinosaurs in heaven. Me and my comp genuinely want to know and don't have many resources so if anyone can help us out that would be very much appreciated :) 

THE GOOD STUFF:
Here in the mission I am learning a lot about the Lord's timing. We all have a plan for how we would like our life to turn out, but most of the time the Lord has a different and a better plan for us. We found out this week that the couple we have been working with can't get baptized soon because Nicolas is waiting for his visa to go to the US and he is registered as "single" so they can't get married until his papers go through. It's been hard because they are so prepared and really want to be baptized, but right now just isn't their time. I know that the Lord has a plan and their time will come. The timing of the Lord really is perfect, we just have to try our best and trust Him!!

THE FUN STUFF:
There was a day this week that it rained pretty hard and me and my comp got cold?? We actually pulled out our sweaters to proselyte! (first time in the mish wahoo!) Christmas is in full swing here and we see more decorations and more lights every day! 

Don't forget to love like He does and NEVER give up!

Con amor, 
Hermana Kmetzsch

The Savior of the World

Hello everyone! This week was great! I picked up my new little greenie on Wednesday and she is the cutest! Her name is Hermana Kirkham and she's from South Jordan, Utah! She's super spunky and we are having a great time :) This weeks email is going to be a little bit different. I wanted to take this opportunity (because Christmas is this week) to share my Testimony of the Savior. I KNOW that He lives and that He loves us more than we could ever imagine. He doesn't only love us but He knows us personally. Whenever we feel lost or like we just can't go on, He is there to strengthen us and to not only walk beside us, but to carry us. He is in every detail of our lives. All we have to do is look for Him. I KNOW that He atoned for our sins and He sacrificed so that one day we can live again and that death is not the end.   We are not alone. Our Savior, Our Redeemer, The Prince of Peace, The Bread of Life, The Great Shepherd and was born on Christmas day to save us, to...

Hola everyone!  This week was awesome! We had zone conference with two members of the 70 who were doing a mission tour this week! Elder Alverado is actually speaking in conference in October and he is AWESOME so I encourage you all to pay special attention to him.  Zone Conference THE GOOD STUFF: So this week we had zone conference and boy was it amazing. We had two members of the 70 there and spoke to us. Elder Alverado talked about the gathering of Israel and how it is the most important work on the earth. We really are in a time where we are preparing for Christ to come. It's a cool experience to be completely immersed and dedicated to this gathering and this work. A scripture that we have been using a lot this week is in 2 Nephi 26:33. It says:   33  For none of these iniquities come of the Lord; for he doeth that which is good among the children of men; and he doeth nothing save it be plain unto the children of men; and he  a inviteth ...

Hola everyone!  This week was crazy and full of miracles! I also hit 6 months so that is just crazy sauce. Time is flying by and I just can't keep up!  THE GOOD STUFF: So. Gary. We went back to his house after the tithing lesson and he said that he feels so good and he just can't wait for Saturday to come! I have never met anyone so prepared and ready for the gospel. He said that he knows how much his life is going to change but how he is willing to give up everything because the changes he is going to make are worth far more than anything else.  We also have a new friend we are teaching named Carlos. He is 21 and speaks English! He is so interested in the gospel and really was looking for the truth when we found him. We gave him a Book of Mormon this week and he told us that he was going to read the whole thing as fast as he could cause he just wants to know if its true for himself.  I am realizing the importance of putting the gospel first ...
