Three Months

May 19, 2014



Today is my 3 month mark. Whoa.

Crazy news. There is a Fleischer family not too far from my area. My companion went to some training in Merida on Wednesday and I was adopted by 2 other hermanas for the day. We were visiting members and different people and a couple people noticed my name and said that there was a family of Fleischers in the area. We were going to go meet them but my companion came back and so I went back to my area, but in our zone meeting today, the Hermanas in that area told me that they met the family and they are indeed Fleischers!!! They are from Germany and their family left during a war and they are less active members.... that is all the information I have about them right now haha.
But we are going to plan a family home evening with them and I am going to bring my family tree. I am so sure they are long lost relatives and I feel like this is destiny that we have been brought together in Campeche. I will definitely let you know how it goes when it happens.

Taco shop with Hmna Garcia
Today we had our zone meeting with 2 zones and President and Hermana Garcia too! Afterwards all the missionaries went and ate at a taco shop. About 40 missionaries or so. It was fun. 

I hope everything is going super well at home!!
My fear of dogs and bugs have decreased significantly. 


One thing that we have been recently asked to do a lot is read the book of mormon with our investigators, and find members to come and read it with them. I think we often underestimate the power in this book but really there is tons. A special and interesting experience I had this week was we were in a lesson and we read a verse together, I had no idea what it meant (book of mormon vocab in Spanish is still a little tricky for me), but I felt a warm feeling in my heart and the Holy Ghost testified to me that the Libro de Mormon is true. I know that the Spirit doesn't speak in English or Spanish, but speaks to our hearts.

Con mucho amor
