¿Qué Tal, Bolivia?: If you want to see Miracles just look at your own life:)

HEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOOO AGAIN!

How are you all??? I am doing so good! I was so excited all week to write you all and tell you about all the awesome things that have happened this week.

So as you can see in my photos, I am with a GRINGA! And it is totally cool. Hna Black is awesome, and we have a lot in common. She is about to end her mission in about 3 months. And I just wrote president, and he told me that is very likely that I will be transferred out of my area in the next cambio.... I was so sad when I read that. I REALLY DONT WANT TO LEAVE POTOSI! Freak.... we will see what happens.....

But anyways, Hna Black is awesome. She wants to run with me in the mornings, and she is a really hard worker. We are trying to be exactly obedient.

We have been knocking a lot of doors this week. We really don’t have very many people progressing, so we have been talking to a lot of people. But it is cool because we have met some really golden people. I am excited to get to know them better.

And something awesome has happened. I really don’t know what it is, but I feel so comfortable all of the sudden. Heavenly Father has worked some miracle inside of me. I don’t feel afraid anymore. And because Hna Black doesn’t know anyone, I have had to lead in all of the lessons. But I could do it! My spanish just started to flow, and I could feel the gift of tongues working within me. I know that it was nothing that I have done. It is all thanks to the Spirit. And I am so excited. I come out of each lesson just feeling great because I am helping these people.

So yeah... it was a great week, even though most of our appointments fell through. We met some great people.

GENERAL CONFERENCE! So we have been really focusing on teaching about prophets this week. I have been studying and preparing lessons all week on how we can really help these people understand the importance of General Conference. And I have felt the Spirit so strong. I have come to really appreciate the opportunity that I have to testify that we have a living prophet today. And I have never been more excited for General Conference in my whole dang life!

HOW ARE YOU PREPARING FOR GENERAL CONFERENCE?

I hope my whole family is preparing questions that they want answered in the sessions. And I hope that you all really try to get everything done so you can watch all of the sessions. I know that you can all receive guidance, because Heavenly Father will be talking directly to YOU through His servants.

MOM! Did you want the Women`s session? If not, go watch it! It was way good. One thing that I learned from President Uchtdorf was that Heavenly Father is constantly showering blessings down upon us. However, sometimes we put up an umbrella and prevent ourselves from receiving these blessings and inspirations. This umbrella can be actions, thoughts, etc. What is your umbrella? How are you preventing yourself from receiving the shower of blessings that Heavenly Father has for you?

Anywho.... I will stop being all preachy.... but really this week has been amazing and I have learned so much.

I have a question that I would like all of you to respond to. Really, I want to learn more about faith. The scriptures always talk about the faith that can move mountains. How can we have this type of faith? How can we have the faith that creates miracles? I want to increase my faith in the Savior, and I need your advice. AYUDAME POR FAVOR!

One elder told me that if you really want to see miracles, just look at your own life. Really, it is miracle that I am here on the mission. It is a miracle that I can kind of speak spanish.

Look for the miracles that are in your life.

YUP! So Hna Black and I found Reeses here.... but they were like 10 thousand years old and powdery... it was kind of sad. We saw that the only thing that puts us trunky is talking about the food in the US. Hahahah like SLURPEES!

The other photo is a goofy picture of me at the internet place that we are at today.

I LOVE YOU ALL SO MUCH! I hope you all listen to General Conference. Really... I am so freaking excited that it is ridiculous. We are going to buy snacks and hopefully get to listen to it in English... if there is internet in the chapel. Tell me what you learn and I`ll write next week!

LOVE

HNA ROUTSONG

P.S. I forgot to tell you that pretty much everyone looks at Hna Black and I funny because we are both tall and have blondish hair. We call our companionship the twin towers bc we literally TOWER over everyone. Hahahahahaha Our first day together
