THERE'S NO CHANGE IN THE COMFORT ZONE AND NO COMFORT IN THE CHANGE ZONE!


Sounds like a lot of fun this week! I’m so glad that you guys had fun in Hawaii, you bums! haha I hope you got to enjoy your birthday Mom and I have birthday letters that should be there by now! Hope you get/like them! It’s all I could find! And Chan, I’m glad you had a great week of shinanigans! Sounds like a lot of fun. Kenz is an AWESOME girl! And I am glad that the kids got to send a week with the Rammell’s and the Young Republicans! haha! You can imagine how much I have to hold my tongue around all these Utah boys since the election haha! Dad ingrained more in me than I even realized! Or corrupted me (however you wanna look at it haha!)

So, pretty crazy week! Super humbling week, too. We spent Tuesday through Thursday in McAllen for leadership training, which was so good. I love being able to spend time with the Trayners and we always go home with sore stomaches because President always keeps us laughing. At the end of training I was informed that once again I would be taken away from my child in training. I’m being transferred once again. My stay seemed so short here in San Benito. But I was super humbled because President told be I would be heading up to Robstown to be a Zone Leader. You can search it on a map, but I guess it’s up above Corpus. So I’m saying my farewells to Spanish, at least for now.  I always feel like right when you feel like you kinda got ahold of one thing, things get changed. And it seems that you always feel insignificant or not up to the task. But I think the Lord enjoys keeping us in that change zone. There’s not change in the comfort zone and no comfort in the change zone. So tomorrow morning I’ll be taking a group of "youngies" in the transfer van up to the great north. So wish me luck haha! I’m super excited!

So the bad news for this week is that Dulce fell through yesterday on the day of her interview. And it broke my heart. She had such a strong testimony, but just fell back into the things of the world. And it’s super hard to understand how people can receive answers from God and go against them. But I’m sure the Lord would ask me the same question. But it hurt to see her fall off. It was pretty amazing though because her brother and sister in law, who I taught, told me that in January they would be able to get baptized and told me that one day they will go to the temple and want me to be there. That would mean the world to me. But it always is such a testimony builder when you get to hear their testimony. They are the best.  So that’s about it for this week; Ups and Downs always. But it just wouldn’t be the same if we didn’t have them. Haha I love being here and I am so scared of time now. I pray that it slows down, and that you all stop praying for it to speed up! You can’t afford it either! I love you all and hope you have a great week! And Mom....


HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! TE QUIERO Y ESPERO QUE SEPAS QUE SIEMPRE ESTOY PENSANDO EN TI! LOVE YOU!!

BYEEE!!!!
