Hello!!!! I am a little bit short on time, because there are a lot of things I have to get done today, but I love you all! This week was really cool because we had interviews with president, where I always learn so much. Then the next day we had a conference with both of the Nicaraguan missions with Elder Snow and Elder Alonso. One of the things they talked about was the importance of keeping a record. Also of writing down the things we learn. I really love this gospel so much. Our whole zone ended up staying in Managua overnight which was also really fun. All of the hermanas in our zone stayed at the house of the TLs of the entire mission.

Yesterday at church was great because a lot of people came! I love this work a lot and I love you guys! Happy Week!

Hermano Jose got confirmed!!!! Recently the Lord has been teaching us a lot about pacience. There have been a lot of different people who we have been working with (members, recent converts, and investigators) that have had relapses and started drinking again. But now with the help of the Lord and a lot of prayer everyone is on the up and up!

I got to do divisions with Hermana Alvarez!!! She was trained by the missionary I trained, so she is my granddaughter! It was so happy! We got to talk about the people from El Naranjo and I learned a lot from her. I am trying to finish the Book of Mormon again before I go home so I just have to read 6 pages a day which isn´t tough.

We went to Chinandega today to buy groceries and shoes for Hermana Landaverde and I found Ana Shellcy (who is a Young Woman from my last ward) coming home from school!

It is amazing just how much we have to learn. The great thing is that we are never done learning. I love this work a lot and I love you!

Pictures!!! Okay Some of the pictures are of us in the big park in Chichigalpa. They really have some quality parks here. Also, there is a picture from when we did a service project in Posoltega which is a brand new area that was just opened! It`s cool because in our zone there are a bunch of areas that for the first time in forever have had missionaries. It is so exciting and special to see the work of the Lord progressing! Also, there are some pictures of a maze race that our zone did today! It was super fun but now my arms are really tired from crawling through it haha.

Can you guys please pray for Hermano Jose? He is having a tough time with the Word of Wisdom, but we are working and praying for him a lot! We are working with a lot of really great people that I love a lot! There are always obstacles, but the Lord helps us and the people here overcome them! One of our recent converts here in Chichigalpa who is also the Young Men`s president said something that really hit me. He said that we don`t sign up for the war to sit down. We sign up to fight. When we are baptized we promise that we are going to follow Christ and spread his gospel. That is anything but easy but we know we have God on our side! After a tough afternoon when we had seen a lot of obstacles and problems, our ward mission leader shared with us 1 Nephi 1:20 go read it! I know that the Lord loves us and is preparing all of us for big things. When he gives us commandments he also prepares a way for us to accompish them!

We also had "Rendir Cuentas" with Presidente Collado which was really great. It always helps me a lot. I love you all so much and hope all is well with you guys! Have a super happy week!

Okay! I`m pretty sure we all loved conference a ton. It is just such a testimony to me that when we are humble and bring our questions to the Lord, He answers our paryers. I also love General Conference because when we bring investigators there are always talks that are perfect for them and address their needs perfectly. It was funny because when we passed by for our investigators to go with them to conference, they had already left to go by themselves!

Our zone changed a lot so there were a lot of new people at our zone meeting this week. There are a lot of new areas that they are opening too in our zone so it is super exciting. Like towns that have never had missionaries before, do now and the groups there are growing fast! I just have such a strong testimony that this is the Lord`s work. We had a meeting in Managua with all the leaders this week and something that I like that was shared is that as missionaries we need to run, not just walk! Or at least walk fast haha. We need to feel the urgency of this work. The Lord is hastening his work!

Here is a picture of Hermana Landaverde and I! For this week we have Hermano Jose and Junior they are both so great and are so excited for their baptisms.

I love you guys and hope you are having a good week! Winter finally decided to come so it is raining everyday! Of course that means before it starts raining it gets really hot. I`m bad at taking pictures but I will try to send more!
