Week 13: Elder Holland Visit - Highlight!

Buenos tardes mi familia! How are you all?? This week was one for the books! First of all, we had a dinner every day this week!!! And one was with an investigating family!! it was great!! The highlight of our week though was a surprise mission conference with Elder Holland, Elder Hallstrom and Elder Gent!! It was great! They talked a lot about how the success of our mission isn't dependent on how many baptisms we have or the less actives we make active but rather on how great of a person we become because of the mission. They stressed a lot about being good fathers and mothers! Then they talked a lot about missionary work and that we don't have the right to return from our mission and go inactive. I really liked it because he really touched on the fact that a mission is supposed to prepare us to be better people in the future and i really liked that! it was great! we all got to introduce ourselves and shake his hand! He definitely carries the spirit with him all the time! Plus he was way shorter than I expected... anyways that was really the highlight of my week! I love and miss you all! It's so great to hear about the fun times you're all having back home! I keep you all in my prayers and miss you a lot! Tenga una buena semana!
