First Week!


Hola!!!

Being a missionary is the coolest thing ever! I can't even describe how amazing it is to be around the spirit this strong all the time! I am so happy its ridiculous! There isn't anywhere else I would rather be. An important lesson I have learned is the need to turn out from yourself. The first week I was pretty caught up in myself and my struggles. On Sunday we watched a devotional from Elder Bednar and he talked about turning out from yourself and serving others. So I did just that and it was amazing how much that helped. I am so much happier serving other people and forgetting myself!

Ok so Hermana Kent is stuggling with technology. haha. I love being a missionary! Mexico is absolutely beautiful! I feel so blessed to have had the chance to come to the CCM in Mexico! My companion Hermana Lindsey and I taught our first investigator (our teacher) the third day we were here! The gift of tongues is real. haha Sometimes I don't even know what I am saying but the words just seem to fall from my mouth. I have learned how important it is to involve the Lord in EVERYTHING I do. The Lord wants to bless his children. We just have to ask him.
 
I know this church is true! The Book of Mormon is true! PLEASE read it! It is filled with comfort and guidence from the Lord. Pray often! I love you all so much!
 
Love,
Hermana Kent
