Hey there fam!
This week was ... AMAZING! Would you like to
know why?
Because we had conference and it was so so so so
so GOOD! We got to watch it live in Spanish and man all the talks were fab! I
think my conference highlights included....
- Jeff Hollands talk... that man delivered ... it was the type of talk were he could have dropped the mic at the end.... THATS HOW GOOD IT WAS! I really loved it and today we downloaded it so we could listen to it in english!
- the picture in Hollands talk... every missionary was dying laughing from that... but when the pic showed it was only in English so that is why the missionarys thought it was funny! #BRAVOJEFF
- Niel L Andersons talk really hit home with me idk why but I just loved it so much maybe because I have really grown to love working with the youth here in Mexi and man it really helped with some life decisions!
- Also loved Eyrings talk... that man is so in tune with the spirit and I loved learning from him!
- And okay... MO-TAB killed it with Come Thou Fount... I was crying like a baby I have no idea why and everyone was crying and people in the choir were crying and man oh man I have always loved that version of the song but I just loved it even more. and yes I am becoming a softy!
But I loved conference! LOVED LOVED LOVED IT! I mean after
watching and listening there is no possible way to say that the profeta and
lideres of the church aren't called of God! I also thought it was interesting how
much they talked about the priesthood and the proper way to receive it and
such! But yes I shall stop my conference rant haha! We had Georgina go with us
to conference and we have only been teaching her for like a week now but we just
LOVE HER! and she really enjoyed it and you could tell she felt the spirit.
Also Luis came and he now has been to church twice but is like impossible to
find him in his house to teach him... haha but he has been teaching us a little bit
of italian. Also Naomi was there with her mom and Naomi of course was a little
bored as a nine year old girl but we were glad her mom was able to come... she
been less active for like a year. Also guess what?

Funny story... that morning we showed up to empty the font
at the stake center because it was nasty and luckily the elders helped us...
but we had to empty it with trashcans and we found this massive grey trashcan
outside that had wheels so we used that to empty the font! We promised the
elders cake for helping us... haha! always something here in Mexico... oh we
emptied it by hand because the thing was broken to empty the water! and the
water from before was a couple weeks old.

Life is so so good and Elder Oaks comes in two weeks so we are #BLESSED But I would just like to end with this.... I am so blessed to have been able to serve a mission for my Lord and Savior... I know that this is his work and he is with us in every moment! I love the lord, and I know I KNOW that I am a child of God, daughter of a king that has a plan for me and through church leaders and scriptures, prayer and the sacrament; I am not alone in the path.... ALL YOU FRIENDS OF MINE THAT ARE MEMBERS or not... PLEASE TAKE THIS INVITATION... just read the Book of Mormon and ask God if this is really true because I know he will give you an answer and he wants you in his fold!
Yes family I love you all... Lauren have fun at your baby shower... Chris

Hermanita Heywood
