19 years in the making: Week 26

1/26/15

Hi Family :)

Sending you lots of hugs!

So........! Transfers are tomorrow and I'm going to Solvang to work with Hermana Player. It is her last transfer so I'm going to make sure she works hard! I am excited for the transfer but also so sad to leave my companions and to leave all of our investigators.

This week we talked to Fernando and his family and he is going to be baptized February 7th! I am so excited and happy for him :) I know that he is going to so blessed and most of all his family is going to be blessed also.

Beto is the same. He was so sad when I told him that I had to leave.

This week end we have interviews with President Felix and I was so happy to see him and get to talk to him :) We also had Stake conference. Elder Packer from the 70 came and it was so cool to be there and to be able to feel the spirit so special and so strong. All the speakers talked about the Atonement of Jesus Christ and how we can use it to better our lives.

He thought about during the Atonement. Jesus Christ not just suffered for our pains and sicknesses but also for our sad times too. I know that when we are going through whatever, a problem, a test, a sad time, or lonely time, our Savior Jesus Christ knows how to help us. He knows how to strengthen us to be able to rise above these moments

I love being a missionary, I love you all, and I love this gospel.

D&C 128:22
22 Brethren, shall we not go on in so great a cause? Go forward and not backward. Courage, brethren; and on, on to the victory! Let your hearts rejoice, and be exceedingly glad. Let the earth break forth into singing. Let the dead speak forth anthems of eternal praise to the King Immanuel, who hath ordained, before the world was, that which would enable us toredeem them out of their prison; for the prisoners shall go free.

Have a good week!
With lots of love,
Hermana Cuevas DaSilva
