Dearest Familia,
Cambios happened this week as yàll know. Mi nueva companera
is from Honduras, she`s 20, (but looks like she`s 16 ha), but she`s great! She
has a strong desire to work and is ready to go and I am excited to be her
trainer. She`s a good one.
This week we had 3 dogs attack us. Dirty rotten scoundrels.
It was on Wednesday, day 1 in the mission field for my companion ha. They were
so chill until we passed by them and then they attacked us con todo los
poderes (with all their powers?). My new comp has a fear of dogs...poor thing. But I think this helped
break her in a little bit. The good news is the dogs didn`t get my legs and
only managed to grab and rip my skirt...so no big deal, I`m totally fine.
(sarcasm). Adventures! Large sticks have become my best friends.

Yesterday was a glorious day in church! We had 8 people that
came to church with Giovanni, Carmina, Rocio and Ivon all came, as well as
Antonio and Ingrid and Sara. I was seriously so happy! Hermana Evans and I
worked like crazy the last 3 months and we are just now starting to see those
fruits. And it brings so much joy to my heart. Sometimes we just have to have
patience and trust in the Lord`s timing (which is sometimes the worst ha...but
yet always really the best).

We went with Giovanni and Carmina yesterday and had a really
great lesson with them. We taught them about the Restoration and it seriously
was so great. The spirit was really strong and they really saw the blessings
and felt great in church. They told us how they had been wanting to serve God
and find a church where they could worship and dedicate time to God. They also
said that they never would have imagined themselves in a Mormon church, but for
us insisting constantly is how they ended up there. And they thanked us for
insisting. It always makes me so happy when the people thank us for insisting.
Because basically they are saying, "Thank you for being so obnoxious in
inviting us to church..." But yet they are grateful for it and it gives me
more ganas (incentive...motivation) to be more insistent and keep working. They said they want to keep
going to church and have the desire to serve God and see miracles. Excited for
their future. I sure love them.

This week I read in 1 Nephi 10:17-19 and I loved it. It talks
about diligence, faith, repentance, and more diligence. Things I always want to
have in my life...diligence, faith, and a constant desire to change and be
better.
Love you lots!
Love,
Hermana Wright
