Hard week

Dearest Family and Friends, 

Hermana Cançado and I have had a hard week but we have also seen many little miracles. We have both been striving to live up to our calling as disciples of Christ and serving others. Two of our investigators we found out will be leaving the country in the next month and neither of them will be ready for baptism before. So we continue our search to invite others to come unto Christ. With every struggle we have also received some sort of tender mercy from the Lord. I feel humbled and all I want to do is contintue to become better, a better missionary, a daughter, a better disciple of Christ. 

As Hermana Cançado and I fasted and prayed this week, we both feel we are being guided in the direction to work even more with the ward members through teaching them to serve one another. We have many ideas and things that we are working on that I am very excited about. (If you all have any ideas as well, don´t hestiate to send them my way.) I don´t know if you remember hearing about the packets we made, but this week we received a tender mercy about those packets. One of the ward members, Elena, came up to us and was telling us that those packets were exactly the push she needed. She then told us about 5 missionary experiences she had had that week. Last night we went over to her home and she had a list of Family, Friends, Aquaintences, and Less Actives that she was praying for and looking for opportunities to share the gospel with. We were able to help her with ideas and then pray together by name for each one of these people. I feel so blessed to be working with such amazing people here, both members and missionaries alike. I feel inspired and motivated to work even harder and show God how grateful I am for the love and knowledge that I have. 

Estoy muy agradecida por cada una de vosotros y por mi oportunidad servir también. Yo sé que Dios contesta oraciones y que tenemos una grande potencial como hijas y hijos de Dios. Tengo un testimonio fuerte que esta es la Iglesia de Jesucristo, y mediante él y su expiación podemos hacer todas las cosas. Os quiero muchísimo. 

Hermana Ariana Fuller
