Hola Familia and friends!

This was a great week of getting to know a new area. THe great thing is I have Hna Martos, who is so patient with me, when I have no idea where we are. But I am also surprised how quickly Ive memorized where our investigators and some of the members live. I know the Lord has helped me this week in every moment.

 

HERMANA MOSTERT Y HERMANA MARTOS!

Anyways this week we went out and gave our all talking with everyone, asking for referrals in every moment and contacting referals recieved. We were able to see many miracles as at the begging of the week we only had about 2 investigators to teach, and we found 4 new amazing people who are veryinterested in the gospel. Weeve decided to focus many of our efforts on finding through visiting active members and talking with everyone we come in contact with. I know this is a tough area, but I know the Lord will prepare a way for us if we work dilligently.

This was a very special sunday too, as there was an broadcasted area conference for only Peru and Bolivia. It was great to hear from the Area Seventies, Primary President, and Elder Anderson. They all stressed the importance of Tithing, keeping the sabbath day holy and going to the temple.

Anyways, everything else is going well.  I love being a missionary and I know the Lord has put me in this area because I have alot to learn. I know without a doubt that Christ lives and this is his one and true church, once again restored on the face of the earth-

Mucho love,

Hermana Mostert

Hola Familia and Friends!

Greettings from BOLOGNESI, CHORRILLOS! Yup, this week the big news that came this saturday night was that I got a transfer to Lima to be the Sister Leader Trainer for the Chorrillos Zone. My new companion is Hermana Martos from Trujillo, Peru! She is amazing! She has just around 3 months in the mission so were both newbies together! Our area is pretty big and spands from the border with the Lima East mission in Surco (fun fact our apartment and our chapel are actually in the East mission), to the beach front area of Baranco, which is a touristy place full of foreigners (or as Hna Martos says the home of my fellow gringos). Its a very unioque area as we share it with the secretaries (although they only proslyete after 5pm) and on thursdays we work in the office inputting mission referrals. Its a big culture shock coming from Ayacucho, where wed get chased by sheep and chickens weekly. But Im excited to see get to know the area. My companion told me that the people here are very reluctant to listen, and that well have to have alot of patience, as there hasnt been a baptism in the area since around February. But I know that if we give our all, and trust in the Lord in all we do, we will see the fruits of our labors.

Anyways this week was a little sad as I had to say goodbye to all our investigators and memebers in Ayacucho that I grew to love so much. It was hard to leave the families weve been working with, but I know Hna Murrilo will take good care of them.

Lots of Love and I promise to send pictures of the beach newxt week!

AYACUCHO WEEK #17

LIMA TEMPLO-OCTUBRE 2015

HOLA FAMILIA AND FRIENDS!!

This week we went to the temple! As family history sisters, we get to take recent converts to the temple every month and a half. This week we went with the Huamani Family (Jose, Haydee and Willis), who got baptized just over 2 months ago. They were so excited to go, and it was an amazing experience to be able to be with them as they went into the temple for the first time. The spirit and their testimonies made the total 20 hour trip worth it! We saw many miracles on this trip too, as we had only been able find 2 endowed bretheren to accompany us, but at the temple were able to find another group that were able to complete our group! I love the temple and its truly a blessing to be able to go there, even if it is 10 hrs from Ayacucho.

Anyways, this was a very difficult week in our area. We didnt have many lessons, and walked alot. Satan worked hard with our progressing investigators aswell, as because of various issues, Mirke And Zully will not be married or baptized this week, and neither will Misael. Nevertheless, we were able to see simple and small miracles. Last sunday, a brother who hadnt been to church in 15 years came to our chapel with his wife and children. We were able to visit them and all he wants is to return to church so he can baptize his wife and children. This family is amazing, and they were a blessing.

In other news, this saturday is cambios, and everyone in the zone and our ward is bidding me farewell, as its most likely Im leaving the area. Theres a small chance Ill stay but nevertheless I am so grateful that I was able to spend these wonder 4 and half months in Ayacucho!

Lots of Love,

Hermana Mostert

WEEK#16 Getting Eaten by Bugs and General Conference

EN EL MERO CENTRO!!!!

COMIENDO EN EL BALCON Y CARNE!!!!

BUENOS DIAS FAMILIA AND FRIENDS,

This was an amazing week! Primarily because we were able to hear from our living prophet and apostles, but also because weve been able to help families take a step closer to the temple!

This week we were able to teach and commit to baptism, Misael, the husband of a recent convert. And hes working to be baptized on his sons 8th birthday (this 17th) and to get baptized with his son, by his older son!! We are so excited and you can feel the love within this family and they work together to be one in the gospel.

We also kept working with Mirke and Zully. They should have all their papers by tommorow, and Im sure we will do all in power to get them married this 16th. We taught them the word of wisdom and tithing this week, which they accepted very well. They even asked if they could start paying their tithing from now on!

This week was great because we also got to see General Conference. The stake center set up a little room where we gringos could hear it in English. It was great to hear the voice of the prophet. I especially loved Pres Holland{s talk on motherhood, I can testify of all his words, I know I wouldnt be here serving the lord with all my heart mind and strength if it wasnt for my amazing mother. Te amo mama m}con todo mi corazon. Also Elder Bednars remarks were just what I needed. PONDERIZE haha I liked that too.

Anyways this friday we travel to lima with our converts to go to the temple!

Lots of Love, 

Hermana Mostert

AYACUCHO WEEK#15

HERMANA MOSTERT TODAVIA EN AYACUCHO!!!

PIZZA EN AYACUCHO.

LECCIONES DE HISTORIA FAMILIAR.

Buenas Tardes Familias and Friends!

This was a good week, we worked hard and reaped the benefits. Almost every day we went out at 10 in the morning and came back around 9:30 at night. We walked alot, and were blessed with many lessons. We were also able to find 2 new families and 6 new investiagtors, it was truly a blessing.

This week we kept working with Mirke and Zully to prepare them for their wedding this 16 of October and baptism this 17th of Octuber. But there has been great opposition, and difficulties as shes from the Jungle and she recently lost her ID, which takes 15 days to recieve a new one. We trying ouir best to work with some of the connections we have in our ward who work for the government. We are praying everyday for everything to work  out.

This saturday we also had the chance to Travel to Huanta for family history. Its a cute little city in the mountains, about an hour from Ayacucho. The trip there was twisty and Hna Murillo got really dizzy ahah. But it was worth it because we got to teach 6 people and commit them to go to the temple this 9th of octobre.

In other news, Spring has started here in Peru. Which means the sun is in full furry and we get back sunburned almost everyday, y si mama me estoy poniedo bloqueador cada dia. We are also getting eaten alive by all the bugs, which is fun. But its all worth it in the long run.

I love being a missionary!
