We have been able to see many Christmas miracles as well. This week were able to witness our investigators Felicita and Wilmur progress and see their desires to follow the example of christ and be baptized grow aswell. Its crazy how well God prepared people to recieve the gospel.

OBRA MISIONAL DEL BARRIO BOLOGNESI

DICIEMBRE EN BOLOGNESI!!!!!!

Dear Familia and Friends!

Saludos from Bolognesi!

This week was great. There were many trials and tests with our investigators but we were able to witness many miracles as well. We were able to help two of our families put marriage dates aswell as baptismal dates!! they are both amazing. We were also able to find Felicita, who is the mother of a recent convert, whose late husband was very active in the church aswell. She has been exposed to alot of the church before, but the lord has prepared her for this moment to prepare to join the church. She is honestly such a blessing and strong women.

This week I was also able to give a talk in sacrament meeting. WOOOO hahah I still get abit nervous i must admit. Anyways I talked about how to incorporate missionary work in our lives this holiday season. It was a great opportuinty for me to reflect aswell on how I can decalre the birth of christ with more love this season. But what i learned the most was that the emphasis we place on Christ this season, shouldnt just last till the 25th but the whole year!

HOLA FAMILIA AND FRIENDS!

HERMANAS MOSTERT Y LINARES

Greetings from the amazing land of Barrio Bolognesi. Supposedly it is summertime but the nights are still chilly. But there was sun on thursday for the first time in like 3 weeks so that was a pleasently hot surprise.

Anyways this week was great, we went out and worked hard. Training isnt like anything I would have imagined. Mostly because I dont feel like Iam traing, Hna Linares came pretrained, with eagerness to learn and work hard, with one of the strongest testimonies I have ever seen. She is so amazing and I learn so much from her every day we are together. This week we had the opportunities to see miracles as we were able to find Nancy, and Wilbur. Wilbur is the referral from an active family whom accompanied us in the lesson with him. He is so prepared to recieve this gospel. Ive never met anyone who understood the great apostacy so well. He was very eager to read the book of mormon aswell. Not to mention he accepted a baptismal date for the 2nd of January, and came to church this sunday and went to the christmas devotional aswell. God prepared people for the gospel I can testify of that. 

This week we were also able to finally meet the pareja of our investigator miguel. Shes a less active member and hes been attending in cañete for a year now. We had a married couple from our ward accompany us in a lesson with them yesterday, and bear the strongest testimony of the importance of marriage and their experience and difficulties in getting married to be able to live this commandment. The spirit was so strong in the lesson and Miguel and Lydia then told us that they had all their papers, everything and wanted to get married as soon as possible. But the thing that impacted me the most was that Lydia told us that for her that wedding wasnt so important, that it could even be just them and their witnesses, what she wanted the most was to get to the temple one day. The temple is the house of God, I can testify that and it should be the endpoint of all we do in this life.

Anyways I love this Christmas season because everything testifies of chirsts birth. My invitation to everyone for this season is to take a depth breath, relax during the crazy rush to buy presents, and focus on family and the reason for the season, Our redeemer Jesus Christ.

Lots of Love

CENA DE MISIONERAS DE ZONA

THANKSGIVING CENA!!!!!

BOLOGNESI WEEK#6.................CAPACITANDO!!!!!!

Buenos dias familia and friends.

Greetings from San Juan de Miraflores, Lima! Nope I didnt get transfered to a new area, Im just staying with the sisters here until my companion arrives tuesday. So thats the big news, my new companion arrives from the Peru MTC because Im training!! Its crazy because I feel like only yesterday I was just arriving in the mission. Im abit nervous to train but I know God has trusted in me because he knows I can do it and that I have alot to learn from the experience.

Anyways the sad news was that Hna Martos left. Shes in Nazca now, which shes super excited about because everyone says its very nice. Shes not so excited about the heat there as shes arriving in the middle of the burning south summertime. SO i am just so very thankful for the opportunity I had to serve with her this last month and a half. She is such an amazing, patient and loving person, and Ive learned so much from her.

So this week was great even though alot of our appointments fell thorugh and we walked alot. Nevertheless we were able to see miracles as our invesatigators with baptismal dates were able to progress and weve been able to witness how their testimonies have grown.

This thursday was very special because in the morning we were able to go to the temple as a zone. I AM SOOOOO THANKFUL FOR THE TEMPLE: It is honestly the closest place to heaven on Earth and a testament that the church is true. In the afternoon, the zone leaders put together a thanksgiving feast for all of us of turkey, potatoes, beans, causa, arroz con leche, pizza and APPLE PIE! It was so good. Then while we ate we all went around the table and shared our testimonies and what we were thankful for. It was so wonderful.

Anyways, sorry for no pictures this week I left my camera in my area. But next week I have alot to send.

LOTS OF LOVE,

Hermana Mostert
