Week #64 - This week... cold

Hola Familia!

What an awesome week. I survived my first bike week in 3 months... it was a little bit of a shocker especially since we got the week where the weather decided to drop down dramatically. But other than that and a super sore bum, everything worked out. And I am happy to announce that Hermana Smith and I debunked the running of South Spanish Sisters accidents during bike week. No one got hit by a car or broke both of their arms or got bed bugs! Hallelujah!

I finished reading the Book of Mormon looking especially for grace. It was so amazing, There is something marked on practically every page. What I've learned... do EVERYTHING right and you get ALL the blessings =D Super awesome formula right?!?

I am getting over my fear of talking to people on the telephone! Hermana Smith and I have taken it upon ourselves to call all of the contacts in our phone to try and set up an appointment and resume teaching them... you always are guaranteed an interesting experience talking with people you have never met before...

Ummmm... there was a lot of bundling up this week. Gotta say that I love wearing double tights, leggings, shorts, knee high socks, and a long skirt... you can't really move... but at least you are giving your mind the illusion of warmth.

One of the members in the branch has realized my love of scarves and brought me an my companion a scarf last Sunday! Super cute.

I have decided that I absolutely love the name Iveth. So don't be surprised if somewhere down the road I name a little girl that! lol (But that is WAAAAAAAYYYY down the road.)

Thank you so much for all the letters and e-mails! They are always the BEST!

November tis the season to be grateful! And I am so grateful for the gospel. It truly changes peoples' lives. The members', the investigators', the missionaries', every ones' lives are changed for the better as the gospel is embraced and lived to the fullest!

I hope you all have a wonderful week. And that it is filled with awesome missionary experiences. Also I invite you to make a special outreach to the Spanish missionaries in your area. They love member present lessons, rides, and food just as much as the English ones. LOL, it's true though!

Love,
Hermana Ives/Iveth
