Hello my wonderful family and friends! I love hearing from you every week! I am so happy that Kyle's and Katrina's party went so great and that everyone was able to be there together under one roof :) I love family and I love all of you!!
Life as a missionary is incredible. Seriously it is the best! Everyday we get to go out and talk about the thing that is most precious to us! The best news in the world! The restored gospel of Jesus Christ! The gospel has been restored!!! I just want to shout it from the roof tops :) I am so grateful to have this gospel of Jesus Christ in my life. It is my life! Everything that I have I owe to my Savior. I feel so blessed to be a missionary in this time when the work is beginning to hasten. I am so grateful to be a full time servant of the Lord and put His name on my shirt everyday to show the world what I believe and who I represent! How great is my calling!?
The branch in Borrego is amazing! The sisters in the Branch asked us our favorite colors (in secret) all though they weren't the sneakiest, they are so cute! Anyway at the Christmas Party they gave us the most beautiful quilts! I almost cried haha. I think it is one of the most precious gifts I have ever received, which I will treasure forever. All of these women working together to make us this amazing gift.. I feel my Saviors love everyday. The people in California have stolen my heart. I love them so dearly.
We had 2 investigators at church on Sunday! One was the Dad of Christen, his name is Jose. He was also at the Christmas party. I love him. We need to get into his heart, I know that him and his two sons will get baptized. Salvador wasn't able to come to church but he has been reading! And he came to the party. AND MAX came to church!!! which was an amazing miracle because we haven't been able to talk to him in over 2 weeks. He just came on his own, this little 17 year old boy. He is amazing and I know once we start teaching him he is going to be baptized. He is an honest seeker of truth.
All I want is for everyone to be baptized. To have this incredible gift of the Holy Ghost, to live happier and better lives! To know who they are and where they are going. It is all in the Lord's time. Heavenly loves His children and He wants them to be happy and to live with Him and His son again one day.
I love you all so much!!! Remember who you are: you are a son or daughter of GOD! The most glorious being in the universe. Strive to live the best you can everyday. And read the scriptures. There is protection there and from also saying your prayers. So will you read your scriptures and pray daily?... (I'm imagining you all said yes) :) Thank you. (do I sound like a missionary to you??)) I promise as you strive to live each of the commandments and align your life with God you will find a better sense of love and gratitude for the people around you. You will do better in school and work and you will find greater happiness that you didn't know was possible!
I love you all!!
Con Amor,
Hermana McCartt
