Arlington; Sunnyside Branch - Week 3

YO FAM. What's good?

These past couple of weeks have been rough, but I'm finally getting the hang of this mission thing. Finding has been hard, but I'm learning a lot!!

This past Tuesday, we were trying to visit some interested people in a certain area and I just felt super impressed to go knock on a certain door, so I just started walking and my companion chased after me. Haha. I pounded on the guy's door because he was listening to music super loud, and he opened up after I explained that we were missionaries he said that we were a sign from God and that he had been praying for someone. I know. I KNOW. Freaking dope. I love this gospel. Revelation is lit. I had a couple more experiences like that these past couple days and it has been awesome. God answers prayers.

This week I had to teach the restoration in Spanish at a baptism and I did it!!! So that was awesome. I got a lot of compliments on my Spanish even though I'm pretty sure it was 10/10 not great. I'm starting to really understand the Spanish though and I'm really glad for that. Pray for my Spanish!!! I can feel your prayers and they mean the world.

So far the mission has taught me a lot about things I never thought the mission would teach me about. All in all, I guess I'm just learning about how to deal with crappy situations in adult ways.

There are also great things, too though!!! Like this week I got to help some members with their garage sale/bake sale. We helped them make cupcakes and it was super fun. God is good. Washington is a great place to be. 

Today we went to the beach so that was super fun. Washington is really pretty, so I'm thankful for that.

I love you guys and I'm so thankful for all you guys. I pray for all of you guys siempre. God loves you!!! Because Christ suffered for us, he perfectly understands us. He knows your limits, he knows your trials. Trust in him. Bring all of your trials to his feet and he will lift you up. He will edify you as you humble yourself before him. You can do hard things!!! Keep on keepin' on, fam.

Love you all,
Hermana Jimenez

It's also my 2 month so YAY!!!
