Happy Monday everybody!!!                                                                                                        May 21, 2018  This week has been full of miracles, but before I explain, I would like to mention Jack LaFollete. Jack passed away recently, but I know that his example has impacted my life. He was a wonderful example of humility and diligence, I will never forget his sweet and unmovable testimony. Grateful for him and all his family. Hermana Perez and Hermana Roe had a great Pday! This week we were walking down the street in our fav fraccionmento Santa Ana when we contacted a man, his wife, and one of their children on their bikes. Their were just arriving from work. We contacted them like ...

Hello all, Loved getting to see all of your wonderful faces on Sunday!!! ! It never ceases to amaze me how much I love my family.  This week was full of working and finding lots of new people to teach. We contacted one woman, se llama Linda, right before heading home one night. She told us about how she wasn't sure about any church, and had already read the bible 2 times. When we presented the book of Mormon, her entire expression changed. She told us that of course she was like to learn more, and was very interested. Got to see my friends at our zone conference!!!   Add caption I know that all of the miles walked and people that reject us, there is always somebody who just needs a smile and someone to help them get on the right path. Don't let the world harden you, keep on smiling. There is always something to laugh about. So be happy! God has already overcome the world. I like this one even though it's got a dot on her face. I am looking right at her a...

April 20,2018 Lo, we have left all, and followed thee.   (Luke 18:28)     Happy Monday everybody! This week has been nothing short of a surprise. I have a story to tell you. So on Thursday we went to the Malecón do exercise (Villarreal and I peppered with our new volleyball, it was the best) And at the end we were cooling down and walking the malecón. I began to pray about cambios, even though the cambios aren't going to happen until next week. I asked if I was going to leave Zapata. I felt a blanket of peace come over me and knew that I was going. So I felt good and decided that I was going to enjoy these final couple of weeks in Zapata. We got back to the house and were preparing breakfast when we got a call from Presidente Haws. He said, "Well Hermana Roe, your time has come! You have cambios!" Unfortunately a Hermana decided to go home. I had an hour to pack before we had to travel for Villahermosa. I realized that God had answered my prayer earlie...
