Week 49: Arizona: I love to see the temple

 holis mis queridos!!


we got to go to the temple this week!! this was much needed oh my heck ive been craving the temple for months. the peace & spirit i feel there is unlike anywhere else.

exchanges this week were with sister beck in the granite reef/paradise valley area! sister beck is so amazing, i love how direct and intentional she is when testifying of Jesus Christ. that's something ive been trying to incorporate into my teaching this week.

honestly this week was pretty slow in terms of finding and teaching friends. we were able to get into a lot of member's homes and share Christmas messages though which i absolutely love:) 

invitation: pray for the Lord to send you on an errand this week. there are so many people struggling right now, pray for eyes to see who needs your help, and for the courage to act when you receive a prompting.

dont really have too much to update on this week lo siento!!

feliz navidad mis queridos!!

con mucho amor,

hna zayas

  dearest friends, thursday evening i was released from serving as a full time missionary for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. my heart is brim with joy & gratitude for the sacred privilege to wear my Savior's name over my heart for the past year and a half. i testify that He lives!! i know He does!! i bear witness of His divinity. i have seen Him perform miracles. i have seen him change hearts. i have tasted of His goodness, and I know & can promise you that He is the only way to lasting joy & peace in this life and eternal life in the life to come. He is good. always. He invites each of His to partake of His daily bread & living water, that which perisheth not & leaves our souls feeling whole. i know that although He has the power to deliver us from any trial or hardship at any given moment, sometimes He doesn't. and when He doesn't, it is all for our eternal good, for He knows all things from the beginning. yet i know that even in the ...

Week 7: Arizona: Where did Susie's Head Go?!

  Qué tal?! This was a miracle week!!!!! As I mentioned last week, we have been struggling to find people to teach. On Saturday we got a text from one of our bishops that basically said that a man named Jeff had texted him because he has been thinking about joining the church for a while and he loves watching General Conference and he basically wants to get baptized...ISNT THAT AMAZING?!?! So Hna Sleight and I called him up and he was super excited and was like "Let's plan a time to get together tomorrow after sacrament meeting" and we were like YESSSSS. We met him yesterday and he is the absolute sweetest he is so eager to learn more and fits right in to the ward. Like literally we are having our first lesson with him tomorrow at a member's house. He has so much member support which is honestly so awesome. That was definitely the highlight of our week. Another miracle: so we think our neighbors have been out of town for the past 3 weeks because this week they have st...

Week 4: Mexico City/Arizona: Goodbye Mexico CCM ;(

Image
  Hi there!! I am in Arizona!!! Ahhhhh today was a long day. I had to be at my bus ready to leave the MTC at 1:30am, so Hermana Gomez and I decided we just wouldn't sleep and instead did some cramping packing and had a nutella with toast party.  Saying goodbye to my district was hard, we all became such great friends, but saying goodbye to Hermana Gomez was so sad I was actually devastated. She is going to do amazing things in Mérida. Once I got to the Mexico City airport I realized there were a bunch of other missionaries too, yay!! One of the hermanas had a ukelele, so while we were waiting by the gate she started playing hymns while me and another hermana sang along. So there we were, 3 hermanas singing super loud, its 4 in the morning and everyone is half asleep... It was actually so fun even though people were given us weird looks ahaha. Once we landed in the Dallas Airport we had to go to recheck our luggage. One of my pieces of luggage was not zipped (it looked like som...
