September 11, 2023 Muchos MILAGROS para mis dos meses!!

 Hola Amigos, 


This week has been full of so many miracles!! I have also hit TWO MONTHS on the mission and it seems like everyday more doors are opening! We have had so many lessons and it is a miracle that in almost every lesson we have a member who comes and shares their experiences and testimony. I now totally understand why bringing members to lessons is encouraged. These members' strength and love for this Gospel is inspiring! 

Amazing Member Participating Lessons!!

We were able to share with Laura and her whole family the introducción of El Libro de Mormón. A sweet member from the ward befriended this family and was able to bear testimony of the truthfulness and power of El Libro de Mormón!

We also met with Emily and her child and shared with her 2 Nefi 4:19-21. They have just moved from Venezuela, and have experienced some hardships. This scripture emphasizes how God is our support and can lead us through all trials and tribulations. We had Luciano (who is a recent convert and preparing for his mission) share his experiences with the Gospel and recently moving to the United States. It was a beautiful lesson. Yesterday Emily came to Church for the first time, and we couldn't be happier for that miracle!! 

We had a dinner lesson with Hermana Castro from our ward! She is renting out one of her rooms to Marco who just moved to Utah for Nursing School. He is not a member but is always open to listening to lessons. After dinner we shared a short lesson with Hermana Castro and Marco joined!! So we had another amazing member lesson! After Marco shared with us how grateful he is for our faith and willingness to befriended and serve him. He is strong in another faith but thanked us for the work we are doing to share the Words of Christ! His kind words made our day!! 

The power of the Spirit!!

This week we had a Restoration lesson with Paula and I was able to share the Primero Visión en español!! As I shared the experience of Joseph Smith the church building filled with a spirit that was indescribable! After I shared the Primero Visión we asked Paula what she felt. At this point I was struggling to hold back tears and I watched as she struggled to describe the spirit we were feeling. She pointed at the picture of Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ appearing to Joseph Smith, and said very simply "I feel that! I feel that experience!"

This experience will always be a testimony to me of the Power of the Holy Ghost, it WILL proclaim truth! And sure enough after the spirit was at an all time high, the door in the church building had to creak open and some people walked in. I guess my MTC teacher, Hermano Savage was right when he said that every time he shared the Primero Visión there was always a distraction that would try to take away that powerful Spirit! Nice try Satan jaja.

But seriously this work and the Power of the Gospel of Jesucristo is amazing!! I'm so glad I get to see the way it changes me and my Amigos every week!! Love you all and please remember La respuesta siempre es JESUCRISTO :))

Love, Hermana Ross

Crumbl!!

November 25, 2024: My Heart if Full

Image
  Well this is it, my last mission email!! Time has flown by. I can't believe my mission is coming to an end this week!  I don't want to make this too long but I just want to write a few words of gratitude! Over these 18 months I have truly been changed! I have seen miracles happen every single day and through the Lord and his work I have been so blessed! I have loved every minute of meeting people from all over the world in Salt Lake City and Barcelona Spain! My mission means everything to me and the people that I have met have changed me!  Most importantly I have come to know my Savior Jesus Christ! I know he lives, he loves us! Everything that he did was for us and the immense love he has! He is my greatest example and my best friend! I know he has walked with me through every phase of my mission! I want to be better because of him but more often than not he has been there to pick me up when I fall!  I love my Heavenly Father and truly have felt his love for me on...

November 4, 2024: Prayers for Valencia

Image
  Hola!!! These past two weeks have been crazy! There has been major flooding in Valencia and in Catarroja which was my first area here in Spain! My heart goes out to all of the people that I know and love!! Please pray for the sweet people of Valencia they need your prayers! The work here in Sabadell has been pretty normal besides all the rain which leads to plenty of canceled lessons but we are still going strong!  We have found a few new families in our area and they are progressing so well! First is Precious and here two boys! They are from Nigeria and we get to teach this sweet family in English which is quite a change for me! The first time we met with this sweet family we taught 3 Nefi 11 and they loved it! Precious started tearing up as she shared who Jesucristo was to her! One of her little boys was listening to the lesson with wide eyes fully engaged! I showed him a small painted card of Christ coming to the Americas to show him that Christ is our resurrected Savior!...
