December 11, 2023: Conferencia de Zona with Elder Alliaud!

 Hola :))


I hope you all had such an amazing week! The work here was slower this week mainly because Spain had a few days of Festivos. The streets were pretty empty and a lot of people were traveling but we definitely had a few milagros!! 

First and foremost was Conferencia de Zona and we had a member of the Seventy, Elder Alliaud come and speak and he was incredible! He spoke in the October 2019 General Conference about the Power of the Book of Mormon and it was powerful! We talked a lot about how to teach with the Spirit and use the Power that is found in the Book of Mormon! I learned so much and received so many answers to better my teaching here in Spain! 

Our amigos amaze me everyday with their faith and love of this Gospel! Hugo and Glenda are praying about a fecha de bautismo!!! They are an incredible couple and are so ready to take this first step on the covenant path! Please continue to pray for them and the growth of their testimonies :) 

We had a huge milagro this week while street contacting! We were about to head home but we saw this man on a bench and we knew we needed to talk to him! We talked to this man in the park and invited him to church! He said yes and we were honestly super shocked because of all the rejection we had got that day! We gave him our number and the address for the capilla and HE CAME! He is awesome and really loved sacrament meeting, and wants to learn more about the church! 

Another fun little miracle was I met Nahuel! He is leaving on his mission soon and is always willing to help us out in lessons!! He knew my sister during her time in Catarroja! He had a picture that he had taken with her and we knew we had to recreate it! Such a small world and so many fun memories to share with my family! 

I get to see first hand how this Gospel can change lives and bring the light of Christ! The Book of Mormon holds so much power and I invite each of you to study it daily! Through its words we can find healing power and feel the love of our Savior Jesus Christ! Love you all so much! 

Love, Hermana Ross ♡

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!...
