Week 19: Missionary Life, Bishops blessing, Meant To Be



One of my friends always asks me how life of a missionary is... The truth is that it’s AMAZING and never the same. Sometimes I have no clue what I am doing or where I am going and then we see a miracle, or every appointment we had fell through this week and I’m angry because these people aren’t progressing. But in the end, I know that I’m doing this on faith. With faith, EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE. Every day is completely different, and usually everything is done on the fly. Which means that when we plan, we usually don’t use what we plan and just start asking questions until we receive revelation on what we should teach these people.

Yesterday I got a blessing from the bishop. Don’t worry my health is perfect now, and I’m doing great! I just wanted guidance. Wanted comfort that what we were doing was right. I would love to testify that the POWER of the Priesthood is real! That Joseph Smith restored this power on the earth. We have the opportunity to talk to Heavenly Father, and receive direct guidance from him. I surprisingly understand everything that the bishop said and it was the perfect blessing that I needed. I know that I am in the right place. I’m meant to be here. I have sisters here that are waiting to listen to me speak in Spanish to them and share the gospel! I know there are people here that only I can teach! I now just have to go find them! :)

Life as a missionary is a wonderful time. I’m not looking forward to the time I don’t get to put on my plaque every morning. I am glad that I am representing The Hansen’s. It is a great blessing to be here in Peru, in the Heat, talking to these Amazing people! I have learned so much from Bellamar (my area).

Sorry I didn’t write this much this week. Just know that I know God lives and Loves us. That we are his children, and he is always here to help and listen to us! I love this Gospel, and I am so glad that I know it is true! I love you all. I thank you for your examples, love and prayers. I feel them in my life every day. #ILOVEYOU!!!! Have a nice grand week, say your prayers every day and have a conversation with Heavenly Father.

Ps. I think I am Peruvian because I littered and I didn’t even feel bad about it. These people are weird when it comes to things. And trash is everywhere. It’s going to be an adjustment when I get back to the states! :) haha. Don’t worry it was just an apple core. :) (This is meant to be funny... I hope you laughed!)
