One more Battle Conquered

Hey guys! This week has been great! I´m loooovin´ my comps and I´m feeling very happy! (It´s hard not to be happy doing the work of the Lord :D)

Like the title says, one more battle has been conquered because... GABRIELA FINALLY AGREED TO BE BAPTIZED. Yes, I repeat, Gabriela is going to be baptized. It´s been amazing to see her transform from being an Atheist, to knowing how to pray and receive answers from God and then learning how to act upon those answers. She´s received lots of confirmations from God and after a couple of VERY long lessons and lot´s of encouraging, she finally overcame her fears and marked her baptism for this thursday :)

This week we had zone conference! And the insanse thing was, is that it was my last zone conference! AH! The time has definitely flown by... But I loved the Spirit I was able to feel as President and Sister Houseman taught us! Fun fact about President Houseman-- his profession is studying insects. He practically travels the world gathering insects and studying them haha. In the zone conference he used a super cool example about ants that I want to share with you guys--

Everyone knows how ants walk in a perfect line, one following the other, right? But how is it that the one at the front knows where it´s going? President Houseman taught us that ants have an invisible chemical that they can release from their bellies for the others to be able to smell. And so when one finds food, or the ant hole, he releases that chemical for the others to smell and follow it. And so they always have this invisible force guiding them. President Houseman compared that invisible force to the Holy Ghost. The Holy Ghost isn´t something that we can see, but it´s a gift that God has given us to always guide us and help us through our lives. I´m so grateful for the Holy Ghost and know that He truly does guide us and helps us to stay on the right path!

I hope that everyone has a great Pioneer Day today!! I´m so grateful for those brave early saints that had enough faith and courage to do all that Heavenly Father asked of them to bring to pass the restoration of the Gospel in these last days!

Love you all!
