One of our members
says that about New Mexico and Sister Orton and I just loved it. So I thought
hey, I've gotta share that and give everyone a kick out of it haha. Super funny
though right?!
ANYWAYS!! Once
again I'm running low on time so I'll make this short!
Sister Orton and I
have been studying about our Savior and his visitation to the people in the
Americas. We've been sharing 3 Nephi 11:12 and as we have been talking about
how the Nephites were able to feel the prints in the hands of the Savior, it
hit me that not only did he take so much time and let each of them come and
feel his hands, not only did each of them have to feel for themselves to know
that it really was him, but I am sure that as he let them feel his hands he
thought of the moment in the Garden that he spent thinking of them. I'm sure he
told them that he knew. He knew them personally and knew what they were going
through. I'm sure some of them he turned to and told them that it would all be
alright. Or to some he simply told them that He loved them. I'm sure each
person that came to feel His hands got to hear exactly what they needed
directly from our Savior. As I've been thinking of that it just hit me that He
really truly does know each of us. On such a personal level and wants us to
know that. No, He needs us to know that so that we can learn to rely on Him
full heartily and as we know that we come to know that we are not alone. We are
never alone. He is always there. In fast he always carries us and helps us
every step of the way.
I love you all
lots and I want you to know that our Savoir, Jesus Christ, knows you. Don't
ever forget that.

FUN FACTS:
1. We went to see
Sister Petty and she had some friends over but they only spoke Spanish and so
we literally sat there for like 20 minutes as they carried their conversation
in Spanish. According to Sister Petty our mission language has officially been
changed to Spanish haha
2. It's the best
when you are walking down the street and you've OYMed all of the mail people
and so everyone of them honk and wave at you, and if they can they pull over
and talk with you. There is one mailman that, without fail, will pull over as
fast as he can and shout "SISTERS!! HOW ARE YOU!" It just makes my
day(:
One of our investigators gave us this dream catcher
with this guy in the middle and it's kinda weird so we had to take a picture |
Hermana Bigley and
I when we were tracking in the hail.
Yup, that was fun

It's the most
exciting moment
in the life of a Missionary
when you get the Conference
addition of the Ensign(((:
and yes selfies are still cool
right? haha

My favorite comments, having lived in NM 3x were: 1. Do they speak English there? And 2. Do you have to have a passport to go There? Seriously!
