August 15th- August 21st, 2017



Holllaaaa friends! Wow has it been a good, packed week.

Today Hermana Bailey and I went to make lunch and eat with the Arias
family so we don't have a ton of emailing time. But this week was
awesome and I want to write about a few highlights. So here we go!

Tuesday was a normal Tuesday filled with meeting with our ward mission
leader and discussing the needs of investigators, teaching English
class and going to the ward family home evening. Elder Weenig, my
first district leader from when I was in Elche came to visit with his
family and when he saw me he said, "Hermana Moore?! You're still
here?!" "Yep, still here." :)

This Thursday we had zone conference and interviews with President
Andersen. In zone conference the zone leaders and Hermana Bailey and I
taught a lesson about how we can work with the youth more. Conference
was really uplifting and I'm excited to apply what I've learned.

Exchanges. We had exchanges with our favorite Albacete Hermanas,
Hermana Dos Santos and Aasee. We had a lot of cool finding miracles
and we felt God's guidance.

Santiago. Santiago is our wonderful investigator from Colombia. He is
progressing really well and is praying about baptism! He is really
intent on gaining his own testimony and we are so excited to help him
develop one! He comes to the ward FHE, Rosanna's FHE, English class,
church, AND he meets with us twice a week. He's awesome.

Domestic hour. A few weeks ago, Hermana Bailey and I started a joke
that sisters have an extra hour every day to learn home-making skills.
Sewing, scrap booking, baking, etc. We started it with a few Elche
elders and then it spread to the Alicante elders too. They bought it
for a little until we got too obvious about it. But we still kept it
going as this big joke. We drop little comments like, "oh, do you have
a recipe I can turn out during domestic hour?" As week ago, we started
making jokes about how overwhelmed we are with all the ties we have to
make for some conference. They knew it was a joke, but they still
said, "wellll we want ties too!"  So we took one of my old skirts and
cut it into strips and made them ties! Bahaha. Hermana Bailey and I
keep things fun. :)

Hermana Bailey and I are trying to work with members more and during
weekly planning we made a lot of plans to do it. We prayed that the
hearts of the members would soften and that they would let us into
their homes. As soon as we said amen, a member called and invited us
to eat! She was a member on our list to work with! God is aware of His
children. :)

Have a wonderful week everyone! I love you all!

Love, Hermana Moore

Hermana Aasee and Hermana Dos Santos.


 Allison is an incredible member and she helped us out in our lesson during zone conference!
