Hurricanes and Pants!

Hola mis amigos!

It's been a crazy week this week! We had a friend visit: Hurricane Matthew! He was great! We were having a grand ol time until he decided to get a little too crazy and we were evacuated to Tampa for a few days... x) It really was a fun week though! We holed up in Tampa with some other Missionaries and saw lots of miracles there! We came back, got back to work, and our stake went over to help the areas affected by the Hurricane! We couldn't leave our Mission Area, but it sounds like a lot of members went out to help!

In other exciting news, the Sisters in our Mission have been asked to change our wardrobe up a little bit! Due to the mosquitos in the area, and the disease called Zika, Sisters have been asked to wear pants during time spent proselyting. We got our new pants today, and it's certainly been an adventure!

Sorry to keep it short this week, it's been a little ridiculous!

I was just reading in Mosiah, when Alma established the first church in the Book of Mormon (Ancient Americas) and we were talking about the persecution that came with that establishment and the persecution that came with the restoration of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in 1830. It is true that there must needs be an opposition in all things, because the response was so similar! People going against the church, seeking to destroy it, many people being converted, the whole works! But through it all, God's love prevails! As long as we keep the faith, we will receive strength to overcome all of life's challenges!

I love you all! Have a wonderful week!
