OK I'm going to start of with a shout out to Austin for his 12th birthday! And also
to Kate for her birthday (we wont say how much) And for good measure to my mom for her
birthday in week and a half!!

Also thanks so much for all the birthday wishes, they mean so much to me!

Well this last week was a bit different than the others! We had Zone Conference and I was all prepared to talk to my mission president and tell him what it is really like here in Liniers. I was hoping beyond hope that he would tell me of his plans of closing Liniers and so that I would be going to another area this next transfer, well quite the opposite happened! In my interview he started out by asking me what good things are here in Liniers, it took me a little to think about it, and I started talking about random people trying to think of good things, and he said good, I want to tell you something, you are in charge of Liniers. I don't usually talk about transfers but it isn't a secret that your comp will be leaving (she goes home this transfer), and you will be in charge of Liniers, and we see that missionaries stay in an area for 5-6 transfers (1 transfer is 6 weeks). So you are in charge of changing Liniers, and Liniers will change in your time here
and you will be responsible for making that happen! He said it was very obvious to him that I was supposed to be here, he didn't really have plans for bringing me here in Liniers, I was in Nuñez set to spend a lot of time there, but one transfer and I came here to Liniers. He told me that it was blaringly obvious to him that the Lord wants ME here in Liniers, and that he feels like my personality and talents are the things that Liniers needs to change! WOW!!! I felt the whole world on my shoulders after that! It wasn't what I was expecting to hear, but well after that I had no other choice but change my mind about Liniers! Its going to change, It's going to go from the armpit of the mission, to the area that everyone wants to go!! That's my goal anyway!
After conference we had a lesson and we were able to put a baptism date, and we put another baptism goal yesterday, and we are finding and teaching and progressing a lot more! Our vision has changed!! It will be a lot of work, but I have been promised that I will see the fruits of my labors!! I just need to keep working hard, i cant just sit and wait for the miracles to come!!
Welp that is about all I have time for today, we have permission to leave our area today and go shopping, becaue I dont have winter clothes and it is freaking cold here now!! Wish me luck in finding stuff!!

Love y'all
