Último Traslado !

 June 6, 2022

Hola hola !! 

Another week gone by and with this one another transfer as well! This week I'll be starting my last transfer which is absolutely loco. But the best news with the transfer is I'll be staying here in Unquillo y Rio Ceballos with my beloved Elder Romero to finish out!! There is so much potencial here for the next 6 weeks, I'm really praying and working to make the most of it. Being a missionary is a sacred privilege and I really felt that this week. We had some really neat miracles with our amigos so I'll just get into it! 

Amigos!! 

-Sofia. It has been a long road with Sofia but I have felt a lot for her. She does so much for the people around her but has had some major obstacles. But this week we had some more great progress! She had a great experience at an activity of the Relief Society, made it to church, and is starting to study Come Follow Me! We are praying super hard for Sofia that she can make it to baptism and make covenants soon. She really is awesome. 

-Angel y Lucía. The chicos are doing well!! We had to push back the date until the 25th of June because we are still working with Lucia's mom to get permission, Lucía at the age of 8 carries the Book of Mormon all around with her and reads every day. We are praying a lot for her as well that her mom's heart will be open. Angel as well is a stud and should be good for the 25th si o si. 

-Florencia. Huge miracle with this one!! We were going back through conversations with people who had previously been taught this last week and randomly called Florencia. Wow. Immediately she was super kind and willing to talk and it turns out that her daughter was baptized just before the pandemic and Florencia at the time was living with someone. But since then she is now separated and told us she she wants to be bapitzed!! We invited her to church and it was even more surprising when she said she had actually reached out to the bishop earlier that week to get a rude from him and his family. She was able to make it to church, knew almost all of the members from before the pandemic, and accepted a baptismal date for the 18th of June!! Seriously crazy and we are super grateful and excited. 

- Frederico y flia. Another wild tender mercy!! We were simply walking to our next lesson and actually in a less populated part of town when a car stopped and the man asked us where we were from. A pretty common question but normally not in this way. He was with his whole family and we were able have an incredible contact and the whole family seems golden. We are excited to visit them this week!! 

Última Cositas 

Last few highlights from this last week! 

- Elder Romero made empanadas Árabes. He is too good. 

- Visited an amazing Hermana in our ward on her 94th bday. Perseverar hasta el fin!! 

- Adding lemon peals to the lemon yerba elevated my mate to a whole new level 

- Got several referencias from members we are super excited about!! 

Pensamiento Espirtual 

This week I have been reflecting on my personal relationship with the Savior. It is such privilege to be able to be a full time representative of Him and share the message that He lives, He knows us, and His grace is avaiable to all. He is central to the Father's plan of mercy and makes it all possible. His love is real, infinite, and changes who we are. The joy and peace He provides is unlike any other. As I serve Him I have never been so consistently and resiliently happy in my life. I love Him and am so grateful for this time and excited to sprint to the finish in this last transfer. 

Just two verses about out Savior from this last week I'll leave! 

2 Nefi 25:26. Mosiah 3:17. 

Que tenga una muy buena semana!! Chau!! 

Amor, 

Elder Jackson
