MERRY CHRISTMAS!!! FELIZ NAVIDAD! Hope you all have the very best Christmas full of the people you love, bussin food, and of course the light of our Savior Jesus Christ! He really is the light of the world and Christmas is a great time that we can celebrate him! The world NEEDS his light!  This week was a LONG one. We had no success haha! Nobody was interested in hearing a message! We also had one friend that was progressing super well and he wanted to get baptized then yesterday he BASHED us. He said he believes the doctrine of our church but attacked us as people. He said we didnt serve enough didnt love enough and all we did was preach to people about Jesus Christ. He pretty much just roasted the type of people we were... Merry Christmas Eve to us ;)  As I thought more about this I couldn't help but reflect on my life and my actions. I could think of a million times where my actions were did not benefit those around me. And every single day I still need to be lots better at...

Hola! Hope all is good in the hood! I miss and love yall lots! MERRY CHRISTMAS WEEK! Hope it's a good one focused on our Savior!  This week we had transfers this week and I stayed with my companion hermana Duvall. And we gained a companion! Her name is Sister Dickson. She is from Salt Lake. She is super sweet! GRIND doesn't stop here in West Palm.  This week I have shared the importance of the Light of Christ. Life is always going to be hard! But I know as we rely on the Savior we can find his light. We can find his life by learning more about him! I hace found so often as I study HIM I come to know HIM!  I know Christ is our Savior and Redeemer and if we turn to him we will have everlasting peace and joy. I am grateful for his light in my life! Share his light this week!  Love Like Jesus Love, Hermana Peterson 

4 MONTHS

HELLO! This week was just like every other nothing special haha! We had our interviews with our Mission President but other than that we just were finding and teaching people! Most people do not care at all about what we have to say so thats hard. Its ok though it makes the ones that are interested even sweeter!  We have transfers this week and I'm officially out of training! Crazy! I also will hit 4 months as a missionary this week! So theres a little update!  One quick spititual thought this week comes from the Christmas Devotional! Elder Gong talked about how we need to focus on the change in people instead of their mistakes! This was a really powerful talk and message! Christmas is a time to focus on our savior and because of him WE CAN CHANGE! We just need to allow ourselves and those around us to change! Its hard to do but as we forgive those around us and ourseleves we are allowing the atonement of Jesus Christ to work and be a powerful tool!  Have the bestest week...

YO YO YO! Another week down! It was a wild week! I feel like I have been thrown in a million directions this last week! We had Zone Conference and we also had a Zone Blitz! So everyone swapped Companions for the day! Then we also had SOOO many lessons and SOOO many new people we found to teach!  On Saturday for our exchange I stayed in our area and I was Companions with a Native Spanish speaker! So we pretty much spoke Spanish ALL day! My brain was fried!!!  But we had a crazy miracle! Our friend Alejandra has wanted to get baptized for SOOO long but she hasn't been able to because her boss won't let her leave the house! And she also doesn't have a phone because it's been broken so we have struggled to get ahold of her! Well on Saturday I got a phone call from Alejandra asking if she could be baptized the next day!!!!! Well it took lots of calls and craziness but our ward came in clutch and she was baptized!  My spiritual thought this week comes from some experiences I ...
