Hi Everyone,
Hope
you all are enjoying the Christmas season! Here I am enjoying the heat
(well ok not really, but it's okay) and I also enjoyed our baptism
yesterday! We had a baptism yesterday and it was really great. It's my
first baptism where I was actually there for all the lessons and saw his
transformation unlike the other times where I just swoop in at the
end....

His name is Harrington and he is super awesome. He has a friend
in the ward who just left on a mission two weeks ago and he said that he
is his motivation. He said he needed this change in his life and he was
so receptive to the gospel. He was so ready to hear our message and
accepted everything so quickly. He wants to serve a mission and is just
so great. I was even more happy that the YSA welcomed him and included
him and he really feels like part of the ward. I really am so blessed to
be in this ward and to see the progress of so many of God's children.
Also, remember that you can be an example to those around you. Like I
said, Harrington's motivation to change was his friend. We have the
power and responsibility as members of the Church to teach our friends
and family and be examples of our Savior Jesus Christ. Continue to
strive to be the example that he would have you be. People notice what
you do and say.
Also,
my trio is breaking! Hermana Vera is going home on Thursday and I just
don't know how I feel about that...

She is such a great missionary and I
have learned so so much from her. She is so funny and has the spirit
and is really one of my best friends. I am going to miss her so much but
I feel blessed to have had the opportunity to work with her. Now
Hermana Colachagua and I have to brave it on our own. Hermana Colachagua
only has like 2 weeks more than me in the mission so we're just a
couple of newbies here in Florida but it's great. She knows so much and I
can't wait to see what this week brings.
I
am so grateful for the chance to be a missionary and to preach the
gospel. I still can't speak Spanish fully and I am learning the ways of
missionary work but the Lord really is my shepard and helps me so much.
Continue to walk in the paths of righteousness and look to Him in all
things! Love you guys!
P.S.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE BEST DAD IN THE WORLD!!! Don't mind my crazy
hair......it's hot here....
Love,
Hermana Roylance
