Hola Familia! 

This week was a pretty good week! We are still working on getting to know all of the less active members here and there really are sooo many of them. We had about 65 last week that neither of us have met and know we have about 38 but its really a lot of work trying to find there houses because the house numbers are in orders such as, 12, 80,230, and then 16 so we just never know where to start to find the houses haha but it has been really good. We really want to activate the members here so that we can have a stronger branch to bring our investigators into. The people here are really amazing people. They all have such great potential and I know that we can truly see miracles here. This week we were able to find some really great new investigators and we are looking forward to teaching them this upcoming week! We are also going to be planning an activity for the first week of June and we are hoping that it will all go well. The weather here isnt as hot as I thought it would be but the mosquitos are horrible hahaha they are constantly biting us but it really is such a great place here. I really like being here and I really like working with Sister Rodriguez! We have a  lot of fun and work well together so it has been really enjoyable! I am glad to hear that you are all doing so well and that you guys had such a great week! It sounds like graduation went well and that you guys had a good start to summer! I hope that you guys have an another amazing week! I love you guys sooo much! Thank you guys for everything!!! 

Love always,

Such cute girls

 

 

These are the pictures she sent us from her last week in Vallarta.  She loved the people there so much and she is going to miss them like crazy!!!

San Blas

Hola Familia!

Well time in San Blas literally flies. I know I have said things like that like a million times but the days literally go by so fast here! I really like my new area! I miss Vallarta but I am happy to be here! There are alot of really great people here. Almost everyone here is realted and about 80% of the people here are members of the church however only about 5% of them acutally go to church so we have a lot of work to do in reactivating members and baptizing the other 20% of the town. haha This week has been really good. We spent a lot of the week looking for members we havent met yet and we found quite a few of them. The biggest blessing in this area is everyone knows or is related to a member of the church so they know quite a bit about the church and its really easy to find members to teach with us. It hasnt been too hot here and when it is hot its for a couple hours and then it cools down and at night it actually gets cold(: So that has been nice! SIster Rodriguez is awesome, she actually reminds me a lot of Ashli and we have a lot of fun. I was asked to talk in church yesterday haha and I was super nervous but it all went well! We also had zone class this week and it was weird having a zone class with a ton of missionaries I dont really know since my last 8 zone classes were in Vallarta where I knew more than half the missionaries really well. But overall it was a great week. I know this isnt a very long email but not a whole lot happened. We have some great goals for this transfer and there is really a lot of potential here in San Blas so I am sure it will be an amazing experience! I am glad to hear you guys are doing so well! I hope you guys have an amazing week! Please congratulate Jade on Graduation for me!!! I love you guys so much! 

Love always,

Transfer

Hola Familia!

It was so good to talk to you guys yesterday! You guys all seemed sooo happy and you all look great. I am glad that everyone is doing so good and that you are all enjoying all of your activities. 

I dont have a ton of time this week due to transfers but I am really excited to be here in San Blas. It reminds me a lot of Manzanillo. I am really excited to be here working with Hermana Rodriguez as well. She is a great missionary and I know we are going to be able to work really well together here (: I know this is really short but I promise to write more next week. I love you guys SOOO much and it was so good to see you all. I hope you guys have an amazing week! 

Love always,

Hermana Searle 

Little problems?? Ummmmm...do you mean riots and drug cartel?

Hola Familia!!! 

I hope that you guys are all doing well and that you are all getting as excited for Sunday as I am(: haha. 

This week was such a great crazy week! The begining of the week was pretty normal however the weekend was so crazy haha. On Thursday we had interviews with President Wagner. It was so great but at the same time it was sad because it was our last interviews before President and Sister Wagner finish their mission :( But I love interviews because it is a time when we really can ask for any advice, or ask whatever we want to ask President wagner and he always helps us to know how to best help the people we are serving. On Friday due to some little problems they have been having in Vallarta we were all told to stay in our houses all day but dont worry! The problem was solved and we are all safe (: But due to this, we werent able to have Suzannes interview on Friday for her baptism and almost had to change the whole thing for next week but we all prayed so hard that she would be able to be baptized and the ward and all the missionaries worked together to help us and Suzanne was baptized in Hna.Bettys swimming pool and it was such an amazing service! The spirit was sooo strong and her sister, Xitlalli recieved her answer and wants to be baptized next weekend(: It was so amazing! It was a lot of unplanned situations and Saturday we literally ran around Valle Dorado all day and made millions of phone calls but it all turned out so perfectly! I am so thankful for the way that prayers are answered sooo perfectly! I am thankful for the people that were all so willing to work together to help Suzanne be able to be baptized! When she was confirmed yesterday she told us she felt the spirit so strongly and knew that she had truly been forgiven of all of her sins! I am so happy for her(: Also, on thursday Edxon, Hna.Karlas little boy, was pretty sick and when we went to visit them Franco the older brother was soo sad. But yesterday when he bore his testimony he bore testimony of prayer and how he prayed and prayed for Edxon to be better and it worked(: And it was so simple but so cool to see how strong this little boys testimony is! It has been a really spirtually uplifting week here and  I cant wait to see what else this week brings! I am so excited for Sunday to skype with you guys(: But at the same time super nervous for transfer calls! haha but anyway! I love you guys sooo much and I hope you all have an amazing week(: 

Love always,

Hermana Searle
