Wednesday was my last Consejo de Lideres. Ah. I bore my last testimony, along with the Sisters and Elders that are leaving with me at the end of transfer. It was surreal. Honestly I never was able to process it. I still don´t feel like the mission is coming to an end. Hermana Carpio, Stoker, Juchau, and I sang a special musical number (attached below).
We are starting this week with a practically empty planner. We either dropped or were dropped by so many of our investigators this week. Quite honestly this week was a bit heart wrenching. Families... progressing investigators... telling us that they didn´t want to hear more. The Lord must have something great in store, and He´s just making room for it. We just need to exercise greater faith and keep looking. He will work wonders. ¨..man doth not comprehend all the things with the Lord can comprehend,¨ (Mosiah 4:9) He has a greater plan. Greater than any of us could ever imagine. I know that He lives and that He loves us. This is His church, restored on the earth. I love you all, Keep shining, Hermana Shaw

Wonderful, Aldo. Could you tell me where you live? That would help me direct you to the nearest church building. We meet together in geographically organized groups. Great to hear from you.
