Adios Federal Way

 Hello hello!! Happy October!! It's been a crazyyyy past few weeks but life is good here in Washington. I hope you all are enjoying fall!! 

It's been a jammed pack couple of weeks to finish up my sixth transfer here in Federal Way. We finished up exchanges, had an awesome MLC, taught a lot of lessons, I got bit by a dog in a trailer park (I'm fine haha), got drenched by rain and had transfer calls!! As everyone expected, I'm leaving Federal Way after 9 months serving here. My mission president released me as a Sister Training Leader for my last 6 weeks and I'll be heading up north to Bothell! This was surprising news as I'm heading back to the Lake Washington Ward where I started my mission! It's slightly different now but I will basically have 2 areas for my entire mission...hahaha it'll be interesting. I'm excited to finish strong!! 

I'm so grateful for the time I've had to serve here in Federal Way. The Dumas Bay Spanish Branch has become so special to me. I can't help but think of the many miracles and heart touching experiences I've had with these members, recent converts and investigators here! There isn't a group of Hispanics more focused on missionary work than they are. My testimony truly changed here as I saw the Atonement of Jesus Christ work in my life and the life of my friends. Nothing beats that feeling! I'll be thanking my Heavenly Father for a long time for giving me such great opportunities to grow here in Federal Way. I've found my second family! #fedforever 

I hope all of you had the chance to watch General Conference this past weekend!! It was amazing as usual. I felt the messages speak to my heart and answer my personal questions throughout all the sessions! I'm happy I had another General Conference as a full-time missionary. It's a special feeling. 

I only have time for a quick update today but I hope to write a few more emails to you guys in the next few weeks. Have an amazing week in the beautiful fall weather!! Prayers are always appreciated. Love you!!!

Sending love from rainy Seattle!!

Difícil es bueno.
