My week has been really good, we had a mission tour with Elder Dyches from the 70. He is really great and taught us a lot and it really gave me some good advice of things that I can really work on! Also it was great because all the missionaries from the other islands got to come here so I was able to see 2 of my friends from the MTC and Nathan Smith! Talk about small world especially because it's his last transfer this transfer.

Anyways it was Hermana Trone's last week and I'm writing from the Larsen's house because Hermana Larsen is my companion until my companion gets here this week on Wednesday because there's no other hermanas on this island. Why Wednesday you my ask, that is so far away.. yes it is far away but I have to wait until the because I am training... yes I am receiving a companion straight out of the MTC that may not speak Spanish like I didn't only 4.5 months ago. And I will have to teach her how to be a missionary... oh man! What responsibility! I'm excited and nervoud, I just really ask that you please pray for me. 

This week I have been reading around Alma 17-29 and I love it because it is all about missionary work! I mean really that's what we're here to do on this earth is to learn about God and His plan and then do what He asks, which is keep his commandments and make and keep covenants and then teach other people about it. I love reading about things that we can relate to in the scriptures. Really there are a lot of things that are relatable in the scriptures if we just pray to have our eyes opened to it. 

This week was a bit strange with the mission tour and it being Hermana Trone's last but we had some great lessons with our investigator that has been making some really big steps and changing his life. Also we met with a lot of members that I love so  much! 

I'm getting prepared for this week when my companion comes, I'm excited to work in this part of the Lord's vineyard, I am grateful that Jesus Christ makes it so that we can change and have our past mistakes washed away. I am also glad that we can always become better with His help. I am grateful to work in this part of the Lord's vineyard. I love the people in Las Palmas. 

Love 
Hermana West
