Sorry for the short email but I'm not complaining! Pensamiento espiritual: This week there was something on my mind that I just couldn't shake! Thinking of what I am doing here, is crazyyy!!! I love being here and being a missionary! And how so many of our friends and just random people will tell us anything about their life and when I say anything I mean ANYTHING, and we're some complete strangers it's crazy! But I love seeing all our friends testimonies grow so fast and so much! I have so much love for all of our friends! Have a greet week everyone! - Hermana Bailey<3

Week 8 (Orlando, Florida) Happy New Year!!!

 ¡Hola Amigos! Hope everyone is doing great, I know I am!! This week was super great and went by super fast! That's pretty much how all the days feel like, I wake up and then all of a sudden it's 10:30 pm and I'm back in bed! I guess time flies when you're out sharing the gospel!  We met a lot of new friends this week and put a few of our friends on date to be baptized! One of our friends set his date pretty late in January but every time we have a lesson with him he moves it up! So our last lesson with him he told us he wants his wife to be at his baptism and she works a lot so he is going to see if she has a day off THIS WEEK!! We are hoping and praying that she does so he can make this amazing covenant with Christ and keep progressing in the Gospel, we are so excited for him! It's so inspiring to see all our friends continuing on the covenant path! I don't think I talked about this in my last email but maybe I have, I got to meet my district last Monday and t...
