Wherefore, ye must press forward with a steadfastness in Christ, having a perfect brightness of hope, and a love of God and of all men. Wherefore if ye shall press forward, feasting upon the word of Christ, and endure to the end, behold, thus saith the father: Ye shall have eternal life. -2 Nephi 31:20

Oficina week 19 -

Bon día my fam,
Mom you sound super busy!!! But that´s good you´re learning more Spanish. If you ever have some extra plane tickets to Asia again when I´m back, don´t be shy to ask me. And it´s only 5 years? I thought it would be at least 10! Have they always had the assignment for only 5 years?
Tuesday was transfers! 12 new missionaries came in and only 3 left. Next transfer is going to be even more insane. There´s going to be 21 missionaries that are going home and 17 are coming... We´re already making plans on how we´re going to do it. Because the mission is growing so much, President is going to send missionaries up to Andorra where I went to a couple of times. It´s the only area in the mission right now that isn´t open. Elder Krasnoselsky and Elder Morrison are going up there!! I´ve been working on getting a piso up there and it´s still in process. President just told me about it about a week and a half ago so i´ve been trying to get it done quick. Hopefully they´ll be up there this weekend.
I love being with Elder Garces. We think alike and know what we have to do and we just do it. I hope I don´t get transferred soon because we know the Lord is starting to pour out blessings upon us and our area and we´re going to have success. This last week we´ve seen a ton of miracles. We had a lot of goals set up and we knew if we worked our hardest and did our part, the Lord would make up for the rest. Saturday morning we started with 6 lessons for the week just because of a busy week in the office and we didn´t take as much time to plan out our days during the week. Sunday night we ended with 20 lessons. Obviously it´s not about numbers, but the more lessons we´re teaching, the more people are progressing. I know that the Lord blessed us with those opportunities because He knew we would be willing to do it. We were dead tired at the end of the weekend but it was the best feeling ever knowing that we were well used by in the Lord´s hands.
The reality of this gospel becomes more and more true for me every day. The companionship of the Spirit is real. We are entitled to the guidance of the Lord if we are worthy and willing to do His will. Pray for our investigators. Pray for our area. I love you all

Elder Reeves
