A lot of people think that been in the mission field is always been in a heavenly peace. Well let me tell you that the only way to think that is been a person that have never been in the mission field.
In the mission field you are living day by day with people tat you had never live with, and there is always thinks that make hard to get alone with people in sometimes. Well these last two weeks were like that, for me was very hard to be here, but thanks Jesus that he gave us the victory in his name and everything is okay again. Another think is that 3 missionaries leave the same day, that leave us the ones who stay with sadness because we will miss then and with more work :p.
One of the harder things that I have seen since I am a missionary is that you are in the mission field and then the people that you know in the mission field become not just friends but family, and when they leave is so hard, because you stay and there is always people coming and leaving, writing this things I remember people like Steve, Wendy, Joni, Chandler, Amy, Nina, Corina, Jennifer, Grant, Connor, Daniel, Ricardo, Lolly, Judith… Excellent people, excellent missionaries, some of them aren’t here because they went to other mission field, other ones because they went to study and other ones just because they had enough of mission life.
This is even harder for the kids because they get to love and trust people and then they leave..
Anyway… the good thing is that you learn that Jesus is the only one that always will be there, the other day one of the little girls told me.. “You know teacher.. is sad that the missionaries come and never call or anything but we at least have our Heavenly Father that always will be there, that will never leave us”. And at least that make me happy that the kids are learning to leave their hopes and the most of their trust in Jesus.
Everything is going well know, we are praying a lot for unity and for have a real “Happy Family”, so we are trying to have Sundays like a family day, this last Sunday we went to some waterfalls in the town. We had lots of fun.. was really good and that make us feel more like a family and not just like an institute, ohh and we are helping our neighbors a lot now, we start with a few helping them to harvest their rice and know there is lots of people that come and ask for help, this week we will be harvesting rice all week, and Thursday we will start harvesting our own rice, so that is going to be like a god training for our rice too.
Kids are learning that helping others is joyfully, I pray for all of you brothers and sisters and I hope that one day you decide to come to mission field and that you can get the lots of blessings that are waiting for you, im sure that God want each one of his child to be a Volunteer Missionary, is like after you live like this is hard not to think that, you have to live it to know what I am talking about.
Oh, by the way, I hope soon the English in this blog will be better because a sister is going to volunteer translating my writings in Spanish to English and that will be a lot easier for me, and a lot better for you that will be able to read this with a best English and better words.
Thanks for all your prayers..
God Bless you all!!!=)
