(I think we lost the beginning of Mandy’s letter here!)

They went around first asking what some talents people in the Bible had and then the teacher asked about people in the ward. What were the talents of Leanor…Hna Hoyo…and in that moment, God gave me an amazing gift.  I felt as though I could see these women in a different Light.  I could literally see their talents and see that God had so much more in store for them.  I was overwhelmed with love for them, I couldn’t help but cry!  I love these women.  What an amazing branch we have  here.  These women do so much, they have their families to take care of, jobs, their callings and many of them take the time to feed us and go out with us to some appointments. I love them, I can’t describe how much I just wanted them to feel that, to feel how much their Heavenly father wanted to bless them.
  I love the way the spirit Works and how we can always receive answers or we can learn things even when we are not expecting it!  I hope you all know how much God loves you.  Don’t ever forget it.  He wants you to be soooooo happy and so do I!  Please keep talking with Him and keep reading your scriptures.  They may sem. Simple, but they are soooo important.  I love you all, have a wonderful week!

So I got a call Tuesday night and they said, Hna Gibbons you are going to Train.  So I have a newbie, Hna. Olivares for El Salvador.  She is a cute girl and as we say in the mission I am her “mom” and she is my "hija" (daughter/child)!  So crazy, I’ve got to teach her the ropes, so you bet I’ll be working hard!  Right now we are working in a trio until we can find a mini (another companion, I think!) for Hna Mitchell, but I am still in Rafaela and I am pretty sure that I will be dying (finishing out her mission) here!  I love it!  I am sooooooooooo ok with that! 
Love ya, Hermana Gibbons
