Dear Everyone!
I hope that everyone has a great Christmas! Well, first of all, I have returned to another area...Plano, Texas. My new companion is Hermana Mata (Sister Killer) and she is from Mexcio! How lucky I am to get a companion from Mexcio...but the bad thing is that she is only going to be my companion for one more week! but i am going to make this week count. I am totally lost here in Plano, Texas. Usually, I know everyone by the 1st week but im totally lost!!We met with this one guy...I think his name is Carlos and lets just say that he wants to get baptized but he doesnt live a lot of the commandments! so, he wants evidence that the Book of Mormon is true, so he is reading 21 pages per day so that he can finish the Book Of Mormon in one month. However, he isnt feeling the spirit...he is just reading the Book of Mormon to read the Book of Mormon...he is lacking the intent. So, we are going to work with him on the intent part. I wrapped a lot of presents...that was fun and I had a great Christmas....we had a traditional Christmas dinner, then we had tacos for dinner. That was fun!!!! Well, everyone I hope that ya'll have a great week and I will see you next week!!
Love Always,

Merry Christmas!! :)
Dear Everyone,
Merry Christmas!!!! I am hoping that everyone is going to have a great Christmas weekend! I am leaving Grand Prairie, Texas and going some where else... where I don't know! But I will find out tomorrow.
Well, this week I got the stomach flu so we were only able to work on the weekend. But we got to set a baptismal date with Hector Montoya...Hector has been coming to church off and on for the past 3 years but was never able to get baptized because of legal problems. But they are all going to end and he is going to get baptized on the 30th of January! I love it because Hector knows a lot about the gospel that he even teaches his wife, who's been a member all her life. So, he is ready but he just need to feel ready,himself.
This week, we got to meet Fideial who was actually taught in another are but because of confusion, but she came to church! Fidela has a testimony about the church and wants to get baptized. however, she is supper busy with work, (She sells Mary Kay), but she is making time so that she can be ready and get baptized in the coming weeks. Rita, she is finally going to know if she can get baptized sometime in the next coming months, because she has a doctor appointment this thursday and we are going to find out! So, Pray for Rita!!
So, I have a random thought...so someone asked me to teach them how to knit. I knew I need to use all the skills I learned before the mission but I never thought anyone would ask me to teach them how to knit! So, here is a lesson, learn a lot about random things because they are going to come in handy! Plus, people are suprise how domesticated I am...despite the fact that im really not. haha.
Well, I love you all!!!

Christmas Season :)
Dear Everyone,
Hello! Well, I just wanted to write a quick little note…I'm heading towards the end!!! A new year is approaching and there is a lot of excitement in the air! Well, this week was a little slow because my companion got the stomach flu. But this week we got some members from the Relief Society to come a make cookies with Irene. So Irene has a bit more friends when she comes to church. Plus, Irene went to the ward Christmas party! The ward Christmas party was a lot of fun! We got a lot of our investigators to come so now they know a lot more people in the ward. Our investigators even got to know the Bishop of the Ward. So that’s always good.
This week we got to visit with Norma and her kids, we are still working on getting her married so that she can get baptized, but probably not this year. I am hoping that she getting married sometime next year.
We got to meet with Rita and she went to see the doctor but a medical student was their, and we all know how much medical students know about medical stuff. So, Rita is going to wait for her regular doctor to come back from the holidays so that she can get the green light to go and get baptized.
Oh yah we have a new investigator who name is Fildia. she was being taught but the Oak Cliff Elders…it’s a long story…long story short, she wants to get baptized and when we see her we are going to set a date with her.
Well, I hope that ya’ll aren’t freezing because its finally getting cold her in Texas! I hope that ya’ll have a great week!!!
Love always,
Sister Annie Beetso

Happy December:)
Hello everyone!
This week we were able to find 7 new people to teach…this includes two families! The 1st family that we found was a former invegatior and we taught them about eternal families and the plan of salvation. They loved it, the spirt was so strong that they told us that they were going to church but they didn’t come! Ah! I was not very happy but we are gong to stop by and see how they are doing. We are planning on making some cookies so that we can give it to them. We were focused on eternal families because their son is artistic and we told them his purpose is to get a body, and that his main purpose in life and that he will live in the Celestial Kingdom and that we need to do everything so that we can live in the Celestial Kingdom too.
This week we got to visits with Irene and nothing new is going on with her health so we are just teaching her and she is still thinking about a baptismal date, but she came to church but left the second sacrament was over…blah! We have an appointment tomorrow and we are going to go see her and see how she liked church.
We had to drop our baptismal date because her body isn’t ready to be baptized but Rita has a doctor appointment today and we are going to see her and reset the date with her, today! Everyone! I love you I hope that ya’ll have a great week! Remember Missionaries love letters!!

This week my companion and I had three thanksgiving dinners, and we were pretty full by the last one and we didnt want to eat. this week we did a lot of tracking and knocking doors! So much fun! nothing really exciting came up while knocking doors.
This week we got to met with Irene Nielson and we taught her about the Book of Mormon and why their are so many church in the world today. She still doesnt get it but she wants to know. her husband who is a return missionary is telling her stuff but she doesn't get it because his spanish is pretty bad. so she asked us about something he said and then we explain it in spanish. so we gets it. SO, she said she would come to church this sunday, they couldnt come to church because they had other stuff that they need to do. we might have to move back Rita Martinez baptism because i dont think she is physically ready to be baptized and we are going to find out this week because she has her doctor appointment today or tomorrow. so we are going to see! We are praying that she does it soon!
Well, other than that nothing really new is going on! I hope that ya'll have a great week!

We're Going to Eat and Eat and Eat :)
Dear everyone!
Hi! So I love the Hispanic culture because they are ready have Christmas lights up!! How crazy is that! Well, ya’ll don’t have to worry about me not having thanksgiving dinner because we got invited to three! Well, more than three, we just said yes to going to three thanksgiving dinners! I cant believe that is already thanksgiving next thing you know Christmas!!!!! well, anyways….I’m excited!
This week, we met with Irene (the one that has Uterus Cancer) and we went over the plan of salvation and what we need to do. We talked about baptism and she was like well, I was baptized, and then we started to go over who has the power to baptize. Then she was like oh oh there are so many churches in the world today, which one is correct. And we went over and we told her about how important it is to pray to know. So we are challenged her to know then to be baptized!! So we are going to go back on Tuesday to see how everything went. Now, with our other investigator that has breast cancer, she might not get baptized on her date because she has to have another surgery, to take out the scar tissue! So we are praying that she is able to get baptized before she has to go to surgery. We are going to find out this week!!! VAMOS A VER!!! (We are going to see)
Oh yah we did service for 4 h ours this pass Thursday, we racked someone yard and make chocolate cover marshmallows!! I had more fun racking the yard than doing the chocolate cover marshmallows because that was a pain and we had to eat the ones that weren’t pretty. A member was having a birthday party for her son and she need the help so we helped her out!
Well, that all about my week! I love you all, and don’t eat too much Turkey!! Love you all,

Give & Take
Hello everyone! Well, its starting to get chill and my companion and I are already listening to Christmas music!! We are so excited for the Holidays! Oh!! Irene Nielson is back from Mexico! I'm so excited that she is back so we went by to see how she is doing but she is kinda in denial; she knows that she needs to take out her uterus but she doesn’t want to think about it. She knows that it has to happen but she wants a couple of days of carelessness. So we decided to talk about why are we here. We talked about our purpose of life. I think that the Plan of Salvation gives people comfort why we are here. A lot of peope never know the purpose of life and what we need to do. So we talked to Irene about the 1st half and she loved it ands we are going to go back to finish it up.
So my miracle of the week, Rita Martinez came to church!!! I can’t believe that she came to church Hermana Heder and I weren’t expecting her to come to church for another 3 or 4 weeks! But she only came to sacrament; I can’t believe she came because this shows that she is in the church for life and not just to get baptized. The Lord is going to bless her and she knows it.
We also got to see Norma and she didn’t come to church, which I am highly disappointed because she promised us. But we got to watch the Testaments with Norma and her family and we found out why her boyfriend doesn’t come to church. He stop believing in the church, he stop believing that Joseph Smith is a prophet of God and he stop believe in the Book of Mormon. I cant understand why he would stop believing. So what we did is we invited him to pray to know for himself, pray to know if their really was gold plates. I mean we can only do so much.
Well, I love you all! And I hope to her from you soon!
Love always,
Sister Annie Beetso
