7/23/2012 “Relying On My
Padre Celestial….”
Momma, tell Bishop Moody that I got the shirt from Tanner and that I like it a ton (thanks Tanner).
I gained like two pounds this week, but lost it because I had an upset stomach at the end of the week... (Not good)L
We heard about that crazy guy who killed all those innocent people all the way here. That’s so nuts!. You just never know these days what people will do…It is so sad….
Yes Momma, I am healthy and yes, I have always loved what I am doing. If I didn’t love it, I wouldn’t be here. But yes, I am still Zone Leader and yes; it’s a TON OF WORK. I have to take care of 18 misioneros(missionaries.)
Well momma, this week we found a ton of people to teach. We found 11 people. I am way excited… We have been working really hard to keep finding people. I think to start the month of agosto(August) we could be having 8...yea I said 8, bautismos (baptisms). We will keep praying and working to get to that point. But, honestly the time here has pasted by so fast and I haven’t been really looking at it. But, I think it was yesterday I counted the weeks and it hit me (hard) that I am almost home. I have 23 weeks left....yea weird right? I have mixed emotions…but, I can’t wait to see you all. Every time I think about home, something just drags me back to the work. It makes me stay focused.. Honestly I have so much to work on still. I know that’s weird to say that I have 18 months in the mission field and I should have everything pretty much settled. I have to keep looking for things to make better. I have seen the blessings of doing that. One can’t be perfect but, at least we can try and make better our weaknesses. It makes us stronger and more willing to serve the Lord.
This week was kind of sucky too. At the beginning of the week, I put on some weight in two days. I was way excited.. I put on 2 pounds to lose it all in the end when I have problemas(problems)...with my stomach.... But, I feel a lot better and ready to go for this week…..
I am great and still working very hard. I think this week I learned a lot to rely on my Padre Celestial (Heavenly Father). It was kind of rough and I was having problems but, I had to turn to the Lord. I got a blessing from my companion and I prayed real hard. I think I haven’t ever prayed that long but, I felt so good when I got up in the morning. I am still working and learning.
Momma, I love you and hope you have a great week.
I am sorry I left my camera back at our house but, I will send you pictures next week. I got a hair cut so, I hope you like it.
Tell Connor soon I will be next to him on the couch...kicking his trash. Ha ha.
I love you all and I will talk to you next week:)
tu hijo
