Hey family!
I am still with Hermana San Francisco for this next change. Things
are great with her. We work hard to be obedient everyday and in
everything we do. We are definitely not perfect, but we try to work
hard and have faith that the lord will make up the rest.
This week we are going to have a general authority come to speak to
our mission, I have to give the opening prayer and I have been asked
to participate in a special musical number - con migo quedate Senor -
abide with me tis even tide. I have no clue who else is involved, or
how many others will be singing with me, but its really exciting!
I love reading the scriptures, I love this work. Its the hardest
thing i have ever done, and i have never been more tired, but I love
it.
Momma and daddy - I recieved a letter from you guys last week and this
week too! Thank you thank you, I love getting your letters. Yeah I
bet that is weird having the house so quiet when for so many years it
was always full. No worries, Destin and I will be home in no time. I
definitely miss your rolls mom, and your roast and mashed potatoes
dad. Since I have been here, I have had ceviche, leche de tigre (so
strange) liver, cow foot, chicken foot soup, cow lung, mate de coca -
(cocaine) and more. I have not had guinee pig yet, but I am sure its
coming. people rave about it here! I feel super weird about eating it
though haha.
To be completely honest, I have been exposed to things in the last
month and a half that have broken my heart. Its hard to see the trials
that people are facing. people open up to us so easily and break down
into tears and then tell us they dont know why they are telling us
those things. The gospel has something to offer everyone, especially
those with difficult trials, but sometimes people straight up reject
it. I want to just shake them and tell them that this is what they
are looking for, this is what they need to make their life better. but
we cant make anyone believe. one has to choose and decide for
themselves.
Rachel, hope i get your letter soon! _Chris, youre the best brother in
law ever, hope everything is going well for you. Amber, please send
pictures of the baby when you have him! is there a name decided yet?
David love you tons and tons, hope school is going well, and destin if
you read this, I love you tons, keep working hard and serving the
people in russia. Mom and daddy, thanks for being awesome parents and
not participating in child labor. I love you both soooo much.
