Hey family
and friends! Hope as always that things are sick up in the states!
So I'll hit
18 MONTHS this week as a missionary which means I'll finally cross-over and become an Elder
(because the Sisters serve for 18 months) so I've just now completed my Sister
missionary mission haha.
This week was
really great! Presidente came up to do some interviews with our Zone. On Friday
we traveled to our other district and we also had our interviews
there, and then after, our district had them too. I got so much advice from President Laboriel in both the mish and after. He says that if I keep the principles that I have now and keep improving them, that I'll be successful in my life
both temporally and spiritually (which is SICK, because he is SO successful in
life) so I was excited. Some areas in the zone had really really dirty houses
so we're fixing that this week. On a small note for mom - our house got 5 stars
so we were really good. I've learned to fold my clothes. haha
WE HAD A
BAPTISM BABY! So Didier the fire-dancer got baptized which was a really cool experience. Elder
V baptized him and I confirmed him so I really enjoyed that :) He'll be a leader in the church someday - he's really talented.
Speaking of
talents, we're going to help him in our stake talent show. He's gonna do a fire
dance and we're going to dance a little with him. We'll make sure to get a
video :)
Well not much
else to write about. Next week we'll have a new house so that'll be
sweet!
Thank
you everyone for your love and support! It all goes a long way.
I listened to
a couple different talks this week and I really liked something that I heard.
It talked about how we have to have our goals always in mind and that we have
to run for them. If we don't, we won't progress. It's exactly the same in the
gospel! We've gotta want to succeed BAD. And we have to be willing to make
sacrifices because sacrifices bring forth the blessings of heaven. The motto of
our mission is Faith in Every Footstep! I love this mission, I love the gospel
and I love my Savior.
Love all you
guys!
Pura Vida,
Elder
