How are you all doing? How was your weeks? Any miracles or adventures? Or just anything you would love to share?

Missionary work and life is amazing! I love seeing miracles happen through obedience. Tender Mercies of the Lord :) This area/ward when we got into it 3 weeks ago was dead.. nothing happening. (by the way, that feels just like yesterday when I was at transfer meeting!! Crazy! It is seriously true when they say that your days feels like weeks and your weeks feel like days.. ) But now through diligent work and obedience we have seen so many miracles! We have a few people who are investigating, how we found them was amazing! We were street contacting, we happen to live in the Elder's area (which is great! but everyone that we find that is interested is theirs..), and we found quite a bit for them to do. The next day we were blessed with somebody who was interested, that lived in our area! We met with her, her name is Rakshya she is from Nepal, and she brought a few friends. We met at the temple, and had a lesson on who we are and what happens in temples. We kept it brief because it was late at night and we had a curfew, but they want to know more! Which is amazing! I have seen so many miracles already in this area. Our members are beginning to trust us and to realize that we are here to work. What else would we be doing?

If any of you want pictures sent to you, let me know what kind of photos you want and I will try my best. :)

My companion and I are getting along better and better each and every day. We have a lot of differences on how we both do the work, she was trained to be a Mormon Battalion sister, she was half proselyting and half in the historic museum. She didn't know anything about full proselyting. Which is way different, one you have soo much more time on you hands. but we have been working things out smoothly. It has definitely been a learning experience for me to be her companion. I feel like I am training without actually training. It is weird and kind of hard to explain, but it is good. I love it here and I am loving the people we serve each and every day. Service is the way to love anyone.

I love you all! Hope to hear from you soon :)

love,
