SO I HAVE THE COOLEST STORY EVER TO TELL!!! But I got to tell it in detail so y'all have to stay in tuned next week when I have more time to write.... sorry....
But besides that we have just found endless people that the Lord has prepared and placed our path this week!
I seriously have began to feel culture shock again lately... like some of the people we have been meeting are just so poor and humble that it leaves me sadden but at the same time I understand better Ammon’s response in Alma 32:6 when he sees other afflictions with joy. Because afflictions really do humble people and it prepares them to hear and receive the Restored Gospel of Jesus Christ. I have experienced it many times in my own life and so many more times here in the mission.
Sorry there is just no time to write but I am happy and excited for another week of hard week of looking for those elect!
Choose to be happy today and Read the Book of Mormon!!

We have a new miracle! Last year I was really sick and hospitalized with chikungunya. There was a really nice nurse that attended me. We talked to her about being a missionary and what we do and why we were there serving. A year later I am knocking on doors and I find this same nurse! She invited us in to teach her. We taught her a lesson and gave her a scripture to read and set another appointment for the next day. We arrive the next day and she had read 18 chapters and accepted baptism! I feel so blessed that so many people are prepared to receive the gospel. I am sad to think this is my last newsletter. I would love to keep serving as a missionary indefinitely! But I realize that when I do come home (August 8) I will still be able to serve and minister and receive personal revelation my entire life! What a blessing my mission has been! It has changed my life!
