Keeping the Faith!!!

Hi Mom!!!

I had to give a training this past week and you know how well i do with public speaking...i dont! i freak out! but all went well and it is a relief to have that over with. I got to go on a spanish exchange!!! that means that i was able to go into a spanish area for a day. I got to talk spanish all day long and eat authentic mexican food again!!! hopefully in 2 weeks i'll be able to go back into a spanish area, we are gonna have to open up another spanish area for hermana's because more are coming in, so hopefully we'll have an even number again.

 

Nothing profound happened this past week. Oh, i did go into walgreens because on saturday when i found out about our current situation, sister fierro asked what i wanted and all i could get out was that i wanted reeses, so when i calmed down she drove us and got those pumpkin shaped reeses :) and like usual....they made things a little better. She offered my bahama bucks but i didnt even want that, all i wanted was my life long love for reeses haha, I knew that would make you laugh :)

 

Conference was good, it was nice and spititual. There was a lot of good talks and i took some really good notes. We got to watch it at the Fierro's, so that was awesome.  Like always, they take such good care of us.  i thought of you a lot during it, especially when it talked about hardships and faith, that is us right now huh!

 

guess who i got to meet, HERMANA POTTER hahahaha!!!!!!!! we took a picture and everything, so i'll send that also but she's so sweet! she is just adorable and i hope that we get to be companions later on at some point. Sister Fierro is making me taco salad right now, so when we're done with email, we're gonna go back over to her house and have that for lunch! im super excited about that!

 

Im trying to motivate Sister Cunningham more cause she's always very depressed and lets just say that our style of missionary work is veeerrryyyyy different. So im trying to improve how she works and trying to get her to pick up on some "good ideas" for finding people. She doesnt like to get out and talk with people, so it makes it difficult sometimes because i want to talk talk talk with people and she doesnt. soooo its a little frustrating.

 

i love you soooooooooooooo very much!!! and dont worry, everything is gonna be ok!!  I love you so much and you are such an amazingly strong person so with so much faith!!! i KNOW that the Lord is gonna help us out and bless us. i have faith that everything is gonna be ok. 

 

i love you mom!!!!!! and please, if you can think of ANYTHING that i can do to help you, please let me know. I LOVE YOU!!! 

 

love you so much!!!
