Happy Father's Day!! I will say it on the actual day next year. Sounds
like dad had a good Father's Day as well (even if he did have to speak in
church), or at least a good dinner. If it is any consolation for him, I had to
speak on Father's Day as well.
The weather here is weird, and all of the members say that this weather
is not normal, it will rain really hard for like 1 hour and then it will be
very sunny and hot for 2 and then rain again. It makes missionary work
difficult sometimes.
I am doing good, I am healthy, happy and frustrated sometimes, the
mission can be an emotional roller coaster but for the most part I am happy and
I am having fun. It really is not an easy thing to be on a mission and every
mission has its own difficulties I guess. Sometimes the days feel like they do
not end and that the weeks feel like years, but it is all worth it. Just have
to keep going.
The church Elder Fisher visited |
This past week we went finding, had exchanges with the elders in
Bielefeld, we helped another member with computer problems (I played with the
dog because my companion loves to do stuff with computers), ate nachos for one
of our lunches, we had Zone Training meeting and interviews with President
Fingerle, we had a family home evening with the ward and we also met someone
from Jamaica. It was a good week.
Today we went to an old church here in Minden and that was interesting. I took some pictures that I will be sending.
During church on Sunday, we usually help with translation, sometimes
teaching a class, and give talks in sacrament meeting monthly, but not always
the case.
I studied the story of Abinadi this week and that was good, to see how
someone can be both bold and loving with missionary work.

The interviews with President Fingerle went well I guess. Nothing too
different happened in the interviews but it was good to just talk with him. I
had a good week. This coming week we do not have a lot of appointments, but it
will be okay, we will try doing surprise visits with the members.
Scripture of the week: 1 Nephi 21:15, “For can a woman forget her
sucking child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb? Yea,
they may forget, yet will I not forget thee, O house of Israel. Behold, I have
graven thee upon the palms of my hands; thy walls are continually before me.
Quote of the week "Courage is being scared to death, but saddling
up anyways." John Wayne.
Hope that you have a good week and know that I love you too!
The description on the card tells that "even though there was death, there is life" |
