Hello
everyone!
It has been a fun
week, full of trials and limited results, but lots of great experiences and memories!
Elder G got here on Tuesday,
and it has been crazy. He is a new zone leader--he was actually one of our
district leaders in Tome, so I already know him well. But he still just kind of
looks at me too much like his leader, which is weird. I’ve been feeling pretty
stressed for a couple days this week, like I’ve got the whole zone on my back,
but little by little he is picking things up and he is really excited to work
hard, which is really all you can ask for.

Right now we are just
trying to make sure that all the missionaries are really happy in what they are
doing, enjoying their time, and really working hard. And ironically, all those
things go together. The best way to enjoy yourself, be happy, and avoid all the
pessimism is to just lose yourself in the work and do your best, leaving to the
Lord the rest.
This week, we brought
a bunch of people to church in our sector! It was awesome to see that some
stuff is finally coming together for us.
Keep us in your
prayers; we are working really hard and just trying to stay focused. I love
these people a lot, even though it’s not always easy.
Pray for us, for the
missionaries, and especially for those that need us to find them!
Have a great week!

P.S. This week I learned how to make humitas--basically
tamales without meat. Super tasty--they use basil! Weird, huh? But yum. I’ll show
you how someday!
