I did enjoy the package, thank you! Easter dinner was good,
we had ham, green beans, mashed potatoes, mac and cheese, and blue berry
cobbler. I swear that every meal I have eaten out hear has green beans, and I’ve
gotten used to eaten everything else but I can’t stomach green beans, it’s so
hard to eat them. Don’t worry, I still eat them, but I promise that after
my mission I will never eat them again. Our sacrament meeting went well too. We
don’t have a choir I don’t think but all the talks went really well. Saturday
night we taught a fireside on the atonement to all the recent converts. It went
really well. I surprise myself with some of the things I say sometimes. My
biggest fear coming out here was not being able to teach well and not being
able to know what to say, but it’s gotten so easy for me to just talk and I
feel so inspired with all the questions I ask and all the things I say. It’s
truly a miracle and a humbling experience that I can teach as well as I do,
because I know for a fact it’s not me, it is all the Lord. Oh sorry, the temple trip
went well, it was nice to do a session. It is an extremely small temple. You
have to call and make reservations or they won’t let you in. I think it as big
as Gila Valley. Ya ya I know I don’t take enough pictures with me in them, I’m
sorry. I’m pretty much used to rain every other day now. It’s impossible to
bike in the rain, cause it’s just not safe so we will make a lot of phone
calls, and try and set up appointments and rides to places so we can be as
productive as we can with no car. The finding has been pretty slow,
people are willing to listen to us but no one cares enough to invite us back or
change anything, it gets frustrating but people have their agency and all we
can do is keep pressing on being happy. It’s sad to see how close people are to
the truth but how missing one point like priesthood authority can make them so
lost and so far from the truth. I can’t believe that it’s already April and I’ve
already been out for 5 months, time flies! Well I love ya and I’ll talk to ya
next week.
