Hello to everyone back home!!! Hope all is well as the month of July begins. Here it started out nice and rainy. But the rain was sooo needed because it cooled off the heat a bit and now it's a gorgeous day full of sunshine and a slight breeze. Great for a Preparation Day :).
This week was a bit rough. Not sure why. We worked really hard and we had planned to have a bit more going on this past week than we actually had. But that's ok. It's something that happens every now and then and you really don't know why. We still have tonssss to do here and we're still working hard, relying on the Lord, and doing everything that we can to achieve our goals and to help others come to know the truth of the gospel message which we share. We've been talking with a lot of new people and there are a lot who have tons of potential and we're excited to hopefully meet with them this next week.
It's been pretty hot this past week. I'm not quite sure how hot it got but we were sweating quite a bit, ha-ha. So like I said earlier, the rain was welcomed.:)
We finally got to meet President and Sister Pace this week!!!! They arrived Friday morning and we met them Saturday in a "Welcome Conference". They're so great and I'm really excited to get to know them a little more and to work with them here in this mission. President Pace is taller than President C. Hinckley and he was pretty tall to begin with, ha-ha. His wife is a little sweetheart and is just such a loving lady. I'm so grateful that they're here and that we can start working with them. Next week is transfers as well so President Pace will be starting to look at all of that this week and it'll be interesting to see what happens. But it's also crazy to think that another transfer came and went so fast. I hate that about the mission, ha-ha. Time goes by so extremely fast and you don't want it to.
Today as a zone we have a Fourth of July activity. We're just getting together and having some food and sports and stuff like that which should be fun. I'm sure that the pics will be coming sometime in the near future; probably next week actually. I don't have a whole lot of time left so I have to wrap this up. But just so you all know, I love you lots and pray for you all. This work is the best that anyone can ever do and I love sharing the Restored Gospel of Jesus Christ. There is nothing in the world that will bring us greater joy than by living and obeying what the Lord has commanded us.
Until next week!
