Well... that's probably the most
emails I've gotten my whole mission! Again, thanks to everyone who wrote me.
:)
Mom - I just have to say that I
love you Mom! You and Dad pretty much just crack me up :) Anyway, it was
alright, kind of hot. No cake, but I don't really care anymore. :) I'm glad
that you're doing well Mom. Please try not to can any of my things... I'd really
appreciate that. Speaking of, I'll be sending home a package with some stuff
(for me) that won't fit in my luggage. So if you would be so kind as to place
that package in my room,that would be great. :) And don't can it! Te amo
mamá, y será un gran día cuando nos reunimos de nuevo. Trato de no pensar mucho
en aquel día todavia, porque me falta mucho tiempo! Pero el tiempo se está acabando.
Te amo mucho! :)
Dad - Well, I counted 17 emails...
but that's still a record high!! Thanks again :) I'm sorry the Halloween things
aren't going as well as planned haha... but I'm glad you're still having fun,
especially with Marilee. :) Your line about the socks made me laugh so hard!
That's pretty funny. Well… wow, I can't believe time is going by so fast...
October's almost over... :( WHERE did all the time go?? Anyway, I probably
won't know what time to come get me on the 3rd until probably December 2nd
haha... Anyway, I love you Dad. Thanks for everything you have taught me. :)

ANYWAY so the highlight of
yesterday was getting told by this Puerto Rican lady we contacted that we
should come back when I had learned to speak in a Puerto Rican accent.
Charming, right? Little does she know that I can indeed speak in a Puerto Rican
accent, but she wouldn't be able to understand me if I spoke in it ;) Hehe no,
we did have a good lesson and dinner with this sweet member family yesterday,
and that was pretty cool.
It was actually a pretty normal
week, even though we had a few meetings. We had two on Tuesday with the new missionaries
and trainers, and then one on Thursday morning with some of the zone and
district leaders. They were pretty sweet meetings, and we learned a lot!
Anyway, I just want to close with
my testimony that I know that this church is the only true church on the face
of the earth. It is the Kingdom of God which has been established in
preparation of Jesus Christ's Second Coming. It's true that other churches have
parts of the truth, but there is, as there was when Christ was on the earth,
only ONE church that has every last tiny piece of truth that there is, and it
is the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. It is not a church formed
by man, and it's not a reformed church - it is Christ's church here on the
earth and it is lead and guided by Jesus Christ Himself through His prophet,
Thomas S. Monson. His authority is here. Revelation is here. A prophet and 12
Apostles, just like it says in Ephesians 2:19 and 4:11-14. It's all here just
like it was when Jesus walked the earth. I know it with great surety, and I
know that He lives.
Well, we'll just keep plugging
along. Thanks for everything you guys. :) I'll be seeing you pretty soon! I
love you!
