Hello my beautiful fam!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It sounds like all is well at home! Which is excellent to hear. Lots of fun things going on. Ahhhh enjoy the temple for me please.
Oh tell Ri and Janny congrats on one year! It is amazing how fast time goes by. Yay!!!!! We made it a year! Hahaha MAHM. Do not worry about me moving far away because that won’t happen… I am quite attached to my family and that quaint little place that I call home 🙂 I won’t go far I promise. (maybe there is enough room downstairs for Riley, Janet and me and my eternal companion…. maybe 😉 I am glad and also proud of you for making it this whole year! You are awesome.
Awww… man. The Hales family. I will keep them in my prayers. I admire them so much. Send them my love. I know everything will work out 🙂
My companion is from Guyana. Her immediate family are all members. She is a strong girl. It has been hard for her to come into a placer with so many struggles but if the Lord wants someone to grow…. He sends them here! 🙂
She will be ready for her mission very much so. She’ll be leaving here in a few weeks to go back home and prepare for her real mission. She is awesome!!
She calls me her first mama. I am like her premortal life mom because she hasn’t even started yet! Hahah she has so many fun things about her. She is like one of the sassiest people in the world!!! And it is hilarious. We have a lot of fun together and all.
T. one of our investigators! He is awesome. Never misses a sunday at church. Always keeps commitments and loves the gospel. He is a little slower but a great guy! We will be baptizing him this Saturday 🙂 I am very excited.
Yesterday when Pres M. was here he was talking about the importance of asking questions. He said asking q’s is good and it helps us learn and grow!
Something I have been learning from the Book of Mormon is from Nephi. I want to be like Nephi. I desire to have his faith and diligence. Every time I restart the Book of Mormon I learn new things. I have read the Book of Mormon so many times on my mission now. 🙂 I love it. I know whoever reads the Book of Mormon will learn more about the Savior and be a better person.
Anyway this week has been a good week and I am grateful for my Heavenly Father and the strength he gives to me in my life.
Anyway I love you all very much. I am looking forward to getting my last package 🙂 Thanks for everything  🙂 LOVE YOU ALL MY AWESOME ETERNAL FAMILY!!!!!
With so much love, Sister Emily 🙂
